| Posted: | | | | And for sharing and firewall/router related problems look here. That should get you started. If you still can't connect, come back with a description of your problem and we'll see what we can do. |

| Posted: | | | | Okay so i installed VirtualBox and installed DVDP, gave sharing rights on DVDP but for some reason on the mac osx the laptop has an ip 192.168.1.X but in VirtualBox when i open DVDP at the bottom of the screen it gives me ip 10.0.2.XX, the port is the default 32847. The question is:
Should i go ahead and assign a static ip to everything connected to my router?? Including my PS3, iphones (2), laptops (3) ??
Are the ip addresses supposed to be different when running a VM??
Please let me know if i need to go ahead and do the static IP thing so i can try and get this thing resolved once and for all. Thanks for the help in advance. |

| Posted: | | | | Seems to be the same problem users had with Parallels and VMWare in this thread. Maybe the solutions work for you as well. |

You need to try and sync from the Ipod (not the desktop dvd profiler). The mobile phone option in dvd profiler is what it says. (a windows mobile phone - and that uses a different application on windows mobile). | | | Paul |
