How can I set sharing of files between two iMacs?

I want to set up the sharing of files between two iMacs in my office. Both work on iOS 10.11.3 and both are on the same WiFi network. I'll Finder, select the name of the other computer under 'sharing', then ' connect under... ". ", and then enter the name and password of the other computer. On a computer, I am told that it is connected with each other. However, the second computer always shows "the connection failed". I tried the 'Registered user' choice of "Guest" and "using Apple ID", but none will establish the connection. There must be something obvious that I'm missing, but I wasn't able to find out. I also tried to see if they would communicate with Bluetooth. Bluetooth screens on each computer show the the other is detectable by the proper name, but is never establish a connection.

Connect to the same network.

Enable sharing of files on both machines.

Select the items to share on each machine and check the box in the dialog box information.

  • How can I set the xml file data button colors?

    I read an xml file to create a group of buttons. I also use a Repeater to create the Group of buttons.

    I am the created buttons, but am unable to correctly set the fill color. I get the error 'Implicit coercion of a value of type String to a type unrelated to Array' if I try to plug r.currentItem.value, even when I used an Actionscript function to convert a string to an array of 2 uints. Is there a solution of casting of simple type that I'm simply not?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    The xml file has the following format:

    < color >
    < color >
    < name > cantaloupes < / name >
    < value > 0xFFCC66 < / value >
    < / color >
    < color >
    < name > banana < / name >
    < value > 0xFFFF66 < / value >
    < / color >
    < color >
    < name > lemon < / name >
    < value > 0xFFFF00 < / value >
    < / color >
    < color >
    < name > honeydew < / name >
    < value > 0xCCFF66 < / value >

  • How can I copy just my music from my iMac

    My old Macbook (2007, snow Lep), does not have the capacity for ALL my iTunes files and I want to just load it up with my music from my iMac (2012, El Cap)

    How do I get there?

    See you soon

    Just the song files?

    Use an external drive or a high-capacity USB flash drive.  Show your music library in the iTunes window, read and classified as desired.  Open the USB in a Finder window.  Select the songs you want on the list of the songs and drag and drop out of the iTunes on the USB window (in the Finder window).  iTunes copies files of the song selected on the USB.  You can do this with one or several folders of songs selected at the same time.  If you use the view Albums or artists in your music library, you can drag and drop a full album or songs by an artist.

    Take the USB key and plug it on the MacBook.  Add the USB song files in your iTunes library on the MacBook

    NOTE: If you know how to configure the sharing of files between two Macs, you can transfer your music files directly between Macs.  However, depending on the size of the transfer and the speed of your connection network using a USB key can be much faster.

  • How can I set Adobe Reader as my default application to open PDF files?

    I am a user of Mac with OS 10.5.8. The default application for PDF files found.

    Often when I get a PDF file, I can't see the content. It comes in white... except, perhaps for the letterhead. I have to convert the 9.5 drive Adobe to be able to view the file.

    How can I set my preferences so that Adobe Reader is the default application for PDF files?

    Thank you.

    I am answering my own question. I learned that if you right-click while trying to open a PDF file, you will be asked which application you want to use to open the file. If you click read the information, instead of choosing an application, you get this great information box that gives you the ability to set Adobe Reader in your default application for PDF files. It lets you change all the pdf files, you already have the Adobe files. Yay.

    My MacBook Pro doesn't start then you want to erase and reinstall iOS. Before doing this I want to back up all my files. If I connect to imac via FireWire I can view all the files, but how can I save it it?

    If your MacBook will start in target disk Mode, follow the instructions on how to set up and use...

    But you do not want to share files, just to save them. You can make a "clone", using disk utility. For cloning utility purposes use a program likeSuperDuper! or double clone.

    How can I set up my Lexmark X 8350 printer for bidirectional printing?

    Ask Lexmark...  All material is supported by those who have made the material regardless of the operating system that you choose to use.  This includes the software (drivers) that the manufacturer chooses to create (or not) for each operating system.

    That being said - review this post above on the same exact printer with two-way communication between the printer and the information system.

    You have the latest driver installed, correct?

    Who can help, I just put a new account on my computer and deleted the old account. I backed up the old files on my external hard drive.

    Because it's a new account (even if with the same name), the restore procedure is unable to put files and folders in the same place, they came (because this place technically no longer - if yes, then the process is done and the transfer is complete). It can create a set of separate files (maybe even under a new user name, if it has been stored in this way).  If so, all you need to do is copy the data as you would copy any other files and folders (not the main files of the user profile themselves but the data in them) on the new files in your user account and who will take care of the transfer. Here is more information about the restore procedure which may help you in the process.

    Here is an article on the restore procedure:http://www.vista4beginners.com/How-to-restore-files to make sure you do this right.  It's a selective restore of a full or selective backup (not a full restore from a full backup) - but since you did a full backup, it matches your process more closely than would a full restore.

    This is a GREAT article on the backup and restore processes in Vista http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2007.09.backup.aspx , but he won't go into detail about the restoration process - considering almost as easy, of course.  But it teaches you a lot about what is possible and how to do it.  It also focuses primarily on the full backup process, but he did mention the full backup and restore process as well.

    Here is an article on the advanced use of restoration (during normal restore does not work):http://www.mayankraichura.com/post/2009/08/06/Avdvanced-Restore-via-Windows-Vista-Backup-and-Restore-Center.aspx.

    Back up and restore: frequently asked questions
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/back-up-and-restore-frequently-asked-questions

    I also found the following (but don't know if it of true or not):

    1. after the start of "backup and Restore Center."

    2. I chose "Advanced Restore"

    3. I was did not an administrator password... maybe because my account is an administrator account.

    4 choose "files from a backup made on a different computer.

    5. in the dialog box indicating "Select the location of the backup to restore", select "hard drive, CD or DVD...". »

    6. under the drop-down list box, select your drive/partition and continue

    7. If all the backups on your drive, it will show a list of them.

    8. in my case, he showed a backup, but in the backup location, it will show "backup location is not available."

    9. I was frustrated, but then I somehow just select this backup (Yes... even if he said that thebackup location is not available " ")

    10. and you press "next".

    11 guess what... no error!

    12. a window appeared asking me if I wanted to do a full restore, or I want to select specific folders or files.

    13. I selected the folders I wanted to restore and bingo... it their restored smoothly.

    14. so that the next time see a mistake, try to continue with him... ;)

    I don't know if this will help, but it does not provide much information about the process (when it works).

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
