Bridge & your devices · Pairing a device

How do I connect a Windows PC to my Mac with Bridge?

Short answer: Open SS Bridge on the PC to see its connecting code, then on your Mac go to More → Connect Accounts → Devices, type the code and click Pair. Check the six-digit Tunnel Code matches on both screens.

Install Storage Studio Bridge on the PC, read the connecting code it shows, type that code into the Devices tab on your Mac, click Pair, and check that the six-digit Tunnel Code matches on both screens.

  1. On the PC, install and open SS Bridge. It shows a connecting code in three groups, like XXXX-XXXX-XXXX.
  2. On the Mac, open Storage Studio's More menu → Connect Accounts… → Devices tab.
  3. Type the code under Connect a device and click Pair.
  4. A six-digit Tunnel Code appears on both the Mac and the PC. If they match, confirm — you're linked.

After that, add folders to share on the PC, and turn on Share my clipboard if you want clipboard sharing.
