Anyone using this app. I need to transfer files larger than 4 gb between my Windows PC at work and my MAC at home and of course my external FAT32 drive does not like files this large. Thinking of converting it to NTFS and using the above app to read the files off the external NTFS formatted drive.
Just want to know if it works fine before I buy it.
 
Rather use NTFS-3G_2009.4.4-catacombae and Macfuse.
 
I use NTFS for Mac on my MacBook and it works like a charm. I have been using it for the past 3 years and it has never given me problems once. I am now using it with Snow Leopard 10.6.2 and it still has never given me a problem. Its definitely worth the money as it isn't very expensive
 
Thanks guys - I like to install something and it works - don't like messing around in terminal and such and NTFS for mac is now on special so will probably get it for 19.95. Just wanted confirmation that it works as advertised.
(damn these movie files of 4gb)
 
Yup, I went from 10.6.0>10.6.1>10.6.2, still works perfectly.

Ever since installing this, I can no longer select which OS to start from System Preferences. I have to reboot and use the option key - which is not a major problem though.
 
You can install MacDrive (Mediafour.com) on your PC and then you can format your USB stick/Ext HDD HFS+ and it will be readable under Windows.
