    By pinging each ip address I am now sure that the network is working , maybe the way I have set up file sharing is wrong ???

      Problem solved , had to learn about permissions and sharing between the two different os's basically solved the problem by creating a folder , sharing the folder then drag and drop everything I want into that folder
