[QUOTE="chscag, post: 885462, member: 46727"] In order to use Time Machine with an external hard drive, it must be formatted to the OS X file system = HFS +. That file system can not be seen by Windows unless third party software is installed. You can partition your external hard drive into two partitions: One as HFS+ for Time Machine, the second as FAT-32 which is compatible with both Mac OS X and Windows. Regards. [/QUOTE]
