Hi,
I'm trying to transfer some files to the external HD of a friend of mine. This external HD is formatted in NTFS.
It seems that NTFS formatted drives don't accept files with the same name.
The HD I'm using on my mac is FAT. - so it does accept files with the same name if they have different case, right?
Example: Nice Picture.jpg - NICE PICTURE.jpg / FAT accepts - NTFS doesn't
So I get this message:
"You cannot copy 'Nice Picture.jpg' to the destination because its name is the same as the name of an item on the destination, except for the case of some characters."
And it stops copying.
Its a large amount of files (200GB), so I don't want to do it mannualy.
Is there anything I could do?
Thanks!!
