Aa yes,  Mac keeps what amounts to a hidden recycle folder on the media it 
is keeping material for.

I found those and deleted in the normal way.

I take it using media on different platforms is not a good idea?

Hi,

As others have said you can put the content on your stream simply by copying 
and pasting. However, I have noticed that the mac seems to put hidden files 
on the SD card that eventually fill up space. Just a couple of weeks ago I 
noticed that I was missing over a gig of space on my 4GB SD card. I couldn't 
find the culprits either on my mac or using a windows PC. I finally had to 
back up the folders that I had stuff in and then format the SD card using 
the stream. Once I did that I copied the folders from my computer back to 
the SD card and like magic I had my full space back.

Gabe
