[QUOTE="maconfusion, post: 480501, member: 37691"] [b]Screengrabs and other details[/b] Hi guys Thanks for helping me with this. I went and got the details of the hard disk in Mac and it says that it is "Windows NT File System"...I presume this is NTFS, as you mentioned might have been the problem. I've included a screengrab of the details. I accessed the folder in both MAC and PC. The files were all transported across from my older user account on my XP machine ("Jason"), even though there were two users. But all of these files are definitely only from my user account. When I open it in MAC, I get "$recycle.bin", "Jason's stuff", "QSA stuff" (work folder), "Recycler", "System volume information", "Toms" (a friend's folders, added after I did my initial file transfer). Opened in Vista, as you can see, there are A LOT more folders. I hope this helps. Any further assistance would be greatly appreciated!! :-) Maconfusion [ATTACH=full]6711[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]6712[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]6713[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]6714[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
