If you need to delete files off a flash drive on a Mac, there are a few different ways to go about it. The easiest way is to use the Finder. Open the Finder and select the flash drive in question. Click on the File menu and select Get Info. In the “Info” window, click on the “File System” tab. Under “Volume Contents”, click on the “Delete Files” button. Select all of the files you want to delete and click on the “Delete” button. If you don’t have access to the Finder, you can also use Terminal. Open Terminal and type sudo rm -rf /Volumes//. For example, if your flash drive is named “Flash Drive”, type sudo rm -rf /Volumes/Flash Drive/filename. ..
