Hi I did try deleting in the dowloads folder but it wouldn't let me do it for some reason. Yes pages is there I just wonder if I can transfer files directly from the flash drive from my pc to the mac and if I can do a mass transfer and how to do it. Sorry if I wasn't clear. Don't know why the downloads aren't deleting.
