It might be just the way its formatted. Try using disk utility and reformat it to a format that PC and Mac can read...
Or format it on the PC and the mac will ready it.

Also, I've got a Kingston and my fiancé has a Lexmark that work on both platforms w/o hassle.

My Fuji brand works on both platforms as well, as long as it's formatted on the PC, not the Mac.
