my laptop between creation and editing.

Pls help me understand how to do this.Thanks very much!

That sounds like it might be a permissions issue.  Can you write to 
USB from other apps?



Or it could be that the file system caches data and it hasn't been 
written to the flash drive before it is removed. Was the correct 
removal/dismount process followed for  you OS?
