Handling Multiple Transfers

The Switch-to-Mac Utility is optimized for transferring from each

PC You can use the Cable to transfer files from two or more PCs

to your Mac Each time you transfer files from your PC to your

Mac, a new folder is created for that transfer For example, if you

transfer My Documents from a desktop and laptop PC, you will

see two folders in the Mac OS locations:
//Users/Home/Documents/WindowsPC
//Users/Home/Documents/WindowsPC2

The Utility also creates a new folder each time you transfer files

from the same PC Consider a scenario where you transfer My

Documents from your PC today, and then do so again next week

You will have the following two folders:
//Users/Home/Documents/WindowsPC
//Users/Home/Documents/WindowsPC2

These folders will contain many of the same files, resulting in

duplication and wasted hard-drive space To eliminate duplicate

files, complete only one transfer from each PC
