networking my laptop to my desktop

[wildearth2001]

I just purchased a new laptop and a lynksys wireless g router. I have my computer connected to the router via a Cat5 cable and my laptop is connected wirelessly. The internet is now working just fine on both computers but I cant get them setup to share the printer on my desktop and to share some folders. Neither computer shows up on the other computers network places list. Anyone have some adivce?

allright I got it working, turns out it was a firewall problem

the only thing I am still having problems with is sharing my itunes stuff-but I know that is a bit tricky and that this might now be the appropriate forum for that-BUT if anybody knows what to do I would appreciate the help:>
