Earlier i was tryin to create a new folder on my external hard drive and my macbook spent ages sayin it was busy and not doin much, i went to force quit to find that finder wasnt respondin so i relaunched that and then lost all my icons on my desktop. i then tried to shut down the computer so i could remove the hard drive and then reboot, i managed this but now when i connect the hard drive it does not show up on the desktop and i cant access it, i have tried it on a windows machine and i can get into it but it wont happen on my mac....any ideas?
disk utility says there is an 'error:The underlying task reported failure on exit'
the log says Unable to read directory (Input/output error)
and log also says is now mounted however bak in utility it continues to say it is not mounted.
