and inserting another. Mac HFS+ Disk Support
remembers which session you last used on a par-
ticular disc, and will return you to that session if
that disc is used again.
To choose which volume of a multisession CD to
display:
1 Right-click the multisession disc whose dis-
play you want to change, and choose
Mac Volumes from the shortcut menu.
2 Choose the name of the volume you want to
display from the submenu.
Setting the File Naming Mode
When you view files on a Mac-formatted drive,
you can change the way the filenames are dis-
played for that drive from the shortcut menu.
To set the file naming mode for a Mac drive:
1 Right-click the drive whose file naming mode
you want to change, and choose Mac File Names
from the shortcut menu.
2 Choose one of the following from the sub-
menu:
Normal This mode maximizes compatibility
with a wide range of software, and preserves in-
ternational characters where possible.
International This mode is appropriate for a disk
containing files named using international Uni-
code characters, in cases where preservation of
those characters is important, but compatibility
with a wide range of software is less important.
This is the default setting.
Backup/File Transfer This mode is appropriate
for tape backups of Mac disks, or transfers of files
from one Mac disk to another, including be-
tween a true Mac disk and an NTFS volume stor-
ing a Services for Mac network share. This mode
preserves Unicode characters, but, unlike the
other two modes above, does not append artifi-
cial file name extensions for software-compati-
bility purposes.
Partitioning Mac Drives
The HFS+ Disk Manager gives you the ability to
create and delete partitions on Mac-formatted
hard drives.
When using HFS+ Disk Manager, make sure to
note the following:
• While you can leave part of a disk unused
(called Unallocated space by HFS+ Disk Man-
ager), you will not be able to make a PC parti-
tion or volume (FAT, FAT32, NTFS, or
otherwise) in the unallocated space. The only
thing you can do with unallocated space is to
make additional Mac partitions in it in the fu-
ture, or simply leave it unused.
Mac HFS+ Disk Support does not change the
names of files on the Mac-formatted drive,
it only affects the way they are displayed in
Windows. Similarly, setting the File Nam-
ing Mode does not affect filenames on disk,
it only changes the way they are displayed
in Windows.
If you use this command to partition a Mac-
formatted drive, it will not be officially sup-
ported as a Playback/Record volume.
Though Pro Tools may be able to play back
and record to such a drive, only HFS+ disks
formatted on a Mac using Apple Disk Util-
ity are supported for playback and recording
