Hello,
My apologies if this is a repetitive topic but I have done numerous searches and have not found a topic which matches my problem.
I recently purchased a 15" MBP which is replacing an old PB G4. I used the PB at home and at the office and it performed brilliantly. I thought the transition to the new MBP would be seamless and it has been, save for one major issue. I cannot connect to my office server.
In the past I simply brought my PB in, connected the ethernet cable in, clicked on "Network" and my office servers would appear in the Finder.
When I tried the same thing with the MBP, I clicked on (my name)'s MacBook Pro>Network only to see a small icon of an Airport Extreme Base. When I clicked on this it pointed me back to my HDD at my home which is plugged into the AEBS.
That's all well and good and I love the ability to read my HDD at home from my desk at work but that's all that clicking on "Network" makes available to me.
I have tried manually connecting though Finder>Connect to Server>Browse to no avail.
Has Leopard made this so simple that I am overlooking a simple step or is it so complicated now that I need to bring in the IT professionals?
My productivity is in your hands. Please help!
Thanks in advance!
