The Cable is connected, but the Utility tells me to connect
the computers
1
Close the Switch-to-Mac Utility on each computer
2
Unplug the Cable from each computer
3
Restart the Switch-to-Mac Utility on each computer
after several transfers, my Mac hard drive is filling up
The Switch-to-Mac Cable is intended to be used only once for
each PC that has files you would like to transfer Transferring from
the same PC multiple times can cause duplicate files
1
Go to the folders below and see if there are multiple folders
labeled WindowsPC2, WindowsPC3, etc
−
//Users/Home/Documents/WindowsPC
−
//Users/Home/Pictures/WindowsPC
−
//Users/Home/Music/WindowsPC
−
//Users/Home/Movies/WindowsPC

If there are multiple WindowsPC(1,2,3) folders, there is a good
chance that each folder contains many of the same files
Check to see if there are duplicate files between folders
−
If you have not deleted files from your PC, the most recent
WindowsPC folder should have all your most current files
−
If you are sure that all of your files are present in the most
recent WindowsPC folder, you may delete older WindowsPC
folders to free up space
3
If you do not have more than one WindowsPC folder in the
locations above, you have not transferred duplicate files
