- Insert the USB flash drive into one of the Mac's USB ports.

- Open the Finder app and the USB flash drive should be listed under Devices on the left side. Click on it and and y will see the drive file system the right hand side. Navigate to wharer y wabnt to go and cop and paste files.

- A Mac can natively read the NTFS file system used for modern PCs. However, y need an app for a Mac to write to a NTFS formatted drive.

- If it does not appear in Finder does it appear in Disk Utility?
