I have a host machine A running FM7 and guest machine B accessing the app via Open Remote. When I insert a file from B (using File Reference), it is not available from A and visa-versa. Do volumes need to be mounted. I am running on OS X

When you insert the file Using a File Reference, your not actually inserting the file, just a reference to the file. Unless the path is exactly the same on both computers, it won't be availiable to the other user.

You must either insert the file itself, or store the file on a server where the path to it is the same for both computers.

I'm sure that Macs have this same kind of functionality (but may be called differently, I don't know) - on Windows, you can create a mapped drive. The workstation thinks it the G: (or whatever you name it), but it's actually a path to the directory. In this case, where the images are. I tell my clients to set this method up - it's just easier for everyone.
