How do you transfer files from mac to word pc for school?  Paper keeps changing format when professor opens it on PC

I have Word 2011 on Mac 10.6.8.  I write my papers and save them as .docx  I submit them to my school online but every time My professor opens them he says the margins are set wrong.  He said to save them as a Word-Pc format.  How do I do this? Do I save it as RTF or as PDF?  He has to be able to make comments on the paper after along the right side.  I can not ask him to download anything t make it easier for me. I should be the one doing it correctly. I just do not know how.  Can you please tell me how I should be saving my papers so that they do not change format when he opens them on his PC?
And I do recheck and open and repen my paper to check and recheck my margins before I submit it and all is fine on my end.
Thanks for your help.

nnigel, Welcome to the discussion area!
I've been reading thru the discussions and yet to find a clear answer on how to transfer files from my external HD to time capsule.
If it is directly connected to your Mac via USB or FireWire, Time Machine will include it in the backup.
...but is it difficult to point the library to the music file on the Time Capsule?

  • How do I transfer files from mac with snow leopard to a new retina display mac

    What is the easiest way to transfer files from my old mac(2008) snow leopard to my new retina display mac book pro?

    Easiest? Well there is some sort of wireless transfer thing, but I hear it takes FOREVER like several days and it's glitchy.
    The Retina doesn't have a Firewire port I believe, so Target Disk Mode is out, unless you have a adapter and I don't know how well that will work out. Cost another $30 for the adpatper I bet.
    The likely most easiest?
    Run down to any computer or office store and pickup a powered external USB hard drive that's the same size or larger then the old Mac's boot drive.
    Boot the old Mac and download Carbon Copy Cloner.
    (or use the TimeMachine if it asks, but it takes a reallly long time and if there are problems, then it's harder to recover files from)
    Format the external drive in Disk Utility with Partition: option GUID and OS X Extended Journaled (default setting)
    Use CCC to clone OLD A boot drive to External Drive B, takes about a few hours depending how much stuff you have.
    Hook up drive to new Mac, (either clone or TimeMachine drive)
    Use the free Migration Assistant in your Application Utility folder to transfer over, but creates a new user account (you can later delete one)
    Or if you haven't set up the new Mac yet, when you do set it up during that process, you can transfer from the External Drive B and it won't have the account you set the machine up with naturally just uses the ones from the clone or TimeMachine drive.
    Once your fine and dandy on the new machine, then Disk Utility erase and use the external USB to create either a bootable clone with CCC or a TimeMachine drive for backup.
    Since you need a backup drive anyway, this method is better and happens to be reliable and easy.

    So, I guess there is no easy way to transfer files from a mac to a pc??? I remember easily transferring my pc files to the mac, and there are a ton of websites with info on how to transfer from pc to mac. But Ihave found virtually nothing on mac to pc transfer. I'm beginning to think I will have to go out to purchase a new hard drive. Any recommendations on a good one?
    There ia a very easy way to tranfer files from Mac to PC or PC to Mac. Very simple connect them to the same network (LAN), Log in to the other and select the files you want to copy an paste them to the other computer.
    I do it all the time. From Mac to PC and PC to Mac.
    No Problems at all. Much better then an external hard drive and moving it around. And No need to worry about drive format. Each OS takes care of that when files get copied over the network.

  • How do you transfer files from an internal hard drive in a broken Mac?

    My iMac G5 broke a while back, the power comes on but nothing comes on my screen and the fan goes into overtime. I don't mind not fixing it but I would like to take the files from my hard drive. How would I go about this?
    I've tried using a firewire cable but to no avail.

    all i can think of is to remove the HD from the Mac, put it in an external enclosure, and use data recovery software such as Data Rescue or FileSalvage to retrieve the data.
    good luck !

  • How can you transfer iMessages from mac to iPhone?

    Does anyone know how to transfer iMessages from either a mac or an iPad onto an iPhone? I want to transfer my history of messages from these devices onto my iPhone. Any help is very much appreciated.

    You can't...
    You might be able to copy the message chat files from the iPad to the iPhone using the iExplorer app, but it may not work if you're not on the same iOS version.
    However, the messages should sync up on their own, due to the iCloud function but if not, just reference the iPad until you don't need to anymore.
    You can use iExplorer and put the message history into a pdf and then put that PDF on your phone.

  • How can you transfer files from an iMac with a bad logic board?

    This is in reference to my "Nothing but a blue screen at startup!" post. He took his iMac to an Apple authorized repair shop and he was told that the logic board was shot. He has decided to get a new iMac but he's wondering about all the photos and other files he has on the old hard drive. What are the ways that he can get files from the old hard drive on to his new one when he gets it? Thanks in advance for your help with this!
    Eric

    Hi Eric!
    roam's method is a very good one!
    I don't know if this will work because of the bad Logic Board, but another way, may be to use Firewire Target Disk Mode.
    The ailing iMac would have to be Firewire enabled, and you would need access to another Firewire Mac.
    Good Luck!

  • How Do I Transfer File from Mac to Windows?

    I have a 5GB video file on the Mac that I would like to transfer to a Windows laptop.  Windows can not read my external mac drive and a 5GB file is to large for a FAT drive.  Is there an easy way to do this?

    Thanks for the quick reply, I am not familiar with ExFat, but I do have Windows 7.  Will see if I can figure out how to do that then.  I have a 16GB flash drive that I can try this on with.  I assume ExFAT does not have the GB limit that FAT drives have then.

  • How do you transfer photos from iPad to computer?

    How do you transfer photos from iPad to computer?

    For photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from email/websites then see this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    If you want to copy back photos that were originally synced from a computer then you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer (which has a free lite version called Simple Photo & Video Transfer) which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

    How can I transfer files from my mac to my iPad in an easier way?  I'd like to put some movies on, and I can use iTunes, but is there another way?  I have transferred epub books using Dropbox.  Movies eat up a lot of dropbox space and the iPad has trouble getting them.

    USB disk. You still have to go through iTunes.
    Connect device to computer/mac
    Select your device in iTunes menu.
    Apps...
    At thebottom of the page you will see the app.
    Select it and the Add for windows and + for mac
    Hope that helped.
    In the long run there is no way to access or uplood data on your device without iTunes unless you JailBrake....
