Ok, this might be a silly question, so excuse me if i am missing something very simple.
I have 2 macs, 1 g5 imac running panther equipped with an extreme card, 1 airport express and 1 mac mini again with the extreme card.
Currently I use the aiport for both macs as and when needed to access the internet wirlessly as my mini is used through my telly and the imac is in the spare room (occasionally it gets taken downstairs).
It's all good aiport seems ok 98% of the time (inexplecably I get days of bad reception for no known reason) anyways I wanted to be able to in a way synch my macs - well not quite but I wanted to say send a file and save it off on my i mac that I created on my mini and vice versa without having to use my ipod as a carrying donkey.
so well, when both macs are on I have tried to look for their respective drives - i have even creaed a specific shared network and still i cant seem to find my imac / mac mini.
How do I set this up - I possibly need to apply something in sharing preferences but I am reluctant to fiddle around as I tend to break computers.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
