Windows 7 Win7 - Mac network issue

Possible Solutions and Troubleshooting Steps:​

1. Check Permissions on the Windows Share:
   • Ensure that the user "ccu" has full control permissions on the shared folder "M:\share" on the Windows 7 machine.
   []Verify File System Permissions:
   • Check the file system permissions on the Windows files and folders you are attempting to access from the Mac. Confirm that "ccu" has appropriate permissions at the file level.
   []Ensure Proper Network Connectivity:
   • Double-check the network connection and IP settings on both the Mac and Windows machines. Make sure they are on the same subnet and can communicate with each other.
   []Restart File Sharing Services:
   • Restart the file sharing services on both machines to ensure a fresh connection is established.
   []Alternative Connection Methods:
   • Try accessing the Windows share using different methods like using the IP address directly or by browsing for the network share through the Finder on your Mac.
   []Check for Network Discovery and Sharing Settings:
   • Verify that network discovery and file sharing are enabled on the Windows 7 machine. Also, ensure that the workgroup names match on both the Mac and Windows.
   []Review Firewall Settings:
   • Even though you mentioned that the firewalls are disabled, verify that there are no network security settings blocking the connection between the Mac and Windows machines.
   []Review SMB Version Compatibility:
   • Ensure that both the Mac and Windows machine support the same SMB protocol version for file sharing.
   []Test with Another User Account:
   • Try accessing the Windows share from the Mac using a different user account to see if the issue is specific to the "ccu" account.
2. Update Software and Drivers:
   • Ensure that both the Mac OS X and Windows 7 machines have the latest updates and drivers installed to avoid any compatibility issues.
