I'm using a computer that is connected over wifi network with my other Mac (the one with the actual movies and videos). When I'm trying to add a movies folder in xbmc I can't get to that folder from the network.
Anyone knows how to find it??

Is the folder shared in Mac OS X? Go to System Preferences -> Sharing -> File Sharing
Make sure the movie folder is added and that guests can access it (unless you want to password protect the folder).
If you are using Mac OS X 10.7 then you will need to use AFP inside of XBMC. Use the Zeroconf browser when adding a source. If you are using 10.6.x or lower, you have the option of using SMB as well (be sure to enable it in "Options" in File Sharing on the Mac).
