then how were you originally trying to transfer the files ?!?
IT security wise, a USB port cannot tell the difference between a flash drive,
solid state drive or a spinning drive.

No reformatting of the PPTX is needed between Mac & Windows - the file format
is interchangeable.
That is one thing Microsoft finally got around to fixing after 30 years of
developing Powerpoint. Now if they could figure out feature parity.
Your best friend is always a $3 flash drive

99% of the time they arrive ready for Windows & Macintosh, so you plug in &
copy, move to the other computer, plugin & copy.

Yeah, that’s what I thought
I formatted the powerpoint for pptx and any others I could think of
I gave up , and made the MD send me his lecture through Dropbox and
reformatted it for PC
The business world works in PC- our hospital will not support MAC at all and
yet all of the MD’s are running around with 20 year old MAC laptops…
Thanks for all of the advice!

Denice, walk us through your precise process.
And this is 2 separate issues? (maybe for the same project, i am assuming)
I think a simple USB flash drive (almost always default formatted to FAT-32
or FAT-16) would help with the video files.
Eric is completely right that Windows and Macintosh, by default, cannot write
to the other's modern file systems (NTFS, HFS+, APFS). Macintosh can read
NTFS by default, Windows cannot read or write HFS+ or APFS.
To keep it really simple & non-confusing, Microsoft didn't release Powerpoint
v. 14 for Windows, but did release v. 14 as Macintosh Powerpoint 2011. And
then MS only released Powerpoint v. 15 as Powerpoint 2013 for Windows, with
no v. 15 for Macintosh....
Both versions should support *.pptx and *.ppt though.
