#File Sharing For Microsoft To Windows 7 With A#

However it does have AppleTalk and by using an abandoned MAC (OS9) I managed to access the NAS and can copy files to an external USB drive. Therefore I can no longer access the files on it from Windows. It is more popular on the Windows PC side of the fence.I have a Promise NAS4300 server on which the Windows protocol is not working. You can transfer the files to your NFS (Network File System): It is a file-sharing protocol that the Unix-based systems like to use for sharing files, which both Windows and Macs can understand. If you used a cross-platform program (such as Microsoft Office) it will likely save files in a format that can be read by both your PC and your Mac. Files & Sharing Mac Tech Ease: Yes, in most cases you should be able to open a file created on a PC on your Mac.

Read the NAS hard drive on a Window PC. This limitation would apply to getting the data from either the NAS to the MAC internal or USB drives. Anyone know? The NAS supports 100 at least. I suspect it might be only the slow 10 megabit/s and not 100.

Borrow a modern Mac with OS X to do the transfers Maybe someone knows, and I'll probably post that as a separate post. I tried it and Disk Manager couldn't identify the drive.

But if you've 'never even seen' a Mac before this, that's going to be a bit of a challenge. Am not pursuing any of the 2 answers for reasons explained.With appropriate software, FTP is probably your best bet. IN other words want to access the files on the NAS drive from a Windows PC.Not very familiar with this website yet, Do I need to close this question. Don't know if this would be possible.EDIT 4/10: You'd think they would have a suitable utility as this must be a fairly common problem!Anyone interested, have posted new question: 'Does anyone have experience recovering the files from a Promise NS4300 server disk?'. Drawback is that I have no knowledge of Linux and when I tried the built-in utility to list the shares on the NAS it couldn't find the NAS.PS: Promise support last suggestion was to use a windows data recovery utility to try and recover data off the NAS drive it. Linux.Again I may post that separately.

Any computer, not just those using Windows or Mac OS, that can make a standard HTTP connection should be able to get files from your computer via Web Sharing.Connect from Mac OS to a Microsoft Windows server product via AFPYou can add AfP to Windows 7 with a 3rd-party product, i.e. But you're after the from mac to PC direction which puts you at needing a Mac FTP client that will 'put' files (one of the above), or an ftp server running on the Mac (possibly also one of the above) from which you can 'get' files on the PC (unless the NAS does ftp itself, in which case, no Mac needed and you'd be happy.)Web Sharing -Windows-based computers can connect to your Macintosh via Web browsers (HTTP) when you have turned on the Web Sharing feature in the Web Sharing control panel. Here is another freeware.Fetch is a good one but not free, and I don't know if they can get you a version that works on OS9 easily now (they certainly made them then, but I doubt that what's presently downloaded runs on OS9, and I'm not seeing a link to old versions.)An ftp:// url might work, but if it does, you can run an FTP client on a PC, too. You could hope you are lucky and there is some already on the Mac.Tucows - this one is freeware does list a couple of versions supporting classic (Macspeak for Pre-OSX systems).This one is shareware.

Some examples include Miramar's PC Mac LAN and Thursby's TSTalk. Some examples of software that allow this are Dave by Thursby software, MochaSofts' Mocha SMB, or DoubleTalk by Connectix.Connect from Windows to non-server Apple products via AFPYou can install software on the Windows-based computer that allows it to connect to AFP services.
