[QUOTE="baggss, post: 433858, member: 6762"] There is no reason that the Mac should not read the Windows formatted iPod. Pull your music off, plug the iPod back into your PC and click the RESTORE button in iTunes, this will reformat the iPod. Then try it again on your Mac and see what happens. This shouldn't even be an issue unless you manually formatted the iPod to NTFS or some such. Once you accomplish the first, you can do the second the same way. I will say that using your iPod as an iPod and as an external storage drive for your music is not a good thing. If the iPod has to be reformatted or dies, you just lost all your music. [/QUOTE]
