Is there any way to make a 40GB VGF AP1L mount as a portable USB hard drive on a Mac? It's formatted in NTFS, which I thought Macs could at least read as read-only, but it won't mount at all on any of my friends' Macs. If I were to back up the entire device onto my computer's hard drive, reformat as FAT32, and then transfer everything back, would that work? Or would I simply be wrecking my device?
(I tried to search the forum for this topic, but "Mac" is too short a keyword for the search engine! And searching on FAT32 didn't quite bring up what I needed.)
