A:

There are a number of ways, but the simplest is by USB thumb drive of sufficient capacity. The more elegant if both machines are on the same network is by switching file sharing on on the Mac Pro, and then logging into it from the Air. The Mac Pro drive will appear on the Air's desktop and allow you to simply drag the files over.

 

For sharing, you will need an account on the Mac Pro, or the ID and password of an account already on the machine.
