[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1217942, member: 46727"] As far as I know, straight copying will not transfer metadata from the Windows NTFS or FAT-32 file system to your Mac (which uses the Unix file system). Things like attributes will transfer but not system ownership or metadata. Doing some more research on this, I found that using Adobe Lightroom 3 in Windows and again Adobe Lightroom 3 for the Mac that you can in fact transfer your edits and metadata. Kind of an expensive way to do it, however. There may be other photo editing software which can do the same thing, so dig around a bit. In the meantime, here's the URL for Adobe Lightroom 3. [URL="https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_lightroom"]LINK[/URL] [/QUOTE]
