Move files from Samsung to Mac Method 2: Use Smart Switch

Another good way to move files from Samsung to Mac is by using Smart Switch. This is an official application built by Samsung to make it convenient to transfer photos, contacts, messages, and more between devices.

Before you try to use Smart Switch to move files from Samsung to Mac, you want to make sure that your computer is compatible. These are the minimum system requirements that must be met on your Mac:

• Operating System: Mac OS X® 10.6 or later.
• CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHz or higher.
• RAM: 1GB or higher.
• Screen resolution: 1280 x 800.

If your Mac is compatible and met all the specified requirements above, follow these steps to install Smart Switch and transfer your data to your computer:

1. Install Smart Switch on your Mac.
2. After installing Smart Switch, connect your phone to your computer using USB cable.

Move files from Samsung to Mac Method 3: Use third party apps

If, for some reason, you don't want the first two methods above in moving your files to your Mac, the other option would be to use third party apps. There are many applications that claim to work better in doing the job but frankly, we don't recommend them. We haven't actually used one yet and we can't confirm if they are safe to use. If you want to take the risks and find out yourself, simply use Google to look for them. We have no idea how such applications behave after you install them on your computer so there's always the chance of putting your Mac's security and data at some degree of risk.

As much as possible, we suggest that you stick with the first two methods as they have proven to be reliable and safe for years now.
