This Mac 911 article is in response to a question submitted by Macworld reader Gabriel. In Finder > Preferences, make sure that in the General tab you have selected “Connected servers.” This will make any mounted drives appear on the Desktop, where you can select them in step 6 and proceed to step 7.Navigate up one level and proceed to step 7. In the Locations section of the sidebar, click the remote Mac, then in the resulting Finder window, double-click the volume you want to make an alias from.
You can select the volume in step 6 in one of several ways: Choose File > Make Alias or hold down Command and Option while dragging to create an alias.Double-click the volume you want to link to.(If may be stored in your Keychain and the login handled silently.) Use Mail Preferences to change options for the email accounts you use in Mail, and for working with messages and mailboxes. Enter login information for that Mac if prompted.Double-click the computer you want to share from.The alias will still try to work if the other computer is sharing via AFP, even if the volume is no longer shared over AFP. When you have a stored alias on one Mac that points to another, and which was a connection originally made over AFP. The only reason this typically matters, however, is on other Macs. Check “Share filse and folders using SMB” if it isn’t selected. If you see an option for AFP, uncheck it.
