Can't view Web Folder

Post by jsc572 »

I have an airsharing app installed on the iphone, so with wifi connection, I can view files on iphone as web folder under "my network places". XYP does not see any contents in iphone folders when it connects to the wifi network. any idea?

Can you see these folders via std Win Expl or any other FM product? So we can know what works...and what doesn't...may be of some help in tracing it.

Do you have "Show My Network Places" ticked in Configuration -> General?

yes, I can see it in explorer and DO.

it does appear under "my network places", but the list shows "location currently not available" even though the app is open on iphone.

In the next version you can try this. It might help:

Code: Select all

    + Tweak: Now you can browse the network with broadest possible 
      "catch them all" mask.
        [Settings]
        ShowAllServers=1

I am unable to view a Web Folder with XYP on XP.

Using XYP I am able to browse to the desired location, and it is added as a location in My Network Places, however when I select it I get error "Location currently not available".

Enabling the tweak "ShowAll Servers=1" did not help.

Windows Explorer behaves correctly with this web folder.

I saw other thread discussing this which suggested XYP may need to be enhanced.

Any suggestions? Thanks for your help.
