Thank you bro, I was struggling trying to figure this out. Had to go buy another external, but ultimately it was worth it!

Excellent video. Short and precise. I just did it with my 2Tb Seagate. It worked, took me like a minute!!! I also added files from both Mac and PC to check!!! Thank you!!

Be careful with seagate. Mine got corrupted, and weren’t able to recover all files 😢

Can I create two partitions with different file systems so that I can use 50% of it with Windows and 50% of it with Mac?

Thank you

very simple. Appreciate it brotha

Thanks for the video. Does the ExFAT format work with Time Machine as good as the Mac OS Extended Journaled format?

Gracias 😀😀😀

i had formated a Seagate external drive and i put pix on it. i went to open up and it would not open, what do i do?

I might of missed it but can you plug and save from windows and mac with just this formatting ? For example I'm saving a video from my windows and then I plug it to my mac and save a video as well?

Any limitations? Read that exfat doesn’t let you transfer 4gb+ files.

Does using exFAT effect performance?

ok so how do I do this in the opposite directon moving from windows to mac. I haven been using a external hardrive on my windows and need to open files on a mac but I've been scared to plug it into a mac and lose data. what should I do ?

if you get new Mac does the external drive need to be formatted again?

Hello, if do I lose my saved files if I reformat my hard drive to an exFat ?

Does it delete already existing files in the hard drive if I have it reformatted?

used to see exfat format option on high serria but i updated to mojave and now i only see APFS formats only? please help

Help! I have Samsung Portable SSD T7 Shield 1TB. I followed your instructions it worked with Mac. when I plug the drive to Windows it said This Read only Partition --- Help!!

What happens if you couldnt find it

no way to do so without deleting all of the files?

if i have a hard drive that is alredy only working an a mac and i do this will it erase every thing on it?

I just learned the hard way... answer is yes

So for the first time ever, I’ve set up an external hard drive from a third party instead of a Time Capsule as a back-up disk (working with Time Machine). Upon recognizing this hard drive, my Mac created an icon on my desktop. The same happens when you plug in a USB drive. But... after using your USB, you should eject it safely. Should I do the same with the external hard disk before shutting down my Mac?

You should have a Mac and a PC on your desk tho. Lol just noticed at the end you have 2 macs on your desk

What if it doesn’t show on disk utility?

A bit late. But click view, and Show all drives.

I read something online that said this method only works for files less than 4GB? Is that true and if so is there a way to share larger files between Mac and PC?

If there are files on the external drive, will this erase them?

I hope you were able to save them somehow.

This was way too fast for a Mac beginner. You didn’t even say what the spotlight is. Next time please zoom in on the areas of interest. It’s hard to follow on my iPhone. You know what you are doing; now try to explain it a bit better to a beginner!

Get on a mic. Audio needs to be better
