I have:
1. windows pc (2011) with W7;
b. imac with OS (2012)
c. time machine disk (Apple, 2TB)

I want to use disk for backup windowspc and imac. The latter no problem. First however huge problem: it doesnot work. I have tried several programs.

What do I need to do in order to back my windows pc up on the Aplle disk?

Why don't you just buy an external drive that has 500 GB to 1 TB storage and backup everything from your Win7 PC to that. Very simple, straight forward. And the external drives aren't that expensive any more.

Hi,

Yes, that is a possibility. It is however not what I want. I have had many drives and the whole purpose of buying a big one is getting everything on one drive in my network.

When I bought this I was told that this was possible as well as easy!
