Any ideas ???
Thanks Barry Johnston.
Hello Barry,
What size Memory Stick is it?
Is it USB 2 speed bus thumb drive?
Usually thumb flash drives are already formatted asMS-DOS (FAT32)
When the thumb drive is mounted, open Disk Utility in Applications
> Utilities and select the thumb drive in the left hand pane.
At the bottom of the window what format does it claim the drive is?
Cheers,
Ronni
Thanks Ronni. The dialog box that comes up is called Toshiba
TransMemmory Media. The bottom of the window gives Disc Description,
Connection Bus, Connection Type, USB Serial No., Total Capacity,
Write Status, SMART Status, and Partition Scheme. There is no
mention of the format. I did however see the format somewhere else
(can't remember where I saw it now), which said it was formatted as
MS-DOS (FAT32). Where to next!!!!
Thanks Barry
