Paragon NTFS & HFS+ Beta
Read NTFS and HFS+ files on your Android device with Paragon NTFS & HFS+ Beta

If you have an Android tablet or smartphone, you have almost certainly used some form of memory card to expand the amount of available storage. Ordinarily, to ensure compatibility between Windows PC and Macs, media used in your Android device needs to be formatted as a FAT32 drive.

If you were to use a Windows formatted NTFS drive, it could not be used in a Mac, and if you were to use a Mac formatted HFS+ drive it could not be used in a PC. Paragon NTFS & HFS+ Beta is a free tool that helps you to overcome this problem. Providing you have rooted your Android device – or you are happy to do so – this free tool enables you to access data on both NTFS and HFS+ volumes.

The app is particularly useful if you want to copy files from your computer onto your tablet or cell phone, and it helps to avoid any potential compatibility issues as well as eliminating the need to email files to yourself or finding some other roundabout way of copying files from one place to another.

This is a beta version of the app, but it is already looking fairly interesting. The fact that root access is required may be off-putting to some people but for anyone who works with both Macs and PCs, this is a valuable tool that is worth investigating.

Verdict:

 Not a tool for everyone, but one that blurs boundaries between your Mac, PC and Android device.

Ashampoo Burning Studio 2013 (v11.0.6)

Free Full Commercial Software

Ashampoo Burning Studio 2013 is a compact, simple, but surprisingly feature-packed disc burning suite.

The program makes it easy to create simple data discs and audio CDs, for instance: just drag and drop your files onto the list area and you'll be burning the finished disc in a couple of clicks.

That's just the start, though. Burning Studio 2013 can also create data discs with customised, interactive multi-page menus, perfect if you'd like a more professional way to share and present the disc contents.

A built-in backup tool allows you to create backups which may be encrypted, compressed, and span several CDs, DVDs and Blu-rays.

And there are modules to create VCD or SVCD video projects; burn video DVDs or Blu-ray discs from prepared folders; create, browse or burn disc images (ISO, CUE/ BIN and Ashdisc formats are supported); copy discs, erase them, design and print disc covers, labels and booklets, and more.

The focus throughout is on ease of use, though, and so Ashampoo Burning Studio 2013 remains very straightforward, whatever you're doing. Most disc projects are created via the same simple interface, and for the most part all you have to do is drag and drop the necessary files. But experts will find more advanced options are only a click away, and if you need to then you can set ISO and UDF version, enable Joliet, make a disc bootable and more.

Note the download here will take you to the Downloadcrew Software Store where you can download Burning Studio 2013.
