if you are connected to a media server or WMP on the n900 and can stream stuff you can also go into file manager and browse the server manually..its in the top directory, you should see 'n900' and 'shared media'... you can then copy things and paste them into your n900... not sure if it works the other way round, n900 to PC

Once you are at file-level, open menu at top of File Manager screen, and chose <Copy> (and you can also <Share> and <Sort>).

You cant yet share FROM N900 TO PC since the N900 does not work as a UPNP Media Server. Though someone might make an app for that.

To share items between network machines you can use ftp client servers. Again based on apps. Sharing a drive on a network wont work probably since the N900 is not samba enabled.
Rygel does this. You can also use a chroot and MediaTomb. Works fine to stream to PS3.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH ! It worked for me
