MessageHi Dave, I know so little about the technology, thought it best to ask you guys on this list. Today I've been following the advice from Jim Jackson and pressing windows key and B, hearing drive names in the system tray and hearing Jaws say safe to remove, it's that security that puts my mind at rest.

As long as the file is copied and/or the application is completed, there's no problem. Your friend probably pulled one out during a file copy and messed it up.

I've been told that before removing a memory stick from the USB, you must close it down or something like that to protect it. I'm moving MP3 files from one computer to another and switching off each computer every time before removing the memory stick. How do I remove the memory stick without damaging it whilst still leaving the computers on?
