This may be a stupid question but kind of new to the whole Ipod video. If someone sets up their ipod on itunes on a PC can I then hook it up to my Mac and copy some videos from my mac itunes library onto their ipod?



Thanks for the help

    I know the Music library on the iPod will work cross-platform. But using it as a hard-drive MIGHT depend on how it was formatted... Sorry I can't be of help... but it won't hurt anything to just plug it in and try it.

    I think it works one-way. I'm pretty sure the Mac side can read the PC-formatted drive (FAT32?), but the PC side can't read a Mac-formatted drive (NTFS?)



    sorry for the question marks, but I'm not sure about the naming of the two file formats (please correct me)
