This forum is great. Post a question and in no time at all get an answer. So, here is my latest newbie post. I have an ext. harddrive for my PC which I was able to use on my PC right out of the box. The box says it can be used with PC or Mac. It is USB. So here comes the question: in order to back up files from my eMac to this drive, do I have to partition and then format this partition or can I drop files onto it using my USBs? I don't want to use back-up software which came with the drive. I copied an entire HD onto it but then could not restore it and lost about 30 gigabytes of data. It's still on the HD but cannot copy it back. This may be a silly question but I cannot get it straight in my head. Hope I can count on your help again.
Another quick one: Is it possible to copy data from Quicken 2007 (PC) to Quicken 2005 (Mac)? I have big enough flash drive or my ext. HD to transfer it with. (As you can see I'm trying to change over to Mac alltogether, hence all these questions.)
Thanks as usual.
