Facts! I just used it 💯 The power of youtube. I saw another video that was trying to get me to download an app from the website, I was like next and came across this helpful video

I was puzzled for about 30 minutes as to why I couldn’t move files to my newly purchased external hard drive, but you are the hero of today. Straightforward video with great explanations. Thank you!

Thank you very much for teaching us this! For years I have wondered why some external drives allow file transfer between both Mac and PC (these external drives were likely already formatted as ExFAT), or did not allow transfer of Mac files to the external drive (these drives were likely formatted as OS X Extended). Simple solution and great tutorial!

This was EXTREMELY helpful. I’m a complete computer dummy and I was able to follow you step by step. Thank you so much!

Thank you for such an 'easy to follow' video. I was finally able to move files from my Macbook to a hard drive that was originally formatted on a Windows laptop.

This is 6years later. Came across your video today. Thank you so much. You’ve saved me from a week of frustration not being able to transfer to my drive.

Seriously, after six months of trying all that I could, including other suggestions from youtube videos, this is the only video that specified the root of the problem why I wasn't able to transfer my Mac pictures on to my USB! Thank you so much for this valuable information.

Ummm why would I want to erase everything on my hard drive just to make it compatible?!?

This was extremely helpful -- thank you! I managed to fix my mom's external hard drive with this video. We had no idea what was wrong before but were able to fix it quickly once we watched! :)

Thank you!!! Was lost for a minute, but it all came back. I'm glad people like you create these walk throughs!

Dude.. THANK YOU! 2 Years after you posted this, it's still an issue and your video helps solve it.

This video helped me so much and now I can finally move them all to my external hard drive. You were a huge help my dude!

Extremely useful tutorial . It was done with clarity . Thank you . I was able to transfer my files from MacBook Pro to Sony external hard disk . It had the format of NTFS. But after changing to EXFAT I was able to transfer . Thank you so much for this extremely good video tutorial 💕💕💕

I found this helpful to understanding why I couldn't move things and it was exactly the NTFS thing. I didn't want to risk deleting everything so I just used another flash drive that did work on the Mac to transfer my files onto there first and then used my Windows PC to transfer it from the small flash drive to my backup drive. A bit longer, but at least I have everything where I want it now!

I'm glad I didn't read the bad reviews you had here!! Your tutorial was very helpful and I could transfer my files perfectly. Thank you very much!!!

Worked like a charm! Many thanks for your help! ☺️

Thank you...that was extremely easy to follow. really appreciated.

Thanks for the amazing video! Since I deleted everything on my hard drive I now have enough space to copy all the other files from my Mac onto it.This is great! Much appreciated! Also the fantastic click sound really helps to understand when and where to click!. 5 star video!!!

So grateful for this video! Just got a new Mac and learning everything over. Boy is it complicated

good video and good info but maybe consider checking the volume of your mic before you record and turning off the sound of your mouse when you click on something. Thank you for the video

THANK YOU !! This is really helpful . Honestly I don’t mind the clicking sound at all , it lets me know when u r making a click so I can follow along fully . Thank you !!

This enabled me, definitely a software user rather than a Apple pro, to fix my problem myself!!!!! THANK YOU!

Thank you very much! I just had this problem - 6 years later - your video helped me a lot!

For some reasons after doing made my hard drive not work anymore?

such a nice video, although id prefer the click sound to be more louder

Ok this video is clearly old but helped me so so much so thank you! As a new Mac user I'm discovering things are a bit more complicated then I thought but videos like this help so much!

Its really work ! *WARNING* transfer all your files in your harddisk first and then u can format. follow this step.it is so easy. 1.transfer all your files on your hardisk.whether to another harddisk,pc or to your mac if the storage is enough. 2.connect your harddisk with no files to your mac 3.click search on your mac (top right), type DISK UTILITY 4.click your external harddisk name then there is ERASE on top 5.click erase then choose format "ExFAT" 6.finish.u can transfer all your files on your harddisk. Thanks.
