Transferring Information Between Two Apple Computers

If two Apple computers are not connected by a network, you can transfer information between them by connecting them with an Ethernet crossover cable (in effect creating a small network of just two computers). You connect the cable to each computer’s Ethernet port and then turn on file sharing on both computers, or configure the computers’ Ethernet settings to create a small network. For more information about configuring such an Ethernet connection, see Mac Help.

You can also connect two Apple computers using a FireWire cable. You can then use FireWire target disk mode to transfer files from one computer to another. For more information about using FireWire target disk mode, see “FireWire Target Disk Mode” on page 49.

If you have an Internet connection, you can also transfer files via the Internet to your iDisk storage area on iTools, where you or another iTools user can download them. For more information about iTools, see “iTools—Free Internet Services for Mac Users” on page 32.
