[QUOTE="krs, post: 1812811, member: 67742"] Yes, I'm keeping this in mind. That's why I tried it on the 2011 MBp to eliminate that possibility. I also tried it on the 2011 MBp using an SD/USB adapter - same problem I then took it back to the Mini, the PPT files still open fine on it, but some of the Word files have difficulty opening now - I either get the MS WordWindow to convert the file or MS Word opens but the page is blank. I tried am .mp3 file on the 2011 MBp, it plays fine. I think the bottom line is that my 128 GB microSD card is garbage. I liked the idea of being able to just send this in an envelope with customs papers, packaging etc. Theoretically, this should work, right? I don't understand what you mean by that. You mean using my home network to access the file that's on the hard drive plugged into the Mini? What I could do which I have not tried yet is to just plug the hard drive with the files on it (that is plugged into the Mini now) and plug it into the 2017. But we have previously transferred files using smaller, 32GB Flash drives and that all worked fine. BTW - Is there any way I can test the 128GB microSD card on a Mac? [/QUOTE]
