Thanks I will try this. What about the other .files that show up?

I think your problem will be solved if you empty your Trash on the Mac side while the drive is connected. Then those files won't be so big. They are probably full of the files you are trying to delete from the drive.

Listers I use removable media such as thumb drives and SD cards. I find that if I start with my Mac and put stuff on it to move over to a Windows machine, I find dot files like .trashes. I would not be annoyed if they didn't eat up most of my space on the drive. How do I stop these files from showing up? I was told that they were hidden files for faster Mac indexing, but what I need to pull off of 4GB of space doesn't need to be accessed that fast to justify the annoyance. Thanks for anyone's help on this irritating matter.
