Hi Daniela Rubio, Thank you for the explanation of airdrop. I've seen this come by a number of times, but there is one important aspect that never became clear to me. I hope you can explain a little more about it.
Here's what I do, and where I go wrong. 1. I open airdrop on both Lion macs. 2. On the source mac, from where I want to send files, I look in the grid by interacting with it, and I find the other, destination mac. 3. Now, I need to drag files over to it, and there is a problem. In order for a drag and drop to work, you must have both the file window from which you are dragging, as well as the airdrop window into which you are dropping, open on the source mac, simultaneously. How do I do that? In finder, as far as I understand it now, you have a sidebar on the left, and a main area on the right. When viewing a folder full of files, the window on the right is taken up by the files. When you start airdrop by hitting command shift r, this area is instead taken up by the airdrop window. Is this a misconception of mine? How can you have both airdrop and a finder window with files open at the same time? Paul.
