    Hello,

    Quite simply:

    On your computer:
    1. Install BeatPack for Mac OS X: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://intua.net/downloads/BeatPack_0.91_mac.zip">http://intua.net/downloads/BeatPack_0.91_mac.zip</a><!-- m --> (check <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.intua.net/shop.html">http://www.intua.net/shop.html</a><!-- m --> for latest version)
    2. Unzip, mount the image and drop BeatPack to your Applications folder
    3. Launch BeatPack. If you have enabled the Mac OS X firewall, add BeatPack as a trusted application ( check <!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="http://intua.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=705">viewtopic.php?f=6&t=705</a><!-- l --> )
    4. Under "Shared directory", click Browse, and select a directory containing the files you want to transfer.
    5. Under "Upload directory", click Browse, and select a directory in which BeatPack will save files sent from BeatMaker

    On your iPhone or iPod Touch:
    1. In BeatMaker, navigate to the Home screen and click the BeatPack tab (the small circular icon with arrows)
    2. You might already see your BeatPack server (something like <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:3131">http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:3131</a><!-- m -->), if not, click "Add Server", and enter
    the IP address BeatPack is displaying (use the digit-only address at first)
    3. Select the server by pressing it and then press either Download or Upload. Select the files you want to download (remotely) or upload (locally).

    Hope this helps,
    Intua Team

    Remember that you also need a wifi router to create the network. If you don't have a router beatpack will not work.

    I too can't upload from the Iphone to my Mac.
    The Beatpack wireless address showed up on the beatmaker page automatically, I have wifi working on my phone, and no firewall installed.
    Halp!

    Does this work with Snow Leopard?
