Instead of trying to add the folder from the PC to your Mesh with the existing name, go to
www.mesh.com, sign in and go to the folder on the Live Desktop and change the folder properties to sync with the newly added PC.
It should then offer you the shared Mesh folder on the new PCs desktop as a shortcut.
Double clicking when it is faded light blue folder, brings you to a windows titled:
Synchronize folder
The text at the top of the window says "Synchronize folder with this computer."
The name cannot be changed/
The location is the path to your desktop folder.
Next to this is browse.
At the bottom of the Window is OK and Cancel.
OK accepts the default offered location - your desktop.
If you click OK, it will become a darker blue folder (still light blue) and it is now fixed to your desktop.
If you click Browse, you can navigate to a folder of your choosing.
Once you have reached that folder, click OK and accept the warning about merging with an existing folder and potential for conflicts.
