Projecting images from thumb drive

[amyl60232782]

Working on a mac laptop.  After having edited an image and saved as  jpg  to a thumb drive and then attempting to project from the thumb drive through an Epson digital projector.  The projector often cannot read the jpg.  what's wrong?

Hi,

I'm afraid that I can't answer your question as I'm a windows man and don't have access to a projector.

It might help you get an answer if you give the projector model number.

Could it be a size problem - have you compared the size of the images that work and the ones that don't?

(file size and pixel size)

I have found a partial answer to my problem, but need to go further to actually solve it.  It appears that the Epson projector uses a platform for reading jpg that is different from the one that Mac uses.  i think I'll need to reformat my thumb drives and start over. Thanks for your interest.

Hi,

It probably needs to be formatted as FAT32,
