@4358haltern, you don't have a server configured. Do you think you have one?

I just wanted to access the Pi's card using Finder

I use scp to grab data off my pi. It's like ssh but for transferring files instead of a remote shell.

@4358haltern, if "Finder" is the Apple equivalent of Windows "Explorer", SAMBA works with it as well.

so I have to install Samba on the pi❓

@4358haltern, if you want to transfer files via drag and drop to a Mac or PC, then yes, you need to install Samba on the Pi. Your Pi's home directory will appear as a remote file share (or whatever Mac calls it).
