I managed to encode my USB device having installed TrueCrypt on my Mac. I want to use the device with other Windows/OS X computers that may not have a version of TrueCrypt installed.

How do I get my USB to have the traveler disk setup that seems to be easily achievable through Windows, but apparently only there?

A suggestion:

  • Partition the USB stick, one partition to be encrypted, and one not (ensure the 2nd partition is of a format that can be read by target machines).
  • Put the data on the partition you encrypt, encrypt it with TrueCrypt.
  • Put the TrueCrypt installer(s) in the unencrypted partition.

    Thank you for the suggestion. But then I still need to install true crypt on every device through which I want to access the encrypted partition on the USB - don't I? – clouds Mar 18 '14 at 06:19
