Other members have said I need to convert the flash drive from FAT32 to EXFAT in order to use it on MAC or Windows. How do I do that?

To reformat an external storage device like your Flash Drive, plug in your Flash Drive to your Mac and open the Disk Utility app on your Mac (Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility). Select your Flash Drive in the Disk Utility sidebar. Click on the Erase button at the top of the screen. Click the Scheme pop-up menu and choose GUID Partition. Click the Format pop-up Menu and choose ExFat. Enter a name. Click Erase. Then click Done when done.
Here's an Apple support article that explains how to reformat an external storage drive. I urge you to read it before beginning.

Be aware that reformatting a disc erases all data that is on it. So first back up any data that you want to keep. Reformat the disc before you export your iMovie to it.
