Hi all, could use some advice...
I need to regularly transfer files from a Macbook (Firewire 400) to an iMac (Firewire 800). What's the easiest way?
1) Both machines connected to our wifi. No ethernet cable connection. I can't seem to figure out how to transfer files over our network. Should this be possible?
2) How about target mode? In this case, would the following cable work? Firewire 400 to Firewire 800, male to male.
3) I also have a 400 to 800 adapter. Should I get a FW 400 cable instead?
I'm getting a bit confused about cables on Amazon. I need male to male, right?
4) Both machines have USB 2. Any options here?
Many thanks!
