I am been searching online for an answer to this question, so please help me as it is a fairly simple, straightforward situation. I currently have a My Book external Hard Drive and use it to back up files from my PC. Now if I go out and buy a MAC, will I have problems transferring files from external HD into the new MAC?

Yes and No... Apple file formats are not readable in a PC and vice versa except for file formats specifically made to work in both, such as Microsoft Office files (doc, xls, ppt, etc....) or a generic file type such as pdf, jpg, tif, gif, etc. So if its that type then YES.. otherwise No...
