[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1720856"] OK, the .thumb files are NOT the pictures, but normally hidden files that just contain a thumbnail of the jpg (for the icons you see in OS X). Normally they are hidden in OS X because of the leading "." in the filename. They become visible in Windows. You can also see .trashes, and other "." files when you take an OS X drive to Windows. As you discovered, the real files are the ones without the leading "." BTW, when you put that drive back in your Mac the "." files will return, just so you know. [/QUOTE]
