I recently changed my server OS over to Windows 7. Since then I have not been able to made my multimedia share from my AppleTV. As i have done with my previous server OS's I created a special User for the appleTV and then verified that I am able to map the share from other computers sucessfully. But when I try to do it from my appleTV i get the following error":
I have verified that it is connected to my network and internet.
When I try to add the share to the appletv I use
I have also tried to browse for my server but I can only get as far as "Workgroup", I get an Error: Operation timed out. I have also disabled the Windows 7 firewall and put "Everyone" in the share for testing.
Anyone have any other thoughts? Is is something specific to Windows 7 that im missing?
Code:
"Unable to Connect: Could not retrieve directory information. This could be due to the network not being connected."
I have verified that it is connected to my network and internet.
When I try to add the share to the appletv I use
Code:
"smb://Uname:Pword@SrvName/ShareName"
