2.Next, unplug the TravelDrive from its USB port once the icon is not visible on your Mac OS Desktop.

C. USING THE TRAVELDRIVE FEATURES

When the blue LED is lighted, the TravelDrive is powered and recognized by your computer. When the LED is flashing, that means that data are being transferred to or from your drive. Always wait until the LED stops flashing before removing the drive. Removing the drive while the LED is flashing risks corrupting the data files and losing access to any other files on the drive.

2.Lanyard Carrying Cable

To attach your lanyard to your TravelDrive, remove the portion of the lanyard with the small thin nylon cable. Slide the small nylon loop thru the end of the drive where the opening appears and insert the connector end thru the middle of the nylon loop.
