How do i make my hard drive be recognizable by both MAC and Windows? I have a seagate 500gb external hard drive and I had to reformat it in my HP laptop. After doing so, whenever i use a mac, my hard drive cant be recognized by it. And so i tried reformatting it again this time, using a mac. But it was windows, who couldnt recognize it this time. Finally, i made a partition thats recognizable by both mac and windows. But it is too much of a hassle. whenever i wanna access the files that were saved from a mac in my windows, it is IMPOSSIBLE TO DO SO. HELP. I JUST WANT A DECENTLY WORKING HARD DRIVE. How do i make my files accessible to both mac and windows? Thanks
