How many devices can I pair with my Mac using Bridge?

\n

Short answer: Up to five devices can be paired with one Mac by default, each with its own settings. If you hit the limit, forget a device you no longer use and pair the new one.

\n

You can pair up to five devices with one Mac by default, and each keeps its own settings — its own clipboard switch, shared folders and so on.

\n

If you reach the limit, Storage Studio tells you so when you try to pair another one. Forget a device you no longer use, then pair the new one.

\n

Note that the Bridge app on a PC links to one Mac at a time.
