Hi, I'm at my wits end with all this at the moment. After setting up a ftp account that my clients can use to get files to me that are too big for email, I find thet if I use 'fetch' as a ftp client it works. For a couple of my clients, who don't have ftp apps, they use the mac 'connect to server' part of the mac os. Problem is, it doesn't work. It works on other peoples ftp's but not mine. The ftp I created is: login = path = /home/myusername/upload The password to this I have = puppydog (i'll change all of this when I get it working) I put in 'ftp://ftp.mydomain.co.uk' I was expecting to get to another window that asks me for 'Name' and 'Password' but this just takes me to a 'pub' folder. I can't find a folder on my server called 'pub' nothing can even be put in this folder as 'pub cannot be modified'.
Anyone use a mac to do this? I'm actually on the point of giving up and blowing out this whole cPanel thing. Help, why does this have to be so complicated??????? Hi, as I can't seem to find the answer to my problem, I decide to 'submit a ticket'. I'm asked for server's ip? I can find this by running a 'shell'.
What in God's holy trousers is a 'shell'??? I'm asked to do the same for a 'support number' So I can't get any support.
Can anyone here help?? Why does my ftp default to a folder called 'pub' Where/what is the 'pub' folder, I sure can't find it.
Sick and tired of coming up against brick walls. Re: Help, why does this have to be so complicated??????? Try this: from your MAC, login to cPanel. On top left corner where you see the Find box, type in Dav and hit enter. In the result you see one item, Web Disk. Click that icon. On this page that opens, if you have not been here yet, create a web disk login account.
Once you do you'll see it listed on this page at bottom. To the right of the correct account you just created, click the Access Web Disk button. On the next page you find several items. Click the drop down menu under the 'Apple' icon you see and select your OS and then hit Go to save file. From that page. Re: Help, why does this have to be so complicated???????
Thanks for the info, I seem to have started with a simple query and spiralled into things I don't understand. My webhosting company changed me to this system a couple of years ago, sent a link and pretty much told me to get on with it. So the small amount I do know I've picked up myself.
My problem came when I set up the ftp for my clients to upload files too big to email, a week later one of them said it didn't work. He was trying to use the mac 'connect to server' option. I have found out just now that it doesn't support upload (although it would still be good if he could at least access the server to download his completed jobs).
I'm only trying to do it this way so I can tell them how to do it. I can't find a 'pub' folder locally (on my computer?) so that's still a mystery Unfortunately, I have no idea what WHM is so, now I can't get a support ticket, my only source of information is this forum. For this I am grateful. Many thanks for your reply, although I think I'm probably just in over my head. Where can I find out about WHM?
If you’re a Mac user, you know you have to do things a little differently than the people who use PCs. That’s okay, but it can lead to some confusion and annoyance – especially if you’re a new Mac user and having trouble getting what you need. Want RealVNC?.
A great interface?. Plenty of good programs?. A fast processor that can help you do everything quickly and efficiently?
In nutshell, Mac is an awesome OS, and like once you start using iPhone, you don’t look at other phones, similarly when you start using Mac, you will never look at windows or Linux. You should consider reading:. Now, if you are one of those who recently shifted to Mac and looking to get all the software’s installed on your system, there is already a list of. Now, just to make work easier for and webmasters, I’m creating a list of FTP clients for mac, which are not only easier to use but are one of the best in the app market.
Paid and free FTP Clients for mac Transmit: Transmit has been around for a while, but it’s still popular. Because it works and it has everything that you would need. It has basic FTP as well as iDisk. This FTP software offers many advance options like multi-connection transfers, Bandwidth limiting, Send SSh command, View security certificate, pane switcher and many more. CyberDuck: Cyberduck is another popular FTP client for Mac. It does everything that you need to do with it, and it’s got a decent interface. It won’t wow you with its looks, but it’s not complicated to use and it works.
Also, if you are one of those coder who like to edit codes while using FTP, this software will let you edit them using your preferred editor. It also supports, Google cloud storage, rackspace cloud files.
Also, if you are a Google drive user, you can manage the same with Cyber duck.What more could you ask for?. Read: Flow: Flow is another one of the most popular FTP clients for people who use a Mac. All the required features are there, and the interface is fluid and smooth. That makes it easy to work with. The only downfall is that it can be a little unstable, leading to more crashes than some other programs have.
One interesting feature about Flow is Droplets, which let you quickly upload files by dragging and dropping. Once file is uploaded, you can automatically copy the link to your clipboard. The only downside is this is a paid app and it cost $10, but again as we know quality always comes with a price tag. You can download Flow directly from Mac app store.
Read: FileZilla: works and will do what you need it to, but it’s a bit ugly and clunky. It doesn’t look like a lot of time was spent with the interface, especially when it came to making it look pretty so it would be inviting to use. You might want to give this one a pass based on that, although it does work properly if you don’t mind the look of it. Though, I use on my Windows OS, and love it, but for Mac, I suggest you to check out other alternative, which matches with elegant design of Mac.
Fetch: looks much better, but that’s mostly because it’s a minimalist design. That keeps it from being cluttered, and you can make the size of the window large or small. It doesn’t have a second pane, though, or any extra support features for Amazon or iDisk. It’s strictly basic FTP, and costs a bit much for what you get.
It supports Mac OS X 10.5 and above and is a paid tool again. Though, they offer 15 days trial which is good enough for you to get started. Like flow, it also offer droplets for quick uploading and supports wide range of FTP servers. Speed Download: is one of the most common download managers for Mac.
Now it handles FTP, too, making it a good bargain and something that a lot of Mac users are already familiar with. Though, it’s a paid mac app and you need to purchase it for $25. Though, you can always buy in bulk for multiple macs and get it for cheaper price.
Yummy: 7) is another one of the mediocre offerings. It does what it should, but there’s no flair to it.
They offer 30 days free trial or you can buy it for $29, I would rather spend $10 in buying Flow app. For the price, there are plenty of better options. Read:. There you have it seven FTP clients for Mac that you can use and enjoy. Find the one that works the best for you, and that’ll be one less worry that you have to deal with.
