Airport Extreme with shared disk and two users on same mac issue


hi,

got airport extreme + 1tb hard drive disk sharing , worked great until wife came home (not fault :p)

setup: have 1 mac both share 2 user accounts plus have windows 7 machine. setup airport extreme drive sharing 'accounts' thought/know work windows (smb think) sure enough did , connect share both windows machine , macbook air , rather pleased how easy was.
wife came home logged on , see drive , see root folder in finder saw no files whatsoever , instead of 'sharing icon' (not sure call looks hard disk wifi signals) gets circle red bar in in finder title... disconnected shared disk in finder , reconnected entering account details again , things worked her. signed account , had same issue... see disk see nothing on means have disconnect , reconnect etc. etc.

setup 2 seperate accounts in airport utility disk sharing , use 1 account , 1 wifes issue remains, way no issue on windows 7 box.


:confused: whole reason why got can share our pictures , videos etc. on 2 machines , 2 computers 2 accounts.
 

dont use fast user switching seems fix... every time we have log off , on :(
