This is a common question. The answers are getting a bit old, like the Everio itself, but Google is your friend. I found the question at an Adobe help forum: https://forums.adobe.com/message/3154985For Mac users, try: http://www.iskysoft.com/convert-tod/tod-video-converter-mac.html

With any version of Cyberlink Power Director, you can convert TOD and many other files easily. You can choose between Mac or Windows.

Greetings, I have many files that were created on a Mac and converted to mov format saved on an external hard drive half-tera and have never had any problems when opening. Hope this helps

I am using Mac OS X. I want to burn CD's with images that will play in a DVD player. What format do I need to use for saving the files? JPEG, TIFF, PICT, PDF? Thanks for the input.

Files such as txt, doc, pdf, and other cross-platform files can be transferred over to a Mac from a PC as long as you have formatted the hard drive correctly (exFAT). I'd definitely recommend reading up on the drive format and transferring files as there are a lot of great online resources. Keep in mind that .exe or executable files (applications) are not cross platform and therefore you can't open up MS Word from a PC on a Mac. However, documents, videos, etc. should all have some cross-platform application that can read/write them when required. Although, some content may need to be transformed (video formats on PC aren't super kind on Mac). One final note - fonts. You may have awesome files that are formatted with great fonts and the like on a Mac or PC. These layouts don't translate well in Word or Powerpoint due to the differences in fonts from one platform to the next. PDF is a great way to ensure accurate layout, but expect layouts to shift if fonts differ from one computer to the next. PS I use Unix, PC and Mac, so I have a lot of ways to transfer content between the three (although I use UNIX primarily for serving web content and programming, so that's not that relevant here). Also, if you want to run Windows on a Mac, I would recommend looking into Parallels or Boot Camp. I prefer Parallels because I can have Windows apps open along with Mac apps at the same time. Just make sure you beef up on RAM and processor speeds. Knowledge is power, so make sure you use the web to fill in your knowledge gaps. Don't want to lose data!

I also ended up using FAT32; I haven't seen any downside if you want to just store files... except the maximum file size. I don't know of any cross-platform format that has no file size limit, so my advice is FAT32 with the hope somebody else here knows of a better one! :)P.S: I have this exact product, and after a a few different attempts I found FAT32 to work for using it to move stuff from my windows 7 desktop to snow leopard macbook pro

My recommendation would be to get the Windows version and leave it as a single NTFS partition. Just load the included utility on your Mac so that it will read/write to an NTFS disc and use the single large partition for both platforms. Makes it easy to share files cross-platform that way.

I pulled out the disc that came with the software and it doesn't say Mac version anywhere on it. I also went to their website and it only lists downloads for Windows based software.

It was NTSC formatted. If you want to use it with both Windows and Mac then format it with ExFAT file system.

Downloaded TT2009 Deluxe yesterday onto my Mac. Got through the federal file just fine, saved it, and started the state download - then, poof! - it was gone! When I go back to the document file it tells me that the file cannot be opened because it was created with an older version of TT. Anyone else had this kind of problem? I know I used the current application, because it named the file for me and uses a ".tax2009" extension. I'm afraid to start over, because this might be a software issue vs. operator error. Tax time is bad enough without doing them over and over and over again...

If you're using a mac, look into yep: http://www.yepthat.com/yep/index.html It has worked well for me.

You should be able to access most files that have a common app (Mac and PC) - the challenge will be saving any updates.Typically PC formatted external drives are FAT32, which will convert to the MAC, but not able to be write enabled back.The exception will be music and photos, they should be available for iTunes and iPhoto imports.

Any non-linear editor that supports .mts files. Even if they don't, there are tools you can find to convert MTS to AVI or whatever.

I suggest you look at their website for their supported systems: http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/drive_bracket/datadoubler/

I use mine with Lion and it works BUT the bundled organizational software (Rack2Filer) is Windows-only. The scanning, OCR, etc., software itself does work with Mac. But I would not recommend paying more for the bundle if you have a Mac.

The cd version definitely works on Macs. I have been using TurboTax for years as a Mac owner so have no fear:)

If you are using this with a Mac try using Hazel. It is available in the App Store. It is a great little app to manage the location of files
