I have a vista system and I put in my network workgroup name and let the Braille plus search for network folders and it found one of the computers which was a xp machine but it wants a pass word. That particular machine doesn't have a pass word set up on it. Some of the problem could be on the network end since I can't get either of the vista machines to connect because they want pas words and none of them are setup with pass words.

I'll try changing the network group name to match, but what would you do ifyou wanted to share several folders? I would think that would be really inconvenient to have several mapped drives. Perhaps I can just mat the paul Henrichsen drive as all other folders are under that.I noticed that Jenny didn't change her work group name, just left it as mm. I think I had first changed the name to Family, which is what my work groupname is on my network, but it still wouldn't connect. But I'll try again.Do I have to use two slashes between each part of the path name or just twoat the beginning?I really would have like to see a document on this at the time of release asthis is a pretty important feature. -----Original Message----- From: icon-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:icon-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Chris G Sent: Tuesday, April 01, 2008 1:18 PM To: icon-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [icon-discuss] Re: file sharing and vista Hi, I'm using vista and i am able to connect to my icon using file sharing. I changed the workgroup name to match all others on my network, then went to tools map network drives and my icon music folder is now drive x.

I did that last night. I followed Jenny's instructions. I just get a connection error. It seems to be an endless loop until I press cancel to stop it.Unfortunately, I think Jenny is using xp and not vista when she sets up hersharing folders.

Are there any instructions yet for setting up file sharing on a vista computer? I have folders Shared on my computer, but am not sure how to set up the braille plus. Everything I have tried so far gives me an error when trying to connect. So far, I have tried "//PAUL/My Music" and "//PAUL/Users/My Music" Without success. Any instructions you can pass along?
