File sharing to xbox and ps3

mark_steps

I simply cant...

Dont know whats changed but 2 weeks ago, i could. Never updated or downloaded programs since. Went to listen to music the other day using tversity and the ps3 isnt detecting tversity like it did before. The xbox used to detect tversity and it wont now.

I use norton but its set to allow tversity and file sharing.

Run xp.

IN WMP11 in options,library then file shaing, xbox, and two other devices are shown with a tick to allow file sharing.

When i search for a media device using ps3 it says no media servers were found.

Please if there are any suggestions..

and see if it works
if it does then its a versity issue
if it doesnt then its norton or something else
i prefer PS3 media server over versity anyway

whats your set up?
PS3 connected wired or wirelessly
through a router?
have you disabled the firewall when it wont see the PS3?

The ps3 is using the wireless connection through my router (netgear srn2000)

Using norton, how do i disable the firewall?

do you have internet on the PS3 while its not seeing the media server?

GRM

A new Windows 7 PC in the house? Putting one on my network killed a separate working PC<>XBox TVersity connection.

No cannot access internet.
Tried to set it up and says the following :

A connection to the access point could not be established. Check the security settings for the wirelsss LAN.

Is that the router? Its netgear wnr2000
