Tips to Connect Two Mac Laptops
Hello Friends,
Mac's laptops are manufactured by Apple and are known for their sleek design. However, the outside appearances of Mac's laptops are not only for the show. There are many features of the operating system that make Mac laptops, especially convenient. One of these key features is the ability to connect two Mac laptops and share information from one laptop to another. There are several methods to connect Mac laptops, however the most convenient is using a connection cable because it does not require a wireless network or Internet connection.
Instructions
1. Plug the connection cable into both Mac laptop computers. If one of the computers you are using is a Macbook from 2008 or later, you will not be able to use a firewire connection. In this event, use an ethernet cable to connect the two laptops.
2. Open "Migration Assistant" on both computers. To do this, open the "Utilities" folder and locate "Migration Assistant."
3. Select which computer you would like to share data and which computer you would like to receive data. You will have to make your selection on both computers.
4. Enter the code provided to you on one of the computers. A numerical code will appear on one computer. Type this code into the other laptop computer to complete the connection.
5. Select the types of data you would like to transfer. There are several categories you can transfer including desktop, documents, applications and utilities.
Thanks and Regards
