As a caveat, it should be noted that if the flash drive does not appear on the

items) -- and then, when I intreract with empty table on my
Hi, Esther and others: thanks so much for your responses. I am now able to
find the drive, and what I want to do is copy music files to it. However, I
cannot figure out how to do this. I selected several files, copied them, then
interacted with the empty table for the centon drive. I hit
Hi Christine:
I don't believe you can copy more than one at a t ime, unless they're in a
folder. The other thing to keep in mind is you may need to interact in order
to paste. VO should be telling you both when it copies, and when it is
pasting, it should say, paste, copying from ...
I can't select a bunch of files from my music folder at a time and copy them to
the drive? What a pain! I will try one at a time and sww if that works. I

the drive has a volume label or not. You open this with command-o, and then
can copy files to it by, for instance, opening a
