xbox 360 and Zune file sharing?

[topher91]

So I've just updated my 360 to have the Fall 06 update. Apparently you can use this Zune software that enables you to share your media files from your PC to your 360 including videos, music and pictures......

Now for some reason, I have followed all the steps to make this work but my 360 still can't find my PC on the network!!



Can someone help me out??

So media sharing is turned on in Zune right? Mine took 2 tries to do it, the first time it couldn't see the PC so I just turned off media sharing in Zune and closed it, restarted, enabled media sharing and the 360 saw it just fine .

my 360 couldnt see it at first as well. Then i restarted my router and it was all well.

I just restarted Zune, it was weird but as soon as I turned media sharing on again the computer showed up. Hope it works for you.

whats the full name of the software? or a link.

You go to http://www.xbox.com/pcsetup and it will tell you to download a program called "Zune"

Ok didn't try that yet but I did reset my wireless router and that did nothing.

hmm, sometimes you might have to open ports on your router for your 360 to see your pc.

That's what I wanted to try.... I totally forgot.... I thought I did port forwarding for my torrent DL and limewire.

I'll try this tonite too.
