Thanks, I will try these options.. Pretty sure I've given files of this kind to other Mac users, and never had any complaints. I got the impression from my friend that he was not able to open the files any which way he tried. I don't have a Mac myself, so I can't check. But we have one at work, so I'll bring a few of the files with me and try them out there. The hard drive he is using is a hybrid external WD Passport drive, especially labelled to work on both Windows and Mac. Would the fact that I copied the files over from a PC pose any problems when trying to read the files on a Mac? – John16 dec. 142014-12-16 14:16:49
No, that shouldn't be a problem. – jherran16 dec. 142014-12-16 14:27:33
Dv Avi Format
Ok, so I hooked my hard drive up to the Mac we have at at work, and here's what happens: I connect the drive, open the folder, and the actual DV-AVI files are not showing up at all. Other files show up fine, like MP4, MPEG2 etc, but the DV-AVI's are not visible. Checking folder info/properties shows the data is definitely there, but they simply don't show in the folder view. So there's nothing I can 'click to play' so to speak. Any suggestions? – John18 dec. 142014-12-18 19:48:36
