Rest two fingers on your trackpad and click with your thumb (my preferred digit) or another fingerįrom the pop-up menu, select “Share > AirDrop.” Below is an example, though your menu items may differ. SHAREit is the fastest cross-platform app for Android, iOS, PC & Mac.Select the file(s) and click your right mouse button.Navigate to the file (or files) you would like to transfer, select it (or them), and bring up the contextual menu. Just make sure they are both enabled, and Apple will do its magic mojo to ensure optimal performance. Note: Do you need to worry about telling your Mac to use either WiFi or Bluetooth? Nope. The only thing to keep in mind is that the time it will take for the file to transfer will depend upon its size and whether or not your AirDrop connection is using WiFi or Bluetooth.
This process will work for any type of file, small or large (there are no file size restrictions I am aware of).
#SHAREIT FOR MAC PRO HOW TO#
What I want to show is how to take a file and “share” it. We have quite a few posts on how to take screenshots, so I won’t get into the finer details of such. How to Share a File Between Mac’s Using AirDrop How do I do this? Well, AirDrop, of course! These files need to ultimately make their way to my Catalina Mac for a little Photoshop love and final inclusion into the posts you read – including this one. Rocket yard posts many blog articles about macOS 11, so I use my personal laptop to verify other author’s submissions and take tons of screenshots for posts I scribe on topics related to Big Sur. Why? Because the 2018 MacBook Pro I use for work runs Catalina, but I have upgraded my 2013 MacBook Pro to Big Sur. In this post, I’ll be using Big Sur on one Mac and Catalina on the other. Plus, a screenshot is worth 1,000 words, as the saying goes (or something like that). There are many similarities but enough differences to make it worth not bailing on the creative endeavor. My friend Steve Sande recently wrote a great post, “ AirDrop Files From Your iPhone or iPad to Your Mac.” I had to chuckle when he submitted it for publication, telling him that I was actually in the middle of putting screenshots together for a post on how to AirDrop files between two Macs.
