FileZilla 3 for OS X
Seems I missed this one… My preferred FTP client for Windows (and Linux) is now available for Mac OS X. FileZilla is a robust, free, and open-source ftp client (server version also available) that in my experience handles a variety of connections (including satphones) very reliably.
Longtime Mac users will probably hate the un-Mac-like interface, but shouldn’t dismiss it out of hand as it’s a very full-featured ftp client that has served me well and continues to be frequently updated and improved.
One particularly useful feature that has saved me countless hours of time is the ability to export and import both the settings and all the saved ftp sites, including passwords and individual site preferences. This makes it very quick and easy to transfer everything to a new machine without needing to re-enter everything. Give it a try…
