How to Connect MacBook Pro to a Power Mac G4 (6 Steps)


Verify that your MacBook Pro is completely turned off and disconnect any other FireWire devices that may be attached to it. Disconnect all FireWire devices from your Power Mac G4 as well. If you have an external FireWire hard drive connected to either computer, then that computer must be shut down or you must click and drag the hard drive's icon to the trashcan icon before you disconnect it.
Connect the FireWire cable from your MacBook Pro to your Power Mac G4.
Turn on your MacBook Pro and hold down the 'T' key on your keyboard until a yellow FireWire hard drive icon appears on your Power Mac G4's desktop.
Transfer all the files you need to between the two computers.
Click and drag the FireWire drive icon for your MacBook Pro to your PowerMac G4's trashcan icon when you're finished. Click the Apple menu and select 'Shut Down' on your MacBook Pro to turn it off.
Make sure that your MacBook Pro is completely turned off and then disconnect the FireWire cable.
