Software To Share Documents Across Various Devices?
Dec 1, 2012
I am a student and looking for a way to share my documents across various devices.
Asus android tablet
Android phone
Windows 7 laptop
Windows 8 desktop
Mac
I have heard of various software that do this like google docs, dropbox, safe sync from trend micro, skydrive and similar ones. But my problem is that they dont update the documents, for ex: I update it on word form one pc, but it doesn't get update online so when I have to resync everything, drag and drop would be nice and if it came with conforence calling it would be better. I don't need anything "secure" from antivirus companies becasue its just school HW and documents. What would be the best software for this?

I have a new Samsung laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium and an older desktop with XP running in it. I have a Servioo(same as Samsung file share) program running in my desktop XP which allows me to view my vid/music/photos through my Samsung BR player.I can now view my documents from my new laptop back through Servioo and on the BR player. However I cannot see anything on my laptop from my XP desktop...it shows my Servioo program but it is unable to view anything. I'm trying to view it through the Windows Media Player.Is there a way to do it? I just can't get the "door" to open. sunlaker has chosen the best answer to his/her question.Click here to view the answer that was selected.

I have set up a wedding budget using microsoft office however I can not figure out how to share it. I want it to update when I input costs so that when I am logged on or my partner is logged into his profile the document is the same. If he inputs a cost on his profile I want to be able to see it updated on my profile.
We are using the same computer.

I have been unable to connect to anything on my wired network, for about the last week. I don't remember making any changes however, I just became unable to connect.I having done a little troubleshooting.1. I can connect to the shares of my Windows Home Server if I use the IP address. The name does not resolve.2. Flushed DNS and restarting DNS server. Flushing DNS works on one client, to allow browsing by the name & restarting DNS works on the other. However neither works after a restart.3. Only my Wifi clients are experiencing this issue. My wired clients, desktops, PS3, Xbox 360, and Boxee can connect perfectly.This issue is not limited to my server. I can't connect to shares on my desktop, nor print to my wired printer.Some network background:I have DSL through CenturyLink and have a Linksys E2000 router.

My computer crashed, I did a backup system restore with a thumb drive from Dell. I was able to copy my documents to an external drive. It restored the folders but when I click, they are empty. But if you click on "Properties," they contain files but I can't seem to get to them. Does what I said make any sense at all?

Is there a way to find out if the "My Documents" folder of a certain users account folder has been renamed to something else? If so how does one find which folder was renamed? And can it be renamed back to "My Documents"? If so, how is the best way? yes, this is on a Windows 7 machine.

I have 2 users defined to my W7 computer, lets say Jack (administrator) and Jill (normal user). Both users have had their "My Documents" moved to a second disk drive E: as "Jack's Documents" and "Jill's Documents".
Recently (I first noticed it on 26th August) both users started to see two "My Documents" folders on the E: drive in Windows Explorer. One contains Jack's files and folders, the other Jill's files and folders. I'm sure (but have no proof) that Jack used to see "My Documents" and "Jill's Documents", and Jill used to see "My Documents" and "Jack's Documents".
I've searched for information about this problem but can only find examples for duplicate "My Documents" folders for a single user.

When I click on "My Documents" I often then go to the Desktop by clicking to the right of a small window/bar at the top. It then opens up "Desktop", which is just above it in the"family tree". I click on "Desktop" to quickly go to it.
Suddenly this bar has disappeared. How to I get it back again?

I have recently received a Dell XPS 17 laptop and when I open an internet browser or a document/folder and maximise it I can still see about 1cm of my desktop. I don't know how to explain what is it but the close button (X) and minimise buttons etc arent at the top of the screen, they are 1cm below because the browser etc doesnt fill the screen. When I am playing games it uses the whole screen I was just wondering why it is leaving a gap, it used to fill the whole screen then suddenly started doing this. I am also using Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit and I am using the correct resolution which is 1600x900

I have a friend with the same problem as I found by searching "Mydocuments and local user setting have all disappeared" but when we checked the hidden box, she can see the main folders but all of the files - docs pictures excel files - are gone. The folders all appear empty but she can open them from Recents and the show to be in her previous folders that are now gone. She had several pop ups that was telling her the C drive was corrupt and windows files were missing so I had her unhook the internet and they went away. Her Norton had run out so she was going to uninstall it and reinstall the version that came on CD so she was unprotected for a few days. but when she ran the new Norton and did a scan, all it showed bad were the cookies. We also downloaded Ad-Aware and scanned for spy junk and it showed nothing. The PC is an HP but I don't know more right now. It is only 2 months old. I am going to her house in the morning to see what I can find out but if you, saint19, see this tonight, can you give me any pointers on where to look? Her desktop image went away along with all the shortcuts except Recycle Bin, MS Word and Excel.

the documents i'm trying to view was typed in my last computer using microsoft word. i saved them to an usb, but when i tried viewing it on my new computer using wordpad all i got was numbers and symbols. so is this because they are different programs or what the hell? i'll have to stop by my local library i suppose.

