Apple Mac file migration to Onedrive/Sharepoint

Hey Pn1995,

Not a mac user, but i see your pain as onedrive won't fix the files automatically for you. I have heard of a tool on itunes called name mangler. There is way to do it via terminal as well but I would say use it with caution, testing out on a few files, as there is always a risk of ending up changing the file extensions while renaming files. Refer the following article for characters you need to rename :
