    When I hook my Playbook to the PC via Desktop I can backup so it is connected but I get the above message when trying to view files. I am unable to move any files on to the PlayBook. I have made sure File Sharing is turned on on the PlayBook. Also, when I connect my Bold to the PC I can see the files on it but not the files on the SD card.

    Any assistance would be appreciated.

    I have the same problem and certain that it is a computer problem and not a PB problem. My problem is not solved yet, but this might work for you: (as it did for others):

    - File sharing on PB must be on
    - Turn WIFI sharing off
    - Protect File sharing on PB with a password
    - In RUN > MSCONFIG > SERVICES > "Tcp/ip netbios helper" MUST BE enabled (and restart computer)

    Good luck!

    Tcp/ip netbios helper is already enabled on my PC but I still get the error message. I have just run a Playbook backup to my PC so I know they recognise each other. As soon as the backup is done, try to access Files in the Desktop software and get this message.
