Iv been trying to use safari to access my website via ftp. I type in ftp.mysite.com and it comes up with a username and password forum, but when I log in I can't transfer files. What can do ??

That's a big kinda. All it does is call on the FTP built into Finder. Personally, I ftp via the terminal.ChicoWeb said:FTP IS supported in Safari, kinda. What it does is mounts its to your desktop just like a shared folder or network connection. It's pretty spiffy. Might want to make sure if you are passive FTP or not. That may make a diff on your server.

I meant is was a "big kinda" because it is not really FTP via Safari, but rather FTP via finder.ChicoWeb said:Right, but not eveyone likes command line to FTP. It's very visually easy.
