Mac To PC File Transfer Problem
We take a lot of photos at work and burn them onto a DVD, using the PowerMac G5, 10.4.11, for the customer. Just a straight forward drag the files to a Burn Folder and burn.
On this occasion, the task covered four addresses. The photos for each address were put in individual folders. Each folder was then dragged to the Burn Folder.
Each folder/photo from the subsequent DVD could be read on the Mac. When inserted into the DVD drive on a PC, trying to open each folder resulted in the following message: "Not accessable. The folder has been removed or moved" Selecting the DVD in My Computer and looking at it's Properties gave a file size of 1Gb. Selecting the individual folders gave file sizes of 0 bytes.
Any ideas why this happens?
I can only think it's something to do with the burn process on the Mac. The solution we found was to create the Burn Folder, then create the individual address folders in the Burn Folder, and then drag over the photos to the repective folders.
Any ideas why the second method works but not the first?
