Hey Guys!
Hope you are doing fine!!

The other day I was cleaning up my MBP and customizing the Finder Sidebar and I wanted it to look simple and plain. I wanted it to display only the folders I use on a daily basis!
I clicked on the Hide button on the right of the Shared items and now I can't seem to "Show" it again!
It's no big deal but it's starting to annoy me that I can't find the options to put it back again and it's pretty frustrating in the end!

I'm using Mac Os X Lion.

You can check out the snapshot below to see what I mean!

Anyone can help me find this!?

Thnx!

MBP 13" 2.26Ghz, 160 HDD, 2GB Ram, Mac Os X 10.7.1

Are there Shared computers on the same network? That section will not be visible if there are no computers with File Sharing enabled on your network.

You can also check the options in Finder -> Preferences -> Sidebar and make sure the items under the Shared section are checked.

Yes!! My brother's MBP is on the same network! There's also my dad's laptop!
I'm not sure but i think file sharing is enabled on my brother's MBP!
