1. If you have not already done so, create an account on the Dropbox website and then proceed to download it. The downloading process is instantaneous, almost as fast as a blink of an eye.

2. Click on the menu present on upper-right corner and select "Upload files" to begin choosing folders or files you want to upload to Dropbox.

Method 4: Transfer Files from Android to Mac via Bluetooth

Bluetooth has been referred by a lot of people as one of the fastest approaches to transfer files between Mac and Android. We definitely agree. There are just a few steps that are required to be followed to begin a transfer with Bluetooth.

Even though there are other several external tools that one tends to utilize with Android, Bluetooth keeps being the go-to option to conduct transfers, as well as to conduct other activities. It is a device that really comes in handy when you use it smartly. Due to its continued updates, it moves right along with technology, ready to assist you.

It has been noted there are different platforms providing different steps on how to transfer files from Android to Mac using Bluetooth. This has caused some confusion to arise. There are only three steps to follow, nothing more, nothing less. Alterations have been made on steps by websites geared toward solving tech issues, but the results are not the same. There are errors that have become apparent. To play it safe, implement the following three steps that have been proven to be accurate in every aspect.

Steps to Implement:

1. Bluetooth needs to be turned on both devices. To verify this is the case, on Mac, ensure Bluetooth is "On" by clicking on "System Preferences" and then "Bluetooth".

On Android device, go to "Settings" and then "Bluetooth". Mac should be listed. Ensure pairing codes and match and then click on "Pair" on both devices.

2. On Mac's menu bar, click on "Bluetooth" icon in order for Android device to show up. Click on "Send File to Device". To send files to Mac, enable Bluetooth Sharing by going to "System Preferences" and then "Sharing". Next to Bluetooth Sharing check the "On" box. From doing so, you will be able to opt where downloads go to and what should be done when a transfer request is received.

3. On Android device, click on the "Share" icon so that file goes to folder specified in Bluetooth Sharing on Mac. Now, you will get the hang of moving files between Android and Mac, without cables.

These might seem like three saturated steps to follow, but they are not when you begin to implement them. Now, it is important that you do not skip any of the aforementioned details in each step, because if you do, transfer will not be processed correctly. There have been situations when people have skipped a detail in a step; thus, they have had to start all over again. Make sure that this does not happen to you! You can do so by double-checking before continuing to the next step.

Start Transferring!

With any of these approaches you will be able to transfer files in a quick and efficient manner. Even so, make it a priority to have software, such as Coolmuster Android Assistant, to assist in vital transfers to ensure every one of them is conducted error free. Without software, errors can come to pass; not all the time—but sometimes. Keep this in mind and start transferring!
