How do I mount another mac's disk in my mac's finder?

To perform an operation, it is required that Mac A must have Mac B’s disk mounted in the Finder. How do I go about doing that?

Details: Mac A is a macbook pro and mac B is a macbook air.

MacBook Pro (13-inch Late 2011), Mac OS X (10.7.4)

Enable file sharing in System Preferences > Sharing


User uploaded file


Finder > Go menu > "Connect to server..."


User uploaded file


Click the Browse button in the dialog that appears and select the computer you wish to share. You will need a user's account name and password. If you need the disk mounted then select the disk to mount (usually named "Macintosh HD").


Both computers must be on the same LAN.
