I'm tring to share files between my Mac (G4, OS 10.3.9) and my wife's Dell laptop running Wilndows Millenium. We just need to get some files off so we can send the Dell in for repair. I am NOT terriblly versed in Windows machines.
The Mac sees the laptop, but when I go to connect, I get ths prompt: "The alias, "LAPTOP" could not be opened because the original item could not be found." For a while, it was asking for a password, but it still gave me the same prompt. Now, it's not even asking for a password (I did change the name of the PC to see if that made a difference --- no luck).
I will, admittiedly, need some fairly detailed instructions if anyone can help.
Example: If I'm supposed to turn off a firewall, I don't know how to do it.
Thanks.
