CF card tunes - duplicate track names?

Hi,
I have loaded from a MAC os X some MP3s to a CF card2 GB, and the G35 (08 model) is displaying each track twice
once is the correct name e.g. xyz, while the duplicate song shows ._xyz

Any idea why is this happening?
The cf card has been recently formatted and zeroed out completely using the disk utility on Mac.

I am attaching here a image with the behavior

Thanks

Google search answered it....

http://support.apple.com/kb/TA20578 this looks to be caused by copying files from a MAC.

You could user terminal to delete those or utilize a utility like this. If Windows box is not available mount it under Boot Camp, Parallels or Fusion to delete the Resource fork files.

Use terminal in Mac OS X to remove files beginning with ._

Alternatively in terminal you can issue the following command that will remove all files beginning with ._



cd /Volumes/CFCard/ (where CFCard if your cf card volume; you can see it in finder)
find . -name '._*' -exec rm '{}' ';'

Problem solved
