Michelle Posted 5 July, 2009 Share Posted 5 July, 2009 C'mon then Mac-heads, help me out. Trying to get some photos off my MacBook onto an external hard drive, for use in Windoze. Done the obvious export, connect hard drive, drag and drop, and it's saying the hard drive cannot be modified. Any ideas? At the moment I've ended up burning a CD for Windoze use and transferring them that way, but it's hardly ideal and bloomin' time consuming. I've checked out Apple support and it's said it could be to do with the format of the hard drive, but I just wanna check I'm not missing something glaringly obvious before I go and reformat it. Ta in advance peeps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
