sir,
my system is macbook pro, and i have 500gb external hard disk.i partitioned that into four volumes.three volumes are in windows NTFS format and one volume is in MS DOS FAT-32 format.in that ms dos volume i can not copy larger files(more than 4gb)from the macbook pro.it is saying that it is too large for the volume format.so plese kindly anybody give the right suggestion.
 
Copying to a FAT volume as limitations, your files are too big to fit. Try using HFS+ format or use NTFS but then you'll need software like Paragon NTFS for Mac or Tuxera NTFS to give OSX the ability to write to NTFS

Edit:Blueroom has better advice - I forgot about ExFat
