If knowing the IP address and port number of a computer, how can I send big files using Folder Transfer?
In this circumstance, you can choose the method, "Connect to a Computer". The specific steps are as followed.
1. Run Folder Transfer on your computer and another one.
2. On another computer: File Transfer- Network --> Connect to a Computer --> Input your computer's IP Address and Port Number (usually the port # is 8585, or you may find it in your computer's Folder Transfer), then click OK.
3. On your computer: File Transfer- Send files to network computers- Select files or folders - Click "Next"- Select your target PC in the network computers field - Click "OK" or "Next" to go to "Filter" tab (Optional)
3. Then Folder Transfer will instantly send your big files to another computer.
However, the IP address may be often changed, so another method, "Join a Grougp" is more worthy of recommendation. As to this method, which is highly recommended for remote network, you don't need to know any IP address or port #. Here are the instructions.
1. Run Folder Transfer on both your PC and another one
2. On your computer: File Transfer- Network -- Join a Group -- Create a group- Sign up a group account- Input group name and password- Click "Sign up" button
Then input the Group Name and Password in "Join a Group" tab- Click "OK" (Network - Join a Group )
(Thereafter, you just need to select the group name showing under
"Network" to join the group, no need to input the group name and
password again.)
3. On another computer: Input Group name and Password, then click "OK". (Network - Join a Group)
In addition to remote file transfer software, Folder Transfer is also a folder share program, which allows to share pictures, movie and other files with networking users and supports downloading other network users' shared folders.
