    Exclamation Pic can ONLY act as Slave and NOT as Master (Host)!

    1st of all ,Happy New year!

    Now to your question:

    You have to know that pic can be used only as 'slave' controller and not as 'master' so i is NOT possible to access devices 'from' the pic like usb sticks etc.
    USB is a "master-slave" bus with exactly one master and multiple slaves.
    The slaves are called peripherals. The master is called a host. Only the
    host can initiate USB transfers; the peripherals (PIC) always respond, never
    initiate!
