Send to mac os x

Send a File to Multiple Remote Macs or iOS Devices from the Mac OS X Finder

A new contextual menu feature available in the OS X Finder make sending files out from a Mac faster than ever before, and perhaps even better, this trick can be used to send a file or document to multiple client recipients, be they on nearby Macs and iPads, or far away iPhones and iPod touches. The only requirement for the sender and the recipient is for iMessage to be set up on their device, which these days just about every OS X and iOS has.

This is best used for images, smaller documents, PDF’s, and the like, and any large files should probably be transferred between Macs using traditional networking or with AirDrop. Because this uses iMessage, recipients in the PC world will not be able to get the file, you would need to use standard Windows file sharing instead. But for any receiver who is in the world of Apple, this is a great way to bulk send a document right from the file system.

Send a File to Multiple People, Macs, & iOS Devices with iMessage

From anywhere in the OS X Finder:

• Locate the file to send, right-click on it, then pull down to “Share” and select “iMessage”
• Add recipients from your Contacts list, and include a message with the file/document if necessary, then click “Send”

How long it takes to send depends on the speed of you and the recipients internet connections and the size of the file. Generally speaking, the smaller the file the better.

Determining Recipient Eligibility for the File Transfer
Eligible recipients names will appear in blue, if a recipient is not eligible to receive the file because they do not have iMessage in some fashion, they will appear in red.

Incognito File Sending
One particularly nice aspect of this trick is that it does not launch the Messages app on the sending Mac. This lets you send files ‘incognito’ in a way, allowing you to keep the app closed while still getting the benefit of file transfers. This means if you keep the Messages app closed on the desktop during workdays to help focus, you don’t need to enter the world of instant message disruptions just to send people a file. Of course, with the app closed you won’t see the recipients response on the Mac until Messages is reopened, but the responses will go to your iOS devices if iMessage is configured and synced properly.

Send Files to Yourself
To send the file to yourself on another Mac, iPad, or iPhone, enter your own iMessage configured Contact. This will cause it to send out to all of your OS X and iOS devices that are running Messages, which can be helpful if local networking isn’t functioning quite well, or if you need to quickly send something over to your iPhone before you hit the road.

This ability arrived with Mountain Lion, as long as the Mac is running OS X 10.8 or later you will find these sharing features embedded into OS X’s Right-Click menu. With that said, 10.7 also supports Messages, so even older versions of Mac OS X can receive the files, they just won’t necessarily be able to send them directly from the Finder like this. These so-named Share Sheets are also available in Quick Look windows and elsewhere in the latest versions of Mac OS X.

SendToX 4+

Translate Premiere Pro to FCPX

Intelligent Assistance Software, Inc

Screenshots

Description

SendToX (previously called 7toX) brings your Premiere Pro or Final Cut Pro 7 or 6 XML into Final Cut Pro X so you can use Apple’s powerful new professional editing tools to update or finish your older projects. The lightweight application is simple to use, with drag-and-drop support and progress information. SendToX translates important metadata from your Project XML — including bins, clips, subclips and sequences — to a new Event in Final Cut Pro X with the highest fidelity of any translation application for Final Cut Pro. In addition, the application provides clear, detailed reporting after every translation.

Requirements:
• Final Cut Pro version 10.0.6 or later
• An application that exports Final Cut Pro XML (such as Premiere Pro CC, Final Cut Pro 7 or 6 , DaVinci Resolve, etc.)
IMPORTANT: Final Cut Pro 7 will not run on macOS High Sierra 10.13 or later!

Simplicity
Choose from three simple methods to translate Final Cut Pro 7 XML to Final Cut Pro X XML:
• Run SendToX and use the Open dialog to locate your exported XML file
• Drag-and-drop the XML file onto the SendToX application icon
• Right-click on the XML file in the Finder and choose Open With > SendToX
SendToX displays a progress bar during XML translation and, when completed, adds the new Event to the Event Library. The Event contains clips for each media file and Compound Clips for each sequence.
SendToX supports both Final Cut Pro X and the Final Cut Pro X Trial.

