[QUOTE="Darker Times, post: 328283, member: 25392"] Hi All "Five weeks with my iMac and loving it" I have a Toshiba ext hard drive that I used to use on my windows computer for storing video files while editing. I have this connected to my iMac at the moment but can only read from this....which I understand why. I would like to use this drive as my itunes library as I have a lot of CD's and don't want to use up the iMacs drive with MP3's. Thing is, I still wish to use this drive when I boot up in windows, to use my video editor. As I cannot yet afford final cut, I still need to use my Magix Pro 10 editor which is windows only programme, so I need some way of sharing this drive with both OS. Is this possible, and can someone tell me how to go about this. As soon as I get Final Cut, I will dump the windows install and be solely OSX, as I only use XP for this one programme. I have not missed windows one bit, which was one of my main fears of changing to Apple.......so for anyone else out there who is still debating whether to change or not....Just Do It. [/QUOTE]
