The PC shows it belongs to a homegroup, but when I try and join the laptop to the Homegroup PC, following the instructions, including the seizure of the password, it fails.
I have two computers in a small home network, both running Windows 7. A laptop and the other a PC. The two appear in the network on each computer. The PC shows it belongs to a homegroup, but when I try and join the laptop to the Homegroup PC, following the instructions, including the seizure of the password, it fails. I want to share photos, files and documents, etc.
Any ideas.

Here is another method that doesn't use homegroup. I've used this between two machines of Win7 and between Win7 and Win8 machine, as well as the topic Win7 and WinXP. I am frustrated with Group residential everything and currently have disabled entirely.

Version 5.0 on a MAC doesn't let me switch between tabs. Can I open a new tab, but when I try to go in a different tab, it shows me just the content of the tab opened most recently. Help!
In addition, pop up blocker works for a while and then stops working. I have to close and restart Firefox to make it work again. Help!
I had the same problem, but with Firefox 4.0. My first thought was last updated to Firefox (after of course restarting FF), but it did not help and I had the same problem.
Among others, I had an extension installed and enabled called tile tabs 4.10 I thought could easily create this problem. I went in my Add-ons Manager and disabled, restarted Firefox and tabs worked properly again. Unfortunately, the extension of the tile tabs is my favorite Firefox Add-on and I use it almost every day to manage my web tasks. I went to the page Add on for tile tabs and saw that there was a notice that version 4.10 did not work properly on Mac OS and install version 4.9 of the extension. I saw that they had a new is not-yet-seen version 4.11 who has tackled the problem of Mac OS, installed, and everything seems to work properly.
I have no idea why all of a sudden I had this problem as I don't had not updated Firefox or the extension of the tile tabs recently. Also, obviously this could not solve your problem, especially if you have the module installed and active. But our problem started at the same time for both of us it seems based on your post time, so its probably not a coincidence.
But its worth a quick glance and you can check other extensions if you don't have the legs of tile that might be the cause of the problem.