I have used 7 (64 bit) long enough to be confident in using it as my main Windows machine.
Part of that is being a print server. I am staying with Workgroups to allow connecting to Linux boxes using Samba.
I installed the printer just fine.
But I can't see how to share it.
Google searches helped me verify some things.
Under Network and Sharing Center > Change Adapter Settings I do have File and Printer Sharing enabled.
Under Advanced sharing settings I have set the radio button to Turn on file and printer sharing.
But when I go to Devices and Printers in Control Panel, and go to properties of the printer, I do not have a sharing tab. Or anything share related on the context menu.
I can access folders on other machines, and I can share folders, but I get prompted for a password on other machines even though I have disabled passwords. That is a lower priority.
How can I share the printer?

There's something very basic about "sharing" that I'm misunderstanding. Does the term "sharing" mean sharing with other computers on the network?
If so, then how do you share folders with another user on the same computer? Here's an example: Each of my sons has a Standard user account on the same computer. So 'A' can't access 'B's files, and 'B' can't access 'A's files. They want to be able to share certain folders, like pictures and music.
They could simply copy folders they want to share to the Public user folder, but that's not a practical solution. How do users on the same computer share files and folders? Is it possible to put restrictions on sharing ('B' can view some of 'A's photos, but he can't edit them, etc.)? There's got to be an easier way than fiddling with access permissions, which often ends up with unintended consequences.

I recently purchased a new routeur, D-Link's DIR-825. I am quite happy with it's performance so far, the main reason I bought this model was that it has a USB port so that I could use a HDD as a network.I installed the "Shareport" utility provided by D-Link and yesterday I finally got around to plug my HDD into the routeur. Things went smoothly and I was able to "connect" to the drive from my home computer.I then turn on my laptop, which is my work computer, and tried to connect to the drive. Shareport told me that it was already connected and needed to be disconnected.I mean the whole idea behind me buying a routeur with a USB port was to have a hard drive that would serve as a network backup that could be accessed by both computers at any given time.Besides, if only one computer can be connected to it at a time that's not what I call sharing, the "Shareport" utility should have a different name then.Now is that inherent to this type of setup or is it simply a show of the software limited capabilities?

I have a laser printer that is abandoned by Canon (ImageClass D761).However, I have an old XP notebook that I can print to it..Can I share the printer through XP and print to it via Windows 7? There are no drivers for it in Windows 7..Or will I just have to make PDFs of everything I want to print and send them to the XP notebook and print from there.....?

Okay, so I've set up network drives before going from XP to XP.. but a long LONG time ago and can't really remember what I did. Looking through Windows 7 also, it's all changed and a bit confusing :$.
I have two computers.. my main computer running Windows 7 64bit, and my server computer is running XP Pro 32bit. I want to have my server's 250GB drive (the only drive in the computer) accessible via my main computer as if it were plugged in.. so under 'my computer' it'll show something like "Server X:", X being the drive letter giving to the server's drive, and when I double click it I'll see Windows, Program Files.. everything and un-restricted.
Could anyone help be get this sorted and set up?
If anyone has links to a tutorial / step-through that would be very much appreciated.
I need my server (localhost) computer up and running as soon as I can as it's for my home business.

I'm trying to access a share on a Windows 7 machine from a media player. My authentication goes through and I connect fine for 10-30 seconds, but then the connection just times out. I can reconnect from the media player, but it always disconnects again.
I've already changed the "Network security: LAN Manager authentication level" to "Send LM & NTLM responses". I wasn't able to connect at all before that.

I upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium from Vista on my desktop. My home wireless networ was running smoothly. Since the upgrade I am no longer able to access my printer (Canon i9100) from my laptop running XP. My XP recognizes the network complete with my W 7 desktop and my son's Mac mini. The XP just will not connect with the printer the printer is a USB printer that functions well if directly plugged into the XP. When I try to print from the laptop with the printer plugged into the Win 7 desktop tho, it doesn't find the printer.
When I try to "add a printer" to the XP through the Win 7, it keeps wanting to download the correct printer drivers but cannot find them anywhere. I have the original disk that contains the drivers but it will not load onto Win 7 (doesn't like 64 bit). Canon does have drivers for 64 bit so the printer works fine on Win 7. Is this too complicated a post? It's late and I'm pretty frustrated with the whole subject.

I am running Windows Home Premium on a HP a1624n computer. I was trying to find a file the other day and what I did was sort a folder contents in My Documents by date modified to find the file. Great! I found the file I was looking for. The problem is, now the My Documents folder is not displayed correctly and I can't figure out how to fix it to display correctly. For example folder names in My Documents are:Word Docs, System Stuff, ## Outlook, My Scans, Temporary Copy Spot, Nexus One Related etc.These are displayed in that order. By my question, I want the folders displayed in order by name meaning the list above should be Left to Right:## Outlook Files, My Scans, Nexus One Related, Temporary Copy Spot, Word Docs etc. If I select : Arrange by Name, I see a list of all files inside of all the folders. If I select Arrange by Folders, I see the list folders in the incorrect order I have listed above. If I select any other option, I am presented with file lists of all files in all the folders in My Documents.How do I get this fixed to display correctly? I haven't tried a system restore as these files are personal files and System Restore doesn't touch them.
