[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1918665, member: 396914"] Welcome, Insomniac0007. Just to let you know, everybody can see every post in a thread, so no need to repeat. As for age and moving on, I'm almost 77, and I find it easier to move along and keep up with the times than to try to stand still and try makeshift work arounds. lifeisabeach gave you lots of good advice (for a youngster :) ). A lot of your observations are true, but the impacts are not that large, frankly. Secure Erase free space on a thumb drive? Why? What's the need for that? Thumb drives are so cheap that if you are seriously worried about somebody bothering to try to recover what you erased on it at some point, just destroy the thing and make a new one. That's more secure that any secure erase! And if you don't want to do that, just write some innocuous file to fill up the space, then delete that file. Repeat a couple of times and the empty space where whatever you were worried about is now filled up with the more recently deleted files. Basically, that's what Secure Erase does anyway. As for gif files, they play in Safari just fine. I don't have a camera any more. I use my iPhone for images, videos, etc. Better than any camera I ever owned. So, I can't help with the problem of putting a video back into a camera. Why would anybody want to do that, anyway? Makes no sense to me. Different strokes for different folks, I guess. [/QUOTE]
