Hi everyone,
I got some problems with an external Drive I own, when I plug it in my MacBook, the only thing that happen is a message appearing on my screen, telling that "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer." and it gives me three possible options, "initialize..." "ignore" or "eject" I know, that this Hard Drive is perfectly readable on other laptops with Ubuntu, or Windows, but it can't be read here, if I press "ignore" nothing will happen and if I press "initialize" it will open the disk utility window, and there is not much I can do there to fix this problem but to format the Hard Drive, which I don't want because there are some very important files on it, how can I read this Hard Drive? can anyone help me please?
Thanks for your time.
