How do I access/find files on other computers on my network

[Guest]

I have a wireless network setup for internet and I assume I can also access
files/folders from the other laptops too. I goto the "network" and can see
the other laptop on the (secure) network but when I click on it to access it
it will not let me. It says: "Windows cannot access (other cpmputer name
here)" So I Diagnose it and it says:"windows confirmed that (other cpmputer
name here) is currently online, but is not responding to connection attempts.

Network Discovery is on, File sharing is on, Public folder sharing is on,
and password protectedd sharing is on.

I have McAfee the other has Norton

Please see the rather lengthy answer I gave to your first post. Please
wait at least 24 hours before making a new post about the same subject.
People who help out on these newsgroups live all over the world, may
even have Real Lives, and so you need to give them time to get back to you.

so I wasn't sure if it posted or not and I checked and it had not posted so i
created the second, then upon posting the second the first appeared as well,
