In Finder, you must navigate to the file you want to collaborate on and select it.

  • With the file selected, tap the Share icon (a square with a North-facing arrow emerging from inside it).
  • Choose Add People to set up a collaboration on a file or folder.
  • You will choose how to share the item (Mail, Messages, Copy Link or Airdrop).
  • You also get to set your Share Options:
  • Who can access: Only people you invite or anyone with the link you create.
  • Permission: View only or Can Make Changes.
  • Tap Share and you’ll be asked who you wish to share the link to files and folders with.
