Hey there. I would like to use Safari as a FTP with my website, but when I connect to my website everything is fine and I can download stuff, but I can't upload things. Maybe I'm doing something wrong:



I find what I want to upload and drag it to the finder with the FTP of my site in the folder that I want, but it tells me that "the item x cannot be moved because shawnstrickland.net cannot be modified."



Any help?

Or can I just not use safari as ftp?

    If you're in the directory that you want to upload stuff from, then



    ftp [site]



    should work... prompt for login/pw. You then use



    put [filename]



    to upload the file.



    Alternatively, use a graphical FTP program. Cyberduck is free.