Fidelity
SendToX produces the highest fidelity translation of your Final Cut Pro Project, including the following conversions:
• Bins become Keyword Collections, complete with original Log Notes and comments
• Sequences become Compound Clips and are tagged with a “Sequences” keyword to make them easy to find
• Multicam Clips are fully supported
• Original track structures are represented by Roles
• PICT files are automatically converted to TIFF files
• 31 transitions are translated to matching transitions
• 72 video FxPlug and FxScript filters are translated to matching video filters
• 32 audio filters are translated to matching audio filters
• Layered Photoshop files are accurately translated to Layered Photoshop files in Final Cut Pro X
• Motion Tab settings (Scale, Rotation, Center, Crop, Distort and Opacity) are translated to Transform settings (Scale, Rotation, Position, Crop, Distort and Compositing Opacity)
• Composite Modes are translated to matching Compositing Blend Modes
• Constant speed changes are translated

Transparency
SendToX adds red to-do markers to items that have been changed or substituted during translation. You can easily view these markers in the Timeline Index in Final Cut Pro X, and quickly jump to a specific marker to review any change in context in the timeline.

Frequently Asked Questions:
• Does it work with .fcp project files? — The Final Cut Pro project file is a binary format proprietary to Apple. The XML must be exported from FCP 6 or 7.
• Does it work with Final Cut Pro 6 or 5? — User testing shows that SendToX does work with XML from FCP 6 and 5. We have a concern with speed changes as that changed with version 7.
• Does it work with Final Cut Express? — Unfortunately Final Cut Express does not export XML, which is what SendToX translates. It is possible, if you have an accommodating friend, to import your project (with media) into Final Cut Pro and then export Final Cut Pro 7 (or 6) XML.

How to move your content to a new Mac

Use Migration Assistant to copy all of your documents, apps, user accounts, and settings to a new Mac from another computer.

Migration Assistant copies all of your files to your new Mac so that you don’t have to copy your files manually.

• If your files are currently on a Windows PC, follow the PC migration steps instead.
• If your new Mac is using OS X Mountain Lion v10.8 or earlier, follow the Mountain Lion migration steps instead.

Check software, settings, and power

• Install all available Apple software updates on both Mac computers. Install any updates for your third-party apps as well.
• Make sure that your old Mac is using OS X Lion or later.
• Make sure that your old Mac has a computer name: Choose Apple menu  > System Preferences, then click Sharing and check the Computer Name field.
• Connect both computers to AC power.

Connect the computers to each other

• If both computers are using macOS Sierra or later, just make sure that they’re near each other and have Wi-Fi turned on. If either is using OS X El Capitan or earlier, connect them to the same network using Wi-Fi or Ethernet.
• Or connect them using target disk mode and the appropriate cable or adapter. Then start up your old computer in target disk mode.
• Or connect your new Mac to a Time Machine backup of your old Mac.

Use Migration Assistant

1. Open Migration Assistant, which is in the Utilities folder of your Applications folder.
2. Click Continue.
3. When asked how you want to transfer your information, select the option to transfer from a Mac, Time Machine backup, or startup disk.
4. Click Continue.

On your old Mac:
If you started your old Mac in target disk mode or are migrating from a Time Machine backup, skip these four steps.

1. Open Migration Assistant.
2. Click Continue.
3. When asked how you want to transfer your information, select the option to transfer to another Mac.
4. Click Continue.

1. When asked to select a Mac, Time Machine backup, or other startup disk, click the appropriate icon.
2. Click Continue. You might see a security code.

On your old Mac:
If you started your old Mac in target disk mode or are migrating from a Time Machine backup, skip these two steps.

1. If you see a security code, make sure that it’s the same code as on your new Mac.
2. Click Continue.

1. Choose the backup to transfer information from.
2. Click Continue.

Continuing on your new Mac:

1. Select the information to transfer from the backup.
2. Click Continue to start the transfer. If you have a lot of content, the transfer might take several hours to finish.

In the example above, John Appleseed is a macOS user account. If you transfer an account that has the same name as an account on your new Mac, you’re asked to rename the old account or replace the one on your new Mac. If you rename, the old account appears as a separate user on your new Mac, with a separate home folder and login. If you replace, the old account overwrites the account on your new Mac, including everything in its home folder.

After Migration Assistant is done, log in to the migrated account on your new Mac to see its files. If you’re not keeping your old Mac, learn what to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your old Mac.
