(If you drop a folder of files-or a Mac OS X package, which is actually a directory-DropCopy will create an archive of those files before sending the archive will be automatically expanded by DropCopy on the receiving computer.) The file will be copied to the other computer and will immediately appear wherever that computer’s owner has decided that incoming files should reside. When you want to copy a file to another computer, simply drag the file into the drop zone, and then onto the name of the preferred destination (either a computer name or a user name, depending on your preferences). (If you want to copy files to a computer running DropCopy that’s not on your local network, you can manually add that computer as a destination by providing its IP address.) If any destinations are found, a small, translucent circle-I call it a drop zone, and there’s a screenshot of it on the right-appears on your Desktop you can move this drop zone to wherever you prefer. When running, DropCopy looks for other copies of DropCopy running on your local network it calls these destinations.
