Filezilla Download FileZilla For

You can download FileZilla for Mac from the FileZilla Project website.

Youll get a pop-up giving you the choice of FileZilla Pro or FileZilla.

You can see the extra features in the pop-up window but unless youre using one of the cloud storage services in the list, the free version is all you need.

Click the Download link under FileZilla to get the free one.

This step will change your home page and install some extra software on your Mac.

To skip those extras and install FileZilla, choose the advanced option and uncheck all the boxes in the list.

These are the folders on your Mac, like what you see when you open Finder.

The remote files on your server are listed on the right once youre connected.

If youre connecting to a site that you wont access on a regular basis, Quickconnect is the easiest way to do that.

Site Manager lets you bookmark the site so you can connect to it without having to enter all the details every time.

Enter the address (ftp.domain.com) in the Host field, your username and password in the next fields, and the port number in the last one.

Port 21 is standard for FTP but some hosts use different port numbers.

If youre using SFTP to transfer to your MacHighway-hosted site, you would connect with Port 22222, for example.

A new window will open with all your bookmarks listed on the left.

To add a site, click the New Site button and enter the details on the right.

These can stay at the default settings for most sites so only change these if your host requires custom settings.

Double-click a folder on the server to open it, as you do on your Mac.

Then drag the file from the left pane over to the right one.

The upload speed will depend on the size of the file, your internet connection, and the speed of the server.

All the files inside the folder will transfer and will end up in the same folder on the other side.

FileZilla shows hidden files in the list, which you dont see in Finder unless youve changed a setting to show them.
