I want to do a quick Word file backup on my wife’s PC. Can I use a DVD? – Thanks, JW
You sure can, JW. I don’t know what DVD burning software you have on the PC, but it should be easy enough.
For what it’s worth, however, several slightly easier, and perhaps cheaper, ways to do this are:
~ Email those files to your Mac.
~ Use a flash drive (also called thumb drive, RAM stick, memory stick), which might be cheaper in the long run if you plan to do a lot of this.
~ Turn File Sharing on on the Mac and just drag the files across your home network.
Please call me for any additional explanation on that one, or here’s one quick explanation on the web.
Here’s a longer one.
Then, backing those files up, to a DVD or exteral hard drive is, like everything else on the Mac, easier to explain.
