However, if you do, just rename the Mac file by adding ".jpg" to the end.
Your PC may not be able to read a Mac-formatted Zip.
How old are these machines?
Do they have USB?
Do they have CD and/or DVD drives?

| saratoga120 Senior Member 1404 Posts 5/05 | Posted - Oct 21 2008 : 5:38PM The Mac dates from the late 90s, the PC is about three years old. It has USB connectivity, but its CD and DVD drives are not working. Might a remote drive from a company like Newegg be a solution? [Link] |

Remember to rename the Mac files, by adding ".jpg" to the end, if you have any trouble opening them on your PC. [Link] |
