[QUOTE="Dogbreath, post: 1561585, member: 171258"] @Barbara Jay . . . I wouldn't hesitate to say that 99+ percent of USB flash drives are formatted FAT-32 right off the shelf/blister pack. Again, please keep in mind the largest single file it will store is 4GB. That should be no problem with the patterns you deal with. Setting up a folder on the flash drive is simple and, as mentioned, you can store the online receipt, pdf manual, instructions, template/pattern, and any code or product key for future reference to downloads/updates. And as far as any type of file storage, redundancy is the key word. Anything of importance should be backed up in more than one place and/or device. All storage devices i.e. flash drives, ext hdd, internal hdd, CD/DVD's can and will fail. Apple offers an excellent array of Office type applications...my advice to you is to invest in MS Office just to ensure compatibility between various computers and operating systems. Maybe something I have said here will help. [/QUOTE]
