Ftp Set Up Instructions for Apple Macs

Here are instructions on downloading, configuring and using FileZilla FTP to upload schools print orders to us.

Important:You can use any FTP client of your choice. We recommend Filezilla as it is free to download, robust and easy to use. However FileZilla is not a product related to or affiliated with One Vision Imaging in any way. One Vision Imaging takes no responsibilty for changes made to your system by the installation of FileZilla's software, nor can we provide technical support if you experience difficulties installing it.

FileZilla's support page for technical difficulties can be found here: Filezilla Support.

Your pictures are usually located within the Users folder:

For schools images, you must make sure your images are in their correct year, class and child folders where required. If you are not sure please see our help guides here. As images sent the wrong way will require re-uploading.

Order Forms

Important: If you do not correctly complete an order form, your order will not be processed.

For Schools Orders, complete your order online here after your images have finished uploading.

For non Schools related orders, download our order forms here: onevisionimaging.com/downloads. Once completed upload them into the same folder as your images on the FTP.
