Networking & wireless: Copy folder from one computer to another on a wireless netwo
Copy folder from one computer to another on a wireless netwo
by jdavis1137 - 12/4/07 12:58 PMI have a wireless network with a XP desktop and a Vista laptop. I would like to copy "My Documents" folder from my desktop to my laptop, so I can access all the files in "My Documents" folder on my laptop while I am away from home and not have to leave my desktop turned on. I can of course access "My Documents" on my laptop wirelessly when I am in range, my house, and my desktop turned on. I have tried several times but unable to figure it out, as I am not real knowledgeable yet with a wireless network. I would sure appreciate a step wise help to my problem. Thank you

Though it is only a free trial for 14 days, after that it's $30. Just install it on both of your computers, disable any firewalls (or add Network Magic to the trusted list), and you should see your other computers and documents.
