Thank you for the link, and picture this really helps.
Here is the scenerio:
Just a few days ago I purch my macbook (see signature for specs). I have a PC with Winxp and wanted to trans all itunes library, photos, etc off of it and onto Mac. I have successfully have thanks to many here in this community been able to deauthorize PC, trans all iTunes library to mac backed up library to WD external harddrive. My next goal is all photos and videos.
My goal is to get all photos and videos from my pc to my WD external hd. Then from there trans to my Mac. From that point I will organize, events, faces, edit, etc. Then put them all back on WD external hd for safe keeping.
Now that is unless, "Time Machine" is safe enough for all my pictures and videos...I am still learning all about my mac and I have not set up Time Machine yet.
Finally, I do have many documents, files, photos, etc already on WD external hd (5 years worth) so...?
Thanks for your replies
