I'm having problems copying files to my flash drives under Mountain Lion. It's telling me there is no space, when there is plenty. One option it gave me was to reformat the flash drive. I don't want to do that, because then I'll have trouble having Windows computers read it. Any suggestions?
Mac mini Server (Mid 2011), OS X Mountain Lion, 2.0 ghz, Quad Core i7, 8 gbs RAM
What format are they now?
Take a look at this. http://www.tuaw.com/2011/09/19/mac-101-format-choices-for-usb-flash-drives/
It was FAT32, but I needed to copy something larger than 4gbs. The article by hpr3 helped explain why it wouldn't let me copy to it. Although, I also tried a 512MB flash drive and I had 125mbs free on it and it wouldn't let me copy a 1mb file. It also said I didn't have enough space on the flash drive. That was in FAT32 as well.
