• How to use a blank disc DVD-R as a USB flash drive?

  Hi all! I'm running Mac OS X 10.9.5 on my MacBook Pro and I was wondering how I could use a blank DVD-R disc as a form of rewriting for documents, music, spreadsheets, etc. ? My mac Let's burn me to the disc, but I can't rewrite to it after that. Help, please!

  They don't work that way. Rewritable means simply you can erase the disc and use it again. You can't write it during normal use of the disk. This, to a USB flash drive.

  To be same rewritable, you can use a DVD - RW, DVD - r not it is not rewritable. You can look for third-party software that allow you to use the drive as a flash drive, but I am not sure that these programs exist. Not much need for it.

• USB Flash drive problems

  I have a USB key that does not work. It's a drive 8 GB flash USB 3.0 which has been formatted and works on my Macbook Pro. The problem comes when I try to use it on a Windows device.

  When I format it under OSX Extended it appears under Windows but is empty.

  When I format it in FAT, under Windows it says that the device must be formatted first

  Either way, when I go to format the device on Windows it says that is only 200 MB space

  Any help would be appreciated.

  If you want to use a USB flash drive on the cross-platform (Win, Linux, OSX) computers you have the next chance:

  -MS-DOS (FAT) format:

  

  If you want to start the drive on a PC or use it with older versions of Windows, you may also need to set the partition to the Master Boot Record (MBR) for full compatibility Windows scheme:

  • Click the drive, and then select the tab "partition".
  • In the "Layout of the score" dropdown, select "1 Partition".
  • Click on 'Options' and choose "Master Boot Record" as the type of partition, then click 'OK' and 'apply '.

  Format discs very quickly, although the total time required will depend on the size of the drive.

  The file system resulting is compatible with all versions of Mac OS X, Windows 95, 98, Windows XP, Vista, 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, is one of the most widely recognized and usable file system formats. What makes FAT ideal of the file system to use for external hard drives or USB flash drives that are designed for use in environments with multiple operating systems.

  ATTENTION! The main drawback to the use of FAT32 is the file size limit, which limits the files on the drive to be 4 GB in size or less. If you need single files to be larger than 4 GB, use exFAT, even if you lose compatibility with older versions of OS X and Windows.

  -Format in NTFS and use a program like Paragon NTFS on your Mac ($ 15/20).

• Can anyone recommend a good for a MacBook Pro USB flash drive?

  I have just implemented a new of the retina end 2015 13 "MacBook Pro and you are looking for a 128 GB + good for fast backups flash drive while looking around a hard drive for use with Time Machine or SuperDuper.

  I'm particularly interested in: (1) A flash drive that is pre-formatted for a platform of Mac OS X for recent models. (Couldn't find it from what I saw on Amazon.)  (2) I believe that the current MacBook Pro USB 3.0, but yet there seems to be a lot of disc memory flash USB 2.0 autour.  Anyone found a good 3.0 flash drive Mac compatible in size 128 - or 200 GB? (3) If you happen to have one, it would be swell to find a drive lean enough to fit comfortably in a port USB of the MacBook, even if something is next to him.

  Thanks - much appreciated suggestions!

  You can format external hard drive for Mac OS X with disk utility.

• WiFi connectivity weird when I plug in the USB Flash drive?

  I found this WiFi connection problem a few days ago, when I plugged a USB Flash drive in "USB port right side' of my MacBook Pro.

  Every time when USB , WiFi won't work - the connection is lost and can not connect to any hotspot even turn the WiFi market.

  I found more weird, ONLY this brand and model key USB could be the abnormal Mac WiFi.

  

  This problem will not happen to another USB port even I put the Flash drive in the left side, USB port, weird isn't?

  Conclusion, this flash drive cannot be used with USB port on the RIGHT side, another USB port works fine. If WiFi don't work.

  All other USB devices I've owned are working very well on the USB ports on the right or left side.

  Could Apple support or any helps me to understand why this happen?

  PS. I had the Apple's Diagnostics and received a message "no problem found".

