Janet B. 0 Posted December 24, 2018 Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 Hi! Made show of all the family photos, want to give as Christmas present tomorrow. Not all have cd drives anymore. I haven't tried yet (I haven't bought the program yet! No time!) but is a thumb drive one of the options, or only cd? And if cd, would I be able to copy the show from there to a thumb drive? (No techie, me!) Thank you! Link to post Share on other sites
N_C_H_josh 0 Posted December 24, 2018 Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 You can export your slideshow to a portable drive. That's one of the options. You can also export it to a CD and move it to a thumb drive. It will just be a video file. Link to post Share on other sites
Janet B. 0 Posted December 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2018 I bought the program and see my choices in exporting are onto to CD's (excluding the various cloud options), not thumb drives. But is it possible and not too complicated to copy from the CD you made to a thumb drive? Even for a big file like the slideshow presumably is, can you just open two Windows Explorers and drag and drop the file? Or could it be that the program lets you select the CD option, but then at Browse, simply select the thumb drive instead of the CD in that menu? Or are the two downloads' programs too different? Thank you, if anyone sees this. Link to post Share on other sites
Janet B. 0 Posted December 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2018 Hi, Josh, thank you for your reply. Did you see my understanding of moving a file from a CD to a thumb drive is just a matter of dragging it, of Copy/Pasting it from the CD to the thumb drive? Is that right? Also, what do you mean, the file would just be a video file. Will the CD user be able to run it as a slideshow, with the music and effects I put in? Do you mean that the user would not be able to further edit the program? Thank you, Merry Christmas! Link to post Share on other sites
N_C_H_josh 0 Posted December 26, 2018 Report Share Posted December 26, 2018 There are many ways to copy files from one drive to another. Any would work with your slideshow. By "it's just a video file", I mean that it can be edited with a video editor, played with any video player, etc. Link to post Share on other sites

I bought a 32GB flash drive, what file type should I be saving it as? MOV or MP4? Link to post Share on other sites
N_C_H_josh 0 Posted September 23, 2019 Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 Whether you're downloading the file from your computer's hard drive to the flash drive or exporting a slideshow from PhotoStage, the file type shouldn't matter. If you're unable to save to the USB drive, then it sounds like you don't have permission to write to that drive. Link to post Share on other sites
