Hey all,

I bought an IOMEGA 500GB PORTABLE DISK DRIVE in powercity today so that I could copy some files from a mac and use them on my laptop.

Now the drive registers on the mac but whenever I try to copy a file and drag them to the disk drive it wont allow me to do it. Its a .mov file thats about 30 minutes long. Does anyone have any ideas why it wont allow me to copy the file?

Thanks in advance

How big is the .mov file, and which file system is the HDD?
