lshaeffer Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I am trying to save JPEGs onto a flash drive that is brand new 2G. It saved some pictures and stopped saying it wasn't enough capacity. I continued on another flash drive and it stopped again saying the same thing. Screen attached Bad drives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I'm going to move this into Brian's section, because he is much more qualified to help with this. I wanted to ask, though, have you formatted the flash drive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lshaeffer Posted August 11, 2016 Author Share Posted August 11, 2016 Yes that's my mistake. Thank you! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 It needs to be FAT32. You formatted it incorrectly. FAT16 was used in the late 1980's and early 1990's, before the era of Windows 95. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Most Thumbdrives are already formatted to FAT32, which the Mac OS can read and write to. You shouldn't have formatted it, that's where your problem originated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
