Wolf68k Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 They are hidden files that are the Mac. This is normal. They show up on the PC because Windows doesn't know what they are and there for doesn't know to hide them. You can delete them from the drive if you want and still be able to plug the thumbdrive back into the Mac with nothing bad happening, just don't be surprised if they show up again when you plug it back in to a PC.
