    A new icon will appear on your desktop and in your finder sidebar - that is your network drive. Double-click on the icon to open and use the drive.

    To disconnect your network drive: drag your network drive icon to the Trash can or right-click it and choose eject. (right click means hold CTRL key or apple key while clicking, for there is only one mouse key in Mac machine)
