Music from Mac to XP

Hi, I recently added Windows XP to my new Macbook pro. I therefor wanted to get all my music from my OSX to XP via my external harddrive. But everytime I tried to put the music from file or from Itunes over to the hardrive, a red cross was over the file. So it wasn't possible. Suddenly it asked if I wanted to back all the music up on the external harddrive. If I did, I needed to convert my external harddrive into, not sure about this; ''Timemachine safety copy'' or something like this. So I did, and suddenly it was possible to put all the music on the harddrive.
But the problems is just that when I open XP and put in my external harddrive in the USB, nothing opens up. It's like it only works in OSX now.

How can I fix this? Any solutions? Many must have tried the same thing, right?

Thank you

Kenneth

A red symbol? Can you explain more? I'm dragging songs fine from my Mac to external HD.

Could it be the file label?
