- You need a 2nd USB-stick inserted in a USB slot before you begin.
- A USB-stick is required to be inserted for this to work.

- Export in reverse
- click on a file from the list on the 2nd USB that pops up when you click on it's icon in the left bottom corner.
- Hold Down the mouse button as you drag the file 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 the (f3) Home Screen and click on the journal the new item will be in the journal.
- If the file was an activity.xo file. It will be automatically installed.

Notes
- How to take Screen Shots on a Mac Useful for sugar applications running in VirtualBox for OSX
- Comment: An important use case for the Keep button. How do we store just the image, without the software state? Some Activities, including Turtle Art, have a button for this purpose.
