Finding Your Pi’s IP Number<\/strong><\/p>\n

on your mac or pc open up a Terminal window and type<\/p>\n

ping raspberrypi.local<\/span><\/p>\n

this will tell us the\u00a0IP of raspberry pi (so we can communcate with it wirelessly) you can see on my machine its 192.168.0.35 (to stop it printing numbers press (alt . ) after you’ve noted down this number quit terminal<\/p>\n

VNC is a great little program and let you do everything on the pi, but using you normal laptop or computer. You can transfer files over to the pi with it and you can copy and paste from your home computer to the pi (remember the key\u00a0combinations from a mac to a pi are different, so i always use copy and paste from the drop down menu).<\/p>\n

copying files to and from your pi<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can use vlc to wireless transfer files to your pi.<\/p>\n

to send a file to the pi , click on the two green arrows, top middle on the VNC screen. You will then be promoted to choose the file.<\/p>\n

to send a file from the pi, go to the little VNC logo in the top right bit of the screen.this will bring up the VNC CONNECT interface. go to the little square with lines on it, top right corner, then choose File Transfer.<\/p>\n
