Re: Synchronizing

What kind of connection are you on, Cable modem, DSL, ADSL, or Dial up?

Did you open the Messenger ports on your router?

Hi,

Opening oprts, again, is not the solution. Please learn some basic networking.

Hi there

I have the exact same problem, and am also looking for a solution. I have
been using sharing folders for months between my laptop and our main PC on a
wireless network with no problems; yet since last week our two folders have
been "synchronizing" with it never completing. I can't figure out why. Any
help would be really appreciated. Lisa
