30 Chapter 2 Getting to Know Your Mac mini
Connecting a Camera or Other FireWire Device
If you have an iPod, iSight camera, FireWire digital video camera, hard drive, or other
device that has a FireWire connector, you can connect it to your Mac mini. Follow the
installation instructions that came with your device. For more information about
FireWire, see “Connecting With FireWire” on page 37.
Transferring Files to Another Computer
You have several ways to transfer files or documents to or from your Mac mini:
 You can easily transfer files using Setup Assistant when you first set up your
computer or using Migration Assistant later. For more information, see “Transferring
Information to Your Mac mini” on page 14.
 You can transfer files via the Internet using .Mac or another Internet account. Go to
www.mac.com for more information.
 If your computer is connected to an Ethernet network, you can transfer files to
another computer on the network. To access another server or computer, open a
Finder window and click Network. Or if you know the name or network address of
the computer, choose Go > “Connect to Server” from the Finder menu bar.
 You can create a small Ethernet network by connecting an Ethernet cable from your
Mac mini to another computer’s Ethernet port. For more information, open Mac Help
and search for “Connecting two computers.”
 You can also connect to another Mac using a FireWire cable. Your Mac mini appears
as a disk drive on the other computer and you can transfer files to or from it. For
more information about using FireWire to transfer files, see “FireWire Target Disk
Mode” on page 39 or open Mac Help and search for “FireWire target.”
