I have two MacBook Pros and a Windows 7 desktop. I can see the Macs on the Windows 7 computer fine. In OS X I can see the win7 pc itunes home share just fine. I can connect to the shared drives by using ctrl-k in the finder and typing in the computer name. I can not get the Windows 7 computer to show up under shared in the finder unless I do the cmd-k and connect first.
The network is setup as follows.
Time Capsule upstairs with a airport extreme downstairs that extends the network from the Time Capsule. The windows 7 computer is hard wired into the downstairs router.
The windows 7 computer is fairly new, and I hadn't had a Windows computer for a few years. In the past I remember Windows shares showing up under shared automatically like an OS X computer does. I made sure to enter the workgroup in the advanced network settings. Anyone have any tips to get this to work?
