How long will it take?
Images will upload as fast as the internet connection you are working from. Most associates upload a full wedding within 24 hours. You can use this link to test your internet connection speed and calculate upload time based on the provided results.

Can I receive email notifications if the transfer stops/stalls?
Oh yeah! There is a really awesome app called Growl. Essentially, Growl is a program that will tell you when an event has completed – successfully or not. For example, you might upload large blocks of files every night as you leave work. Growl can be configured to notify you of success or failure with a pop-up.

Instructions for Transmit

1. Refresh your browser

VIEW>REFRESH

2. Select all files.

FILE>GET INFO

If you notice you are missing files, continue to follow these steps below.

These missing are hard to find manually (you don’t want to count 2500 files, lol). So instead of starting all over, what you need to do is select all the files on your computer, drag them into this folder on the FTP server and drop them there again (don’t make a new folder, use the original).

It will ask you what you want to do about the files that are already there – select RESUME and it will find the missing files for you!

VOILA!
