[Solved] Cant Connect To Shared Music Folder Windows 8

Postby chaz788 » 31 Jul 2014, 14:31

Hi,

I have shared a music folder on my Windows 8 PC which I cannot for the life of me get my Raspberry Pi RuneAudio to read. The settings I have used are:

Source Name: Music
Fileshare: SMB/CIFS
IP address: 192.168.0.11
Remote Directory: //CHAZ788/Music
SMB guest access: On (what does this mean? I have a login to get on to my laptop)

I get this error when ever I try and save the settings:
mount error(13): Permission denied Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

Hi chaz788,
take a look at this thread:
trying-to-access-music-on-windows-7-pc-t138.html
and see if you can solve it in the way suggested there.
