Just ordered new rMBP - few questions

I have my new rMBP for 2 days now and the only thing I can say is this computer is awesome. Display is amazing. I can't understand how could I do anything on my previous display. I super fast too. Now I need to export 100 photos as long as 5 photos before.

I'd like to ask something, too. When I downloaded LR and PS from adobe, I got one file into Finder named Adobe. Within this file is another file named AdobePatchFiles with two ZIP files inside. Does anyone what is the purpose of this files?
 
And one more thing I'd like to ask.

When I want to copy anything on my external hard disk, I am not able to do that. I think it must be like that, because when I connected it for the first time, I decided to not use this drive as a back up.

Can you please tell me how can I arrange this.

If the external drive is NTFS-formatted, you cannot copy any files to it. However, you can copy files from it to your Mac.

I don't know if it is NTFS-formatted or not, but I can normally copy anything on it when connected to PC.

There you go. If it works normally when with a PC but not with Mac, it's NTFS formatted.

You can only copy files to the hard drive from OS X if the drive is formatted in a HFS+ format (like Mac OS Extended-Journaled) or FAT (can be FAT32 or exFAT).

And this can not be changed?
