file sharing quirk or just the way macs work ?

[dazed]

Hi,

Im new to macs and especially networking them. Id like to setup file sharing so the whole machine is accessible from the other in order for me to copy libraries and apps over manually.

for some reason only the top level folder becomes accessible, all sub folders are still protected. In windows there would be a checkbox to allow all subfolders to be shared along with their parent.

Anyway to do this on a mac ?

Thanks

Try right clicking the drive the going to get info. There should be a section that says Sharing and Permission.

Try changing the permissions to read&write.

Here's a screenshot to help you out:

If you bought the app. The license is usually for one install.

However you can try to install it on another computer using your original install media.

Otherwise it'll likely break something the way you are trying to copy the app.

NO. That's not the way to do it. You'll likely break something.
