Easy File Sharing with Remote Macs and PCs
OS X's Personal Web Sharing feature is an easy way to share large files with Mac and PC users. The only software needed on the remote computers is a web browser. Here's how to use this handy OS X feature.
- Choose System Preferences from the Apple Menu and click Sharing. Under Services you'll see a list of available sharing options.
- Choose Personal Web Sharing and click Start.
- Make note of the address provided at the bottom of the window and close System Preferences. (The address will look something like http://10.180.75.99/~cmcveigh/)
- Return to the Finder and choose Go>Home. Find the Sites folder, open it and toss out the index.html file and the images folder (unless you've already created your own web page)
- Place the files you want to share with remote Macs and PCs into the Sites folder and send your address to the people who need access to your files. Voila, easy file sharing.
