    I've been experiencing the same problem for several months now. Whenever I
    click on "Change" is doesn't make a difference. Nothing I have tried will
    turn Media Sharing on on my desktop.

    If you or anyone else has been able to successfully solve this problem,
    PLEASE let me know!

    I'm having a somewhat similar problem, but with password protected sharing.
    I can click the radio button to disable it, and hit apply. But nothing
    happens, it just stays the same.
