Connecting to your network drives (Home/NetID "H", Private/Lab "P", Shared/Dept "S")

- Hover over the SMPH-Drives.zip file, then click on the three dots to the right and click "Download"
- Save the file. Your browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, etc) should start downloading it. Once it's finished, open it from the normal location your files download to.
- Once you have opened the zip file, move its contents (SMPH-Drives icon) to your home computer's desktop. Then double-click on the file.
- You will likely get a message saying that it cannot be opened, something similar to this one:
- Press "Cancel". Double-click on the file once more, and when you get the cannot be opened message, once again click "Cancel".
- Next, press on the Apple menu and press "System Preferences"
