If I have formatted an external drive from my Mac, and its in HFS+ format, and I want to be able to view it on my PC....

Does anyone have a suggestion of a program that will let me do so?

The only one I have found to date is one called MacDisk, but it looks a bit rinky-dink.

Suggestions?

Thanks!

Do you mean MacDrive by MediaFour? It's pretty much the only game in town, as far as I know. You can download a trial if you haven't already.

As others have pointed out, there are ways to do this. To be honest, though, since you have two machines you are probably better off networking them (wired or wireless) so that both machines can use the drive at the same time.

Hmm, no, I found another program called MacDisk that was made by some offshores company.

I can't network the machines because I don't have the Mac anymore...

Any other ideas, particularly of a freeware/shareware variety?

Thanks!
