When you are saving the file, goto Save-As, and there is a drop down menu below file name that allows you to set the file-type. There will be an option for back-compatibility, try saving it as an older.. say... office95 type file, and for sure the mac compatibility will be better. Or rather, save it as a file type that you know the mac version is compatible with.
good luck, ~Kyle
