The next time you copy music to the USB stick you will need to repeat the search and destroy mission to get rid of all those useless dot files. I suggest you try the following:ġ - turn on show hidden files (this might require you force quit/restart finder or log out and back in).Ģ - insert the usb stick and find all those nasty dot files at the beginning of the list and simply move them to trash then empty trash. There is a preference you can set in OSX to prevent the creation of these files on network drives but for some stupid reason this preference does not extend to USB drives. ds_store files which are another long time OSX annoyance. ![]() something.mp3 files which are for OSX preferences and metadata that a FAT filesystem (like a USB stick) doesn't understand.
