What if you could work with your CheckBook or CheckBook Pro data on more than one Mac – or share it with other folks so they can work on the same data? Think of it: changes you make on any Mac will appear, usually within minutes, on all of the other Macs so your finances are always at hand.
All of that’s a snap with iCloud Drive. Let’s get started!
To share your document with other Macs signed into iCloud with the same Apple ID
- Open CheckBook or CheckBook Pro on the Mac with your current data.
- Go to the File menu, near the top left corner of your screen, and click the Move To menu item.
- Click the Where button, choose a location in iCloud Drive, and click the Move button at the bottom right corner of the sheet. If you’re already syncing your Desktop & Documents folders with iCloud Drive, you could choose one of those instead. We don’t usually recommend the Desktop folder, but that part’s always up to you.
- On any other Mac signed into iCloud with the same Apple ID as on the first Mac, visit the same location you chose in step 3, double-click your document, and you’re in business.
To share your document with other folks using iCloud Drive
- Follow the steps above to make sure the document with your current data is already in iCloud Drive.
- If you’re not sure exactly where your document is, open CheckBook or CheckBook Pro, go to the File menu near the top left corner of your screen, and click the Show in Finder menu item. Your document will be highlighted in the Finder.
- Follow Apple’s steps for sharing and collaborating.
