If you format on a Mac can you still use on a PC?

I know it used to be if you formated you iPod to a pc you could use it on both pc and Mac. But if you formated to a Mac you cant ever use it on a PC. Is that still true?

Kevin Torres,
In reviewing this documentation it appears that your statement can work in theory, but is only supported with iPod shuffles: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1335
Hope this helps,

  • When using the migrate tool to migrate from windows to mac, can you use ethernet to connect the computers to each other?

    When using the migrate tool to migrate from windows to mac, can you use ethernet to connect the computers to each other? In the Migration tool, I was only given the option of choosing the computer when it appeared on the same network, and didn't see an option to connect them to each other. Even though they're both connected to the same network with a wired connection, the migration is painfully slow.

    Yes. The following quotation is from About Windows Migration Assistant
    These are the preferred network connections, in order:
    Use a CAT6-certified Ethernet cable that is in good condition to connect the Ethernet port of the PC directly to the Ethernet port of the Mac or Ethernet adaptor (USB or Thunderbolt). You shouldn't use an Ethernet cable that has any kinks in it or is missing connector tabs.
    Use CAT6-certified Ethernet cables that are in good condition to connect the Mac and PC to your home network router/hub/switch. You shouldn't use an Ethernet cable that has any kinks in it or is missing connector tabs.
    For wireless, use the fastest wireless signal possible (802.11n 5Ghz). Try to have the PC, Mac, and the wireless access point all in the same room close to each other.

    If you bought Reader, you were swindled, because it's a free program. And it has never been able of converting PDF files to any other format.

  • Can i still use pay as you go plan on a smartphone prepaid plan?

    can i still use pay as you go plan on a smartphone prepaid plan?

    Yes you can. However, 4G smartphones cannot be activated on prepaid. 3G devices have 3 different available plans. Verizon has an exclusive plan with Walmart which consists of unlimited talk and text with a 1GB for $50. The other 2 plans are unlimited talk and text with 2GB for $60 or 4GB for $70

  • If you have a smart phone, can you conect it to the new wrieless ipad's or do you need to order the wireless service from verizon?

    If you have a smart phone, can you connect it to the new wireless ipad's or do you need to order the wireless service from Verizon for ipad's or do you need to order the wireless service from verizon?

    Kneehightoughguy,
    You do not need to purchase service from a carrier unless you want to utilize the iPads connection to a 3G Network on it's own (directly).  You may choose to add a Tethering plan onto your existing cell phone plan and to have an iPad connect to the Wifi connection that the Tethered phone would offer.
    Always compare your usage and your costs, as your mileage may vary.

  • I dropped my macbook pro and the screen is broken can i still use it with an external monitor? Or can I or how do I transfer hard drive files to my mac mini?

    I dropped my 17" macbook pro and the screen is broken. Can I still use it with an external monitor? When I plugged it into a monitor I had used it with before, I'm not able to see anything on the macbook screen to control it. It came on but I just got the blue screen with nothing else after typing in my password. (Didn't see the password form just assumed it was there somewhere and it did go from space to blue screen but no desktop icons, files, dock strip at top or anything else, just blank blue screen) so I can't access the system preferences.
    Or can I / or how do I, transfer hard drive files to my mac mini? If not salvageable as is can I pull out the hard drive and make it an external harddrive? In otherwords is anything salvageable? It seems it's coming on I just can't access anything. BTW I was told it would cost aprox $1000 to replace the screen! I paid almost $4000 for this thing and it was running great - makes me sick to lose it!

    I'd like to promise you that everything will be fine if you just get the monitor going - but it's hard to know what the hardware damage might be. It might be the monitor, or the damage might be greater.
    Your best solution would be visit your local Apple Store and let them know what your situation is. They have access to diagnostics you don't, and they might be able to the best way to save your data and keep you computing. It's still not covered, but they can tell you what your current options are.
    Um, you might consider investing in a backup drive.
    And there other repair options, too. Powerbook Medic http://www.powerbookmedic.com/xcart1/pages.php?pageid=67 offers reliable repairs, and quotes prices well under Apple's.

  • If I have a Mac Mini ( no Disk Drive ) Can I Still Use Boot Camp ?

    Hi, I have a ma mini... but i have came to a conclusion that I have no disk drive... so can i still use bootcamp ? I was wondering because all of the tutorials I watch, they tell me to insert my disk into the disk drive.
    -Thanks for The Help

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If you have a Mac mini without a built-in SuperDrive, you have two ways to install Windows on your Mac using Boot Camp:
    - If you have Windows in a ISO file > open Boot Camp Assistant, tick the option to create a Windows installation USB drive and follow the steps.
    - If you have Windows in a DVD > buy an external optical drive, connect it to your computer, open Boot Camp Assistant and follow the steps to install Windows.
    Don't forget to download Windows support software, and install it just after finishing the Windows installation.
    If you need help installing Windows, print this file > http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.7.pdf

  • I downloaded Mozilla when I first got my Mac.Is it a better than Safari?I tried Safari and I did not care for it. So can I still use cmd t or cmd n for opening multiple sites?

    I downloaded Mozilla firefox when I first got my mac as I did not like safari.Thah being said,which is better? and lastly can I still use cmd t or cmd with firefox for opening multiple sites? Thanks,Ralph

    You need to visit this page and learn all about Firefox's awesome features, don't ignore the add-ons, toolbar>customize or persona's they really personalize Firefox.
    http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/central/
    Also you need to make sure your browser plugins are current for your whole machine, Safari included.
    http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
    I hope one day Apple will make Safari as awesome as Firefox and allow the choice it has, but not today.

  • Can I still use Appleworks 6.2.9 with Mac Mini 2012?

    Can I still use Appleworks 6.2.9 with Mac Mini 2012?

    Yes, MlchaelLAX, the KVM switch allow one to use one monitor, one keyboard, and one mouse between two computers.  It has been so long that I'm not sure how to find the MODELS to the G4 and G5. Unless you mean what makes the Mac tick.  The G5 is a dual 2GHz PowerPC, with 2 GB DDR SDRAM.  The G4 is a bit slower, will look tomorrow.
    I want/need a newer Mac model because unlike the days before OS X, all software was included as the newer OS were added, not so today.  I'm still using Tiger because I still use a couple programs from the old days.  When I eventually purchase a new model, I will have to buy all new software.  That's find if one has plenty of money and wants to learn everything from scratch, but I'm hanging on as long as I can.
    I tried TenFourFox, but it didn't allow video, of course since I tried Michael's suggestion, the video might not be an issue.  So far, every thing works the way it should. 
    I have a lot of faith in Mac users, their loyalties to Apple is what kept Apple floating when many thought it would sink.  These folks are survivors; I only wish the apple people on the top appreciated that loyalty today, but I guess things are too good.
    Thanks to all for you kindness.  Tomorrow I will show my husband how to remove his yellow threat on his G4.  If anyone can answer any other questions, please know I will keep viewing this post.
