    Hey,

    I have a Mac PC, not sure which one. Bought it around 2007 brand new. It's nearing the end of its days so I need to replace it. I was thinking of changing to a Windows PC for a change.

    However, all my photos are on my MAc and my external hard-drive is only Mac compatible!! The ext. hard-drive became compatible to the 1st PC it was plugged into. Is it easy to transfer these photos across to a Windows PC?

    Also, my emails are synced to the Mac and I access them by hitting the Mail icon without having to enter my password etc every time. Is it possible to i) Have the same option on Windows desktop ii) have my old emails transferred over to the Windows?

    Thanks

    buy a new mac

    The narrower a man’s mind, the broader his statements.

    You could burn your stuff to dvd or usb stick but I can't imagine why you would even think of going the pc/windows way. :eek:

    It requires additional software and is so slow but it can be done.
