Thanks for trying Twister but I done all this many times. This standard procedure doesn't seem to work. Any ideas?? Steve.

Twister what exactly do you mean by this?? "I set up the Window ME machine as a user on my machine. I took the WinME log in and password and added it to the users of my OS X machine as an administrator. Then i went over the the WinME machine and put in that address that the File Sharing...

Eric, I've tried this too...... doesn't work. I've tried altering my PC password so it's the same as my Mac but this too fails. Anymore ideas?? Steve
