DannA Posted February 17, 2002 Share Posted February 17, 2002 Hi, I have in the past succesfully networked my PC (win98) with an iBook (OS8.6) and we have worked on FM 5.5v1 databases with no problem. The files resided on the PC and were accessed with the "open remote" option from the file menu of the iBook. Does anyone know of a compatibility issue between Os 8.6 and windows XP?? because with this new computer running XP i can't open FM files on the iBook and iBook can't open on the PC. I am also trying to have the files reside on the iBook as my 1st option. If i can't get it to work i will go back to having files reside on the PC. When i run windows emulation software on the MAC then both machines "see" each other in the network neighborhood, and files can be transfered etc. So i don't think it's a network hardware issue. Any ideas?? --Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
