-==Summary==
+== Safely remove a USB drive ==
-*A brief synopsis of the process:
-)You need a 2nd USB-stick inserted in a USB slot before you begin.
-)Click on the journal icon under the XO Avitar in f3 (Home) screen.
-)move the mouse cursor to the center of the screen.
-)In the left bottom of the sugar screen will be 2 USB icons
-   - Journal
-   - 2nd USB
-)click on the file in the journal listing that pops up when you click on the icon in the left bottom corner;
- and hold down the mouse as you drag the entry to the 2nd USB Icon next to it on the bottom left  corner.
-) release the mouse button when you are over the 2nd USB Icon and a + will appear.
- This is a '''Drag-Drop''' export to the 2nd USB-stick
-*Import to Sugar Journal is done just the opposite way:
-) click on a picture or .xo file on the 2nd USB that pops up when you click on the icon in the left bottom corner.
-) drag it with the mouse to the journal icon in the bottom left corner. A + will appear as it is added to the journal.
-*When you go to (f3) Home  Screen and click on the journal the new item will be in the journal.
-:Plus if it was an activity.xo file It will be installed.
-*(The drag-drop process in sugar does a hidden conversion of the journal files to ones that will work on a USB. It seems to be the only way to do an import/export in Sugar.)
