FAT 32 formatting

I have recently purchase an OLED TV


Tried to view my photos stored on G-Drive


The OLED TV cannot open the files as they are not formatted in FAT file


I do not wish to lose the files in the G-Drive


How do I format a new USB drive in the FAT 32 ?


I use Mac iOS


Thanks

Copy the files to another drive, choose Disk Utility from the Utilities menu, and erase it as MS-DOS. If desired, you can format the second drive as MS-DOS instead of the one with the photos.
