I have mov and quicktime movie files on my old iomega exernal hard drive that is on my old Mac g5 computer. I need to copy them to a flash drive to transfer to a brand new portable hard drive that my son will use on his windows 7 pc. The files won't transfer from the iomega to the flash drive. After the process moves forward for a long time, I get a message that says an unexpected error occurred. Each movie file is about 11 gb. I am using an imation 32 gb flash drive that already has some stuff from my pc on it but there is plenty of space to put a movie on to transfer to the new external hard drive on the pc one at a time. I am not having trouble copying smaller files, like documents and music to the flash drive. What do I need to do to get these large files to transfer?
