Can't share files...

[burt398293]

Ok this is really starting to **** me off. Every time I try to share folders with MX 3.3 nothing gets added. I also recieve a load of messages saying share something or similar. I could really do with some help here. I click the share folder button and I browse to the folder I want to add and then click ok then nothing happens. Am I going about this the right way? I can't add files to the shared file types either it just resets itself to nothing. Should I uninstall and reinstall?

It couldn't hurt..........you are doing it right.

[Whoa]

double-click on the folder that u just added then your shared files will show up.

If it doesn't work the first time, try try again?

Ya, go for a clean install. Delete the program completely. Delete those registry keys too(make sure to back'em up though). Hope ya get it working.

I probably shouldn't be answering this question because I'm not really clear on what you mean by 'share files'.

You mentioned getting messages asking you to share. Do you have any files in your personal Shared Folder? If yes, hit the Refresh button. That just might clear up that problem. If you have none, may I suggest that you try to DL some audio files to show good intent. Or when you queue up, until you get some files, also send a message to the User alerting them that you are a new member.

Is it that you are not able to get files (Download) or send files to others (Upload)? They are both forms of 'sharing'. <grin>
If you are confused by the procedure (as you might well be without having any Help files to consult) may I send you to a Help source that is both complete and clear. It will explain the complete procedure.
