With apologies for a question that not about CF, I noticed at least one Mac at a monthly meeting, so I'm sure this will be an easy question:
I need to copy a massive amount of data from my Mac (which I wound up not using, and am pretty ignorant about) to a Windows-formatted external HD. Is there an easy way to do that? My experience so far: (1) Some files are on a Mac-formatted external HD which my Windows XP PC appears at first to recognize (it sounds its recognition bell and shows 'Disk recognized' and 'Disk installed' messages (or the like)in the lower right hand corner of the screen, but the disk doesn't show up in 'My Computer', even after a reboot. (2) Other files are on a Mac-formatted internal HD. When I plug an external Windows-formatted HD into my Mac, it recognizes it, and successfully copies files from it onto the Mac, but when I try to copy a file from the Mac onto the Windows-formatted HD, the Mac says that it cannot modify that HD. Am I out of luck?
