Is there a quick way to copy the contents of my memory card to my usb flash drive?

At the mo, I'm going file by file but it's going to take quite a while I think at this rate!

Can you not select all and drag and drop?

Select all, copy, and paste it where you want it to go.
My memory card has about 11 GB of data and takes about 20 minutes to copy because the majority of mine are music files.

I figured out how to drag & drop them into the new folder on the memory stick. No idea how to select, copy & paste though! I clicked through the options on the top bar but was a bit wary of clicking anything without knowing what it does because there are loads of photo's of the girls on there.

I have a PC. Not sure if this will help?
I select all the files by doing control down arrow through the list. Control c to copy, control v to paste.

Thanks @WaterBird I will try it in the morning and see, I've given up for the night about 1/3 of the way through :)

Go to the SDCard and select the files or folders you need. To highlight, click on the file icon to make it tick. After that, click on the "Copy" icon. And insert it into the flash drive itself. As you know, all downloaded applications are placed on the internal memory of the device itself by default. And it happens that one toy can take up the entire memory of the device, after which the opportunity to install other applications disappears. Such games necessarily have a cache (a folder with files) and usually take up a lot of space. So, you can transfer the cache to the memory card using FLASH DRIVE RECOVERY www.salvagedata.com/usb-flash-drive-recovery/ , and it won't take much time.
