    transferring a movie to a flash drive


    Hi. I have a movie I converted to an MP4 file and want to move it to a USB flash drive. The file is a little over 5gb and the drive is 32mb. I get a message that the file is too large for the destination which is not possible. Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Thank you.

    :)

    Hi Todd,

    One way on how to save and move files to a flash drive is by using the File Explorer in Windows 10. To assist you with your concern, to save your movie file to a flash drive, we suggest that you follow these steps:

    • Connect your USB flash drive to your PC.
    • Navigate to the folder or location where you save your movie files.
    • Right-click on the movie file and select
      Copy
      .
    • Right-click on the Start menu, and select
      File Explorer.
    • On the left-pane, double-click on This PC.
    • Double-click on the drive letter that correspond to your USB flash drive.
    • Right-click and select Paste.

    5800 and flash

    It seems the flash lite player is in fact installed. Flash movies, that I transfer to the phone open in the flash player. Videos on Youtube mobile open in the RealPlayer application. However, videos integrated to websites, such as the full version of YouTube
    have not been working.

    transferring a movie to a flash drive

    I should google first - I just had to reformat the drive in NTFS format.

    Or Ex-fat.

    Depends where you want to use it. My TV will not read NTFS.

    Huh? Was the problem stated correctly? There's no way a 5GB movie will fit on a 32MB flash drive. Did you mean to say it was a 32GB drive?
