Will flash drive work in mac then on pc?
When you buy a flash drive it is already formatted in a way that Windows can understand. The good news is that Macs can understand it too. So you can use a Mac to save files onto the flash drive and then read them on a Windows PC, or the other way round, no problem. If you used Disk Utility on the Mac to format the flash drive, then there is a chance that Windows won't be able to read it. So don't do that unless you know what you are doing.

To do so, you need to use a program named MacDrive to allow your PC to access its contents.
