Parallels Transporter has been designed to facilitate and automate the transfer of music, pictures, bookmarks, and various types of documents from a Windows PC to a Mac.
Currently available at a special introductory price (limited time offer) of just one dollar, Parallels Transporter is said to be aimed at Mac users who may not need to run Windows on their Mac at all.
The three things it does best are:
· Access your documents created in Windows right on your Mac. · Find all your files from your PC in the proper folders on your Mac. · Use all of your Windows browser bookmarks in Safari (or any other Mac browser) on your Mac.
In addition to moving pictures, music and documents to their corresponding Mac folders, Parallels Transporter also moves Windows apps and other files into a virtual machine on the Mac. You can grab it from Apple’s Mac App Store using the link below.
