Sharing files over a wireless network

[Dave]

I have my laptop and desktop shared over a wireless network. When I attempt
to copy a file form my laptop and paste it to a folder onmy desktop I get
amessage that Permissions from the destination file won't allow it to be
copied.

Currently my sharing for this folder is set to allow David and Everyone to
share the folder.

Why can't I copy a file from my laptop to this folder on my desktop.
Thank You

Dave

Hi
Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network settings,

As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what it is
allowed to be shared.
