Transferring files (Mainly Music)

[samari81]

I have a slight dilema.

 

I'll keep this short,

 

 

 

I recently deleted everything off of my laptop to clean it all up a bit and start it all off fresh, at the moment my main home computer (my desktop) has all my files on.

 

What I'd wish to do is transfer all my music files from my desktop onto my laptop. The problem is, I have no empty discs, floppy discs or a usb pen drive to do so.

 

I was wondering if there was any way I could simply send my files over via the wireless network

 

 

 

Details:

 

 

 

Laptop - Advent 8109

 

Main Computer (Desktop) - Advent T9204

 

Wireless network router - Belkin

 

Internet Service Provider (ISP) - Virgin

 

 

 

If any other details are needed then please just ask

 

Oh one last things, it's only 230 music tracks that I wish to transfer :)

 

 

 

Many thanks,

 

Samari

You could probably try and just set up a lan between the two computers. Sadly, however, it has been years and years since I really did that so I'm not much help.

 

 

 

 

 

Alternatively I think there are programs you can do for this, I don't know of any though.

Ive asked around about any websites that might help,

 

 

 

For example:

 

 

 

I log into my main computer then upload all music files to the website

 

Then I log into my laptop and download all music files to my laptop...

 

 

 

 

 

But as far as I'm aware there aren't any that don't take hours.

You're running both of these on the same network? What operating systems?

 

 

 

try googling "Setting up a home network on <>"

 

 

 

If all else fails, pm me and I can set you up a temporary ftp account on one of my web hosts so you can upload/download them via ftp. It might take a while, even if you rar them, but if you're out of luck... :?
