[QUOTE="Justin Chin, post: 542685, member: 43056"] Hi there everyone! Im new to the forums as well as being new to my Macbook which I just got for school:) Now the problem I am having is I have it set up for Time Machine and that works great, but there are times when I need to connect my portable hard drive to PC's. That where the problem occurs. The PC doesnt read it. Now from what Ive read and searched around on is that it needs to be formatted to do both. Now since im new to all of this, Im not sure how to format it for PC/MAC usage. Can anyone chime in and help me out? That would be great! Justin [/QUOTE]
