Hi May, I'm sure you know this already, but if a file will unzip in windows, it should unzip with the mac, the only difference is, that if you unzip a file in windows that was zipped up on the mac, there will be a harmless folder called mac osx, which you can safely discard, along with the .zip file, because windows doesn't know what to do with that folder in question, but other than that, there should be no problems, I just wonder if there is a specific hot key for zipping files on the mac, rather than having to do it from the file menu?

now, that is strange because I cannot open a file on the mac that I can't open in windows and vise versa if it is a true zip file.On Oct 7, 2009, at 9:18 PM, May McDonald wrote: Yes with no problems.
