Artcraft Label FTP - Using FTP with Windows XP and Internet Explorer 7

 

Internet Options 
  • 1. The first thing we must do is to enable non-passive ftp browsing via Internet Explorer's Internet Options. To start, open Internet Explorer
    and click on Tools in the menu and then choose Internet Options.
  • At this point we are presented with a smaller window which allows us to make some changes to the Internet Options. First, click on the
    Advanced tab (furthest to the right). Then, scroll down until you see:
    • Use Passive FTP (for firewall and DSL modem compatibility)

    Make sure to remove the checkmark as shown in the screenshot.
     


     

  • Windows Explorer 
  • It is now safe to close Internet Explorer if you no longer need it.
  • What we need to do now is to right-click on the start button (bottom left) and choose the option Explore. This will open Windows Explorer.
  • Now that we have Windows Explorer open, we must enter the ftp address in the Address box at the top. Delete everything in that box and enter:
    • ftp://artcraftlabel.net
    Then press enter on the keyboard.
     
  • You should now see the login screen. Here we simply enter the same username and password as we would if we were logging into the
    Control Panel on the web. After entering the information, click on the Log On button.
     

     
  • We have now logged into the FTP server. The artcraftftp folder is where you will go to send files. Any files dragged into this folder will upload to us here at Artcraft Label.

     
    If you have questions call 905 632 2314  x 225 and we will help you to get your files uploaded.
