“Transferring Files from PC to MAC I just purchased a new iMac and want to transfer all my pictures and videos from my Vista PC to iMac. What format does it need to be in order for both computers to access the files? FAT32? Once I transfer everything to the iMac I'll no longer need my PC to read it because I'm getting rid of it.”

depending on the size of your files I would just use a flash drive to transfer the files and format the drive for the new mac to use for back up of whatever your end plan was - hope that helps - at least thats what I do and or did - during a resent transfer of my photo library from one computer to another since my laptop internal drives was so small - I transferred my entire photo library to the previously formatted drive using disc utility hfs journaled format = not case sensitive but a guid partition to make it bootable as it is also a backup drive - I then used the flash drive to transfer my photo library to the external drive as my internal drive is too small to hold it all
