Application Sharing doesn't work
No matter what I do. I'm in an IM session and I click Application Sharing or
Whiteboard and then the other party accepts. If I'm lucky enough to get the Sharing dialog box, every setting is unavailable, and the top says "Not in a call." But I am in a call. I opened ports on my router, but I can't even use these features between the two computers in my LAN. I downloaded the latest Windows Messenger (5.1) and installed it on both machines in my LAN. Does anybody have any suggestions? Rojo |

Application Sharing doesn't work
Not sure yet if I have the same problem as I am a newcomer to Messenger.
I dont seem to be able to set up application sharing, either initiating a request or accepting one. I was using 4.7, now upgraded to 5.1 and I still could have issues with the set up of Norton IS which is my next investigation. I have read some info on firewall set up but not clear as yet... Interestingly i also connect to the internet via a wireless router... text chat works fine, voice connect works fine, Application sharing does not and I am not sure about remote assistance. Any adivce as to where to start? -- Regards, Nick "Rojo" wrote: I can't get any help on this. Do any MVPs have any suggestions? " wrote in message ... I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. IT DOES NOT WORK EVER.

Application Sharing doesn't work
I too am experiencing this issue. Remote Assistance DOES work but
Application Sharing and Whiteboard do not. D-Link DI-614+ Wireless Router. It used to work but think it may have quit working after XP SP2 install. Just installed the latest firmware upgrade on D-link router but that didn't resolve the problem. "Nick_Q" wrote: Not sure yet if I have the same problem as I am a newcomer to Messenger.

Application Sharing doesn't work
Same problem here. I can receive and accept an invitation for application
sharing but it doesn't reach the other party. When I try it on my LAN between two computers same problem - doesn't matter which one initiates the sharing. I have Linksys BEFSX41 firewall router and McAfee firewall 7.0. Text works fine. Glad to know I'm not alone.... "MB" wrote: I too am experiencing this issue.

Add me to your list as well, tried to tweak every setting I know but no
success. Unable to find solution, lots of people looking for answers but nothing yet.... "jlm" wrote: Same problem here.

Application Sharing doesn't work
I had that problem with a contact who was behind a hardware firewall. To
correct the problem the person behind the firewall had to do these 2 things. 1) Go to ControlPanel - Administrative Tools - Services and start the "Universal Plug and Play Device Host" service 2) Go to the ControlPanel - Windows Firewall and tick the box against "UPNP Framework" in the Exceptions tab "Rojo" wrote: No matter what I do.
