[QUOTE="drunken, post: 633578, member: 53079"] hi there everyone, recently picked up a macbook and after getting over the first steep learning curve, adjusting to keyboard shortcuts etc I have to say I'm really liking my new machine :) I'm trying to set up sharing so I can transfer some files accross from my older pc. Normally I would just follow one of the many online guides there are for this process - such as this one [url]http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=54704[/url] however I fall down on the first hurdle - it says to go to (Applications > Utilities > Directory Access) well I'm in (Applications > Utilities) and guess what I don't have 'Directory Access' as an option I have 'Directory' and 'Directory Utility', neither of which is the right one (I think) - can someone please point me in the right direction or tell me where I'm going wrong? many thanks if you can help :) [/QUOTE]
