 I have tried maybe 10 times to download and install Tor to a USB drive, as
 I have been told that it the safest way to use Tor when travelling. I can
 download the package (and have done so from both the Tor project site and
 by emailing gettor.. I use Mac OSX.

 I can download the dmg package, but on OSX it only wants me to drag the
 icon to the App folder on the main computer. There doesn't seem to be any
 way to install it to the USB. I've tried dragging the icon to the USB
 folder but it says 'Your Tor file seems to be damaged, put it in the bin.'

 I've read all the troubleshooting and FAQ but none of them advise on this.
 Can anyone help?

 Thanks
 Tellura
