Initial Account Setup

Cyberduck is open source FTP software for Mac OS - to you and me that means 'Free'! You can download it from http://cyberduck.ch/ - the download link is towards the top on the right hand side of the page.

As with all Mac software, double click the DMG file that you've just downloaded to mount it, and drag the application into your applications folder. Double click to launch.

A window will appear - click Bookmarks.

Now click the + sign in the Bookmarks bar to create a new FTP site.

You need to fill in the details for your FTP account. These will have been sent by email - if you don't have FTP details, please email and I will set up your account.

You will have:

FTP Server: photoshopservices.dyndns.org

Username: USERNAME

Password: PASSWORD

Directory: /YourDirectory

In the orange highlighted section, give your FTP account a name, such as Photoshop Services FTP.

In the red highlighted section, type photoshopservices.dyndns.org

In the blue highlighted section, type the Username provided in your email.

In green highlighted section, type the directory name from your email.

Now close that window, and double click on your new FTP account in the Bookmarks bar.

The first time you visit the FTP server, it will ask for your password. Enter the password from your email, tick Add to Keychain so you don't have to remember it next time, and Login.

 

Transferring Files

To upload files to the FTP server, simply drop the files from Finder onto the blue and white stripped area. You can also create folders, rename, delete, and so forth.

To download files from the FTP server, drag the files onto your Desktop or another Finder window.
