How do i transfer files from my mac to a windows pc

I have several files on my mac that i would also like to load onto my windows pc. How do I convert them?

What types of files are they that they would need 'conversion'? If the devices are on the same network, you can simply set one of them up to share and copy the files. If they're of a standard format, they likely don't need to be converted.

  • How can I transfer files from my mac to my iPad, e.g., mp4 files.  Do I have to use iTunes?

    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....

  • How do i transfer files from old mac with frozen screen?

    My PowerBook G4 just froze. I bought a new MacBook Pro. How do I transfer files from my old mac to my new one. I have firewire cable with firewire adapter for the new Mac. And the old mac has a disk that won't eject.

    Turn your PowerBook off. Connect both computers with the firewire cable and then start your PB in Target Disk Mode (press the T and the power button at the same time, and keep the T pressed until your PB's hard drive mounts on the MBP's desktop. Then, you can use Migration Assistant, or good ol' drag and drop, your call.
    If your PowerBook cannot enter Target Disk Mode, then you have bigger problems...;-)

  • How do I transfer files from old Mac to Mac Air using ethernet to usb connection?

    How can I transfer files from my previous Mac to new Mac Air using an ethernet cable from the Old Mac, connecting to the Mac Air with an Ethernet-to-USB adaptor?

    Yes, you can use the usb ethernet adapter.
    If you haven't started the new Air up yet, you can use the Setup Assistant that appears the first time you turn it on.
    Otherwise, you can just use the Migration Assistant utility.
    Cheers!

  • If i use a usb flash drive which is both os and windows compatible can i transfer files from my mac to a windows pc using the same usb flash drive?

    if i use a usb flash drive which is mac os and windows compatible can i use it to copy files from the mac to a windows machine. i have to do some training abroad and wnat to take the files on a usb from the mac but they will only have a windows operating system available to me.

    Generally, it's not the flash drive that makes it compatible, but the formatting used on it.  In Disk Utility on a Mac, the format is called MS-DOS (FAT).  In Windows, I believe it is called FAT32.
    A USB flash drive formatted that way should be readable and writable on both Mac OS X and Windows.  But you may want to try a "trial run" before relying on it for the trip.

    How do i transfer files from my pc to my new i mac

    I am struggling to transfer files over to my new Mac and the data migration at the store failed.  They didn't explain why - just told me I had to do it myself manually.
    I put all the files (lots of work stuff!) on my external hard drive, but the Mac isn't even showing these files in the library when I connect the external hard drive.  The Office Suite opens programs like Word, so it seems to have loaded properly.
    Ideas?

    What files are they? Is it a clone, a TM backup, or simply drag 'n drop?
    If it's the latter, simply drag them back. If something else, please post back with detailed info.

  • How transfer file from garageband mac to garageband iPad?

    how transfer file from garageband mac to garageband iPad?

    In answer to the question:
    how transfer file from garageband mac to garageband iPad?
    Transfering a file from Garageband on the Mac to Garageband in the iPad is not just a case of putting it in iTunes as a number of people seem to state.  The XML package which is the Garageband Song File has to be changed before a Garageband Mac file will be downloadable to the iPad.  This can be done manually but is time consuming and tedious.  After doing it manually a few times and making mistakes, I have created an Applescript Application to do this called:
    Garageband Mac to iPad Oneshot Converter
    I have made a video of the converter in use which I have post on my Youtube ' fixed1t ' pages.  This Application and the video solves the question above and shows the song file on the mac being moved and running on the iPad.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ruT-dUhh2c
    There is a link on the Description of the fixed1t youtube video to enable viewers to download a trial version. The link will also allow viewers to purchase a copy once you have tried i, but you are under no obligation to purchase and the trial is completely free.  I am selling it for £5 UK and I will receive over £4 of this should you decide to purchase using the PayPal link.
    Please try it out and give me feedback, even if you don't wish to buy it.
    Thanks Malcolm (aka fixed1t)

  • How do I transfer files from my PC to mini Mac if I only have one monitor?

    I'm going to be purchasing a Mac mini. I have a Windows PC running XP. I only have one display monitor, so I was wondering how do I transfer files from my XP to my mini Mac with only one monitor?
    Thanks

    You'd have to give us some more information in regard to the inputs of your display.
    Generally, you should be able to plug your current PC into one input (DVI most likely) and then the Mac mini into another (HDMI) then flip between the inputs on the monitor via the on-screen menu.

    If it does, please read this article (in particular this section):

  • How do i transfer files from mac to pc?

    How do I transfer files/data (all my pictures) from my mac to a pc? My external hard drive (pc) can be read by my Mac, but cannot be written on.

    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 can I transfer files from an old Mac onto my new one?

    As outlined on this thread, I am trying to get data from my 1995 Performa 630 to my recently delivered MacBook Pro.  All suggestions gratefully received.
    Also, are ClarisWorks files instantly readable by modern office software, or do I need to save in RTF or some other format, first, on the older machine?

    Hi...
    Your new MacBookPro has Mac OS X Lion v10.7.x installed on an Intel processor and cannot open or read ClarisWorks files as such.
    However, you may be able to reformat to RTF >  AppleWorks: Document Recovery Techniques
    The issue is going to be migrating files since you can't use Migration Assistant to transfer files from another Mac
