I recently purchased an 8 gig jump (flash) drive specifically to move some quicktime files from my mac to one of my editor's pc's.

Apparently jump drives are formatted as Fat32 so they are cross compatible, but Fat32 limits individual files to 4 gigs max.

Another words, even though my drive is 8 GBs if any of my files exceed 4 GBs, they cannot be copied over to the drive.

Anyone have a simple workaround for this specific issue?

Thanks in advance!
