im thinking about resetting my ipod so i can run updates and all that stuff on my mac but before i do i just gotta make sure that windows pc's will stilll recognize it as an axternal drive and be able to read/write it. just checking because i dont want i to be like re-formatted or sumthin like that as this is my primary way to transfer files from my mac to pc's.
Got a tip for us?

Once you format the iPod on your Mac, your PC won't be able to read/write like it used to. There are programs out there that allow PCs to read Mac-formatted external hard drives, so that may still be an option for you. It won't be as seamless as it is right now, though.
ok thats what i was worried about. but i did get my flash drive fixed (the usb connector got bent and it wouldnt go in properly) so now that that works i might be able to use that.
