    Files Not Copying to USB

    USB is formatted FAT32.

    I can copy / paste folders to USB but the folders are empty.

    I can copy / paste individual files.

    Fixed it. Another one of those "better lucky than good" deals.

    Folders would move over but would be empty.

    When I would copy one particular folder, it contained an empty subfolder. During the paste to the USB an error msg would pop up stating that folder couldn't be moved. I would click "ok" and march on. Went through that a few times.

    Deleted the empty folder and that fixed the problem. Don't know if the folder was corrupted or what. The naming scheme of the folder was consistent with a name I would use. However, I have noticed in the past under circumstances I don't recall, when downloading photos from the internet (maybe??), a folder would be automatically generated apart from the files. I normally either rename that folder or delete and create a new folder if required.
