Copying images to a USB stick

[johne53]

Let's say I take some photos with the Flip 3's camera and they appear in my Gallery folder. If I now mount a USB memory stick, how do I transfer the photos to the memory stick? I've tried using Copy and Copy to clipboard but whenever i then view the contents of the memory stick there's never any option to paste items to it. Up to now I've managed to transfer them - but it always seems to happen by accident. I can't find a repeatable way of transferring items from My Gallery folder to a USB stick 😞

@johne53 Hello, from the Gallery it will not give you the option to copy and paste,or Move- to the external USB memory.
To do so, go to Internal memory/DCIM/Camera and from this directory you can copy files and paste them on the USB.

@johne53 You could open the Files app in split screen mode - one for DIM/Camera folder as @Ventor @ and the other for your USB stick folder. This would make the copying easier.

Use Dropbox, it will sync pictures from your phone to pc. You can then just drag and drop to the usb stick.

Thanks @Ventor but where do I find Internal memory/DCIM/Camera? I've tried under Settings (including a search for DCIM) but I couldn't find anything.

Dropbox would be good except it's not useable on my PC here (complicated reasons...)

And @Neo001 - split screen mode is how I usually manage to achieve it but it doesn't always work 😞

@johne53 hello, open the app of your phone- the file explorer/My files/, and in Internal memory, you will find the DCIM/Camera folder.
