With the USB stick connected to your MBP and open use the key combination of Shift+Command+Period to make hidden files visible. Look for the hidden image files on the stick and see if they begin with a period. If they do then they won't show in the Finder normally


If they do have a period at the beginning of the file name find how how they were named so you can remove the period. That's not normal procedure on a Mac.