  PS #2. Right - same USB port side and next to the HDMI port on MacBook Pro 13 "model 2015" (snack for someone who confuse average left or right)

• How can Kenichi Watanabe, I put my music on iTunes on an external USB Flash drive please?

  I have a new USB Flash Drive 32 DB/GB and I want to put all my music in my iTunes top.  I saw instructions on apple, but they do not make sense.  Help, please.  Thank you.

  Hello again...  It depends on the reason for this.  You then use the USB flash drive as internal storage location for its iTunes Media , because iTunes folder that you run lack of space on the disk?  Or maybe what you are doing to use the USB FlashDrive with a car audio system?

  In the previous topic, I think you said that you use a Mac (not a Windows PC) to run iTunes, is that correct?

• SanDisk Extreme USB Flash Drive and SMART failure

  I just got 3 64 GB SanDisk Extreme USB Flash Drives and all three show SMART failures to reassign bad sectors. I struggle to believe that all three could be bad on first use. I use a program on a Mac (SoftRAID(4)) to certify all drives prior to use, including the SD cards and USB keys. I've never seen a failure so far.

  Readers see the successful certification but present a SMART failure.

  What is a disk problem or a SMART question or what?

  Thank you

  Lief

  I agree that it is unlikely to have failed on the first use. Most likely, it is a problem with the SMART attributes. IIRC sandisk can't CHIP for this product so it formats without error, and data can be copied onto the discs with success, I wouldn't worry too much on this subject.

• Cruzer Force USB Flash drive.

  I have a Force Cruzer 32 GB USB flash drive. I installed it in a mac mini ok and safe mode and regular mode works in the mini mac ok but when I put it in a laptop or a PC desk top it works in normal mode. The secure vault does not open even when you type the correct password. It is supposed to work in both PC and Apple Mac. I don't see much interest to have it if it isn't.

  SanDisk don't seem to not know or even respond to my problem in a direct way.

  2-     Then, you install the program, password, etc.. And you will have two files:
  2.1-  SanDiskSecureAccessV2_win, (the application).

  2.7-  If you can move, too, demand (2.1), an entire folder.
  2.8- You can not move the folder/Vault (2.2). you should leave it to the root of the USB drive, because that is where the course 'find' the application (2.1).

  2.9-  There is an option (in the My Vault toolbar), which generates a backup (for SandiskSecureAccess Vault), on your PC.

  Beware 2: Always make backup content, copy the vault, clone the USB flash drive, etc., then save everything in a "safe place."

• A movie can be stored on a usb flash drive?

  I would you ask my camcorder recorded videos, currently stored in Photos, iMovie, and the camcorder on a USB flash drive SD card so I can read in my car on the navigation screen. How can I upload videos to a USB key?

  Yes, you can store movies on your USB.  Probably the easiest way is to drag the movies.  USB drives which are formulated FAT 32, as most of them, are limited to 4 GB in size for any single file.  Would be good to try with a movie just to make sure that your USB will play your

  navigation screen of the car in any way you are intending to do.

• Pavilioin P6710f: Changing Bios then boot from a USB flash drive

  How can I update my bios to enable booting from a USB Flash drive. My bios is American Megatrends 6.07, 04/05/2011 and the only options are CD, hard disk, floppy. Is there a way to change this? To test the Windows 10 repair disk I created, my system froze to the blue screen "choose" keyboard layout. I couldn't use the usb mouse or usb keyboard. As a result, I had to restore my system to windows 7 using my Norton Ghost recovery disk and backups that I had done before downloading windows 10.

  After the opening of the bios and clicking on the hard drive by default, I found that I had a choice, including the USB Flash drive that I have pugged just forward to restart. This answered my question. Thanks to everyone for their contribution. It was not necessary to Flash the bios after all.

  spectrum x 2 unable to recognize a usb flash drive.

  Please advise... thx

  Test the USB drive on another PC or laptop.

  Connect a different usb flash drive to the usb ports on your laptop to verify that the problem is related to this particular usb flash drive.

  Unfortunately, some just usb flashdrives stop working. I had this happen a few times.
