I have a windows formatted external hard drive and a macbook pro. I was wondering if i could use the windows migration assistant to transfer files from my external hard drive to the mac
MacBook, Windows 7
No.
Just connect the drive to your Mac. The Mac can read most Windows formats (it cannot WRITE Windows New Technology File System (NTFS) formatted drives.
What it does: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4796
While OS X can read and mount NTFS it is not as reliable or good as commercial Paragon NTFS 10 for OS X $19 that mounts any and allows writing to NTFS.
Can i use windows migration assistant to transfer files from my windows formatted external hard drive to my mac?
