Hi Ron, No, I don't think so anyway, the share was set for the entire My Documents folder - including all it's sub-folders. Below that is the My Pictures folder and below that I have various sub folders. The one that seems to be the one most noticed because it has my most recent photos in it is in a Canon sub folder with sub-folders below that named for the date the photos were taken. The Canon Upload Wizard adds the date named folder and puts the picture files into it during a dialog that comes up when the camera is connected via USB cable. Nothing I am doing has done anything differently for the photos that can be copied verses the ones that cannot. I just had a few pictures in a few folders that caused this error and when i looked into them, I noticed that every one I had a problem with was a vertical verses a horizontal picture. At least 90% of my pictures seem to be horizontal so it only happens in some folders. I'm thinking that perhaps there is some Canon program that is doing something with the vertical shots to make them so they appear rotated correctly for Windows and that is somehow opening the files in a manner that will not allow them to be shared from outside the system? I guess I should have a look at the Canon camera site and see if they have any leads for me.
