Step 1: Get SyncMate Free Edition
First of all, please, download and install SyncMate Free Edition on your Mac.
Step 2: Connect your Macs
Launch SyncMate and establish connection between your Macs via Wi-Fi or Ethernet. Let's consider one Mac to be your "main" Mac, where you add connections to other Macs, other Macs become "secondary" ones.
