Why

http://xkcd.com/949/ I wanted a simple and fast way to exchange small files, like Word-Documents, Pictures, URLs, etc. iChat and similar tools need much configuration and registering - I wanted a solution that would "just work". I used to use Mac OS X' FileSharing and the DropBox, but I don't get notified, and I have to mount the other user's Home DropBox by hand. Additionally the number of logged in users on Mac OS X Client is limited. Back then[1], no tool existed for this purpose, so I made my own (as usual) :-)).

Key Features

  • Bonjour-enabled[2]
  • No configuration necessary
  • Automatically fetches username and user image from your Macintosh Preferences / Address Book
  • Lets you transfer files to Macs in your local network
  • Lets you browse and get files from Macs in your local[3] network
  • largefile support[4]
  • IPv6 enabled

Download

let me know how it works for you!

Screenshots

This picture shows the browser with all on the network available Schick users. If you want to send a file to an user, simply drag it to the user's row and drop it. It's just that easy!

System Requirements

Having Problems?

Schick doesn't fit your needs? Want to try another tool?

Take a look at DropCopy or Desktop Transporter!


  1. 2003?
  2. Bonjour==ZeroConf==mDNS
  3. and, as an experimental feature, even in an LAN/WAN with several broadcast domains (not over internet, maybe in the future, when everyone uses IPv6)
  4. Meaning files bigger than 2GB
  5. That means, a 64bit processor. If you have an older Mac, please see: Software Projects That Are Not Longer Supported
  6. including Mac OS X 10.8 "Mountain Lion" AND 10.9 "Mavericks"!
  7. usually, every standard Ethernet or WiFi Network can handle Bonjour, but I encountered trouble on several occasions. So, if it's the same to you, I'd recommend using ethernet instead of WiFi.
