Übertragen is a widget designed to transfer files, be it to an FTP-server, to another Mac running Ubertragen on your local network (through Bonjour) or to one of your Bluetooth-devices. It was designed with quick uploads in mind and thanks to the dashboard it is always available immediately. Just grab your files, call Dashboard, hover over the widget and it presents all your FTP accounts, nearby Macs and your Bluetooth-devices in an exposŽ-like manner. Too easy.

Love this widget but it seems abandoned. The "file received" dialog box can no longer be dismissed under 10.6.2. You have to open Dashboard and quit the widget to make it go away. Too much hassle to transfer files. I guess I'm looking for an alternative LAN file transfer app...DropCopy maybe...

I like the idea, however the Bonjour feature simply doesn't work.

The problem is that the only machine that shows up in Ubertragen is the same one I'm sending from, which doesn't make sense 'cause other apps can work fine over Bonjour.

I'll agree with HERVé 5. I also use DropCopy to send files... much easier. For Bluetooth I use the Apple's built in service.

AWESOME and lightweight utility! Very useful - it has almost completely replaced my ftp client. The bluetooth with my k800i doesn't work either, but I don't need it.
I don't know what the deal is with the name, though. I tell my friends that they need to go download "Ubagrabatabagibbin." What does it mean?

Glad you like it.

"übertragen" is the german verb for "to transmit". =D

This comes in addition to my previous comment (below). I must say, for ftp transfers, Übertragen does rock. I find it way more efficient than the others in this "just drop" category.

For more efficient local-oriented transfers you also have DropCopy, presented on MU at http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/16250 .

DropCopy doesn't do ftp but I find it more efficient ('less clicks') and it still supports internet IPs in addition to bonjour...

AWESOME! 5 stars. Finally a quick way to send files between my machines without having to use a file server every time.

This is the first non-Apple widget that I've seen that "gets it". It does one thing well (aside from some initial bugs), and it doesn't require any setup to get started. So please don't add more complex file structures :) I like how it is.

SUPER AWESOME! Thanks!

One wish though: --> The widget makes a folder for each transfer in the drop boxes when sending file over Bonjour. And those folders are named by sender's name and date. That's cool, but if I don't want that, and instead wants the files all thrown in to the same directory, without dated folders, I'd wish you couldmake that as an -option- instead. :)

Keep it up! This is a killer widget. Looks nice also!

mstac had trouble on 29 May 2007

I must say that this widget is exactly what I was looking for. But for me it does not work... I'm only talking about the bluetooth mode. I'm using a macbook, and a SonyEricsson k800i. I can send files without problem using the "Bluetooth File Exchange" (from Apple), but Ubertragen gives me an error "A Bluetooth error has occured, is the device in range?". As there is not much configuring, I don't know what to do to solve this...
Any help warmly welcomed!

This widget is really great, but I found a small bug when I had deleted a file I sent and then tried to empty the trash.
The last sent file is still open after the FTP transfer.
You can look at "Open files" when you double-click the widget into the Activity Monitor.
