I've searched through other threads in the forum, but haven't been able to find the help I need.
I have, and have used with no problem, a WD external hard drive. However, my MacBook is not recognizing the HD at all. Nothing is showing up on the desktop, in Finder, nor in the Disk Utility.
The HD itself is getting power, but nothing is recognized by the MacBook. I have a 6 pin firewire that is running from the HD to the MacBook. I have switched firewire ports on the HD and nothing seems to help.
When I run the software it gives me a "Disconnected" message and the icon for the external HD is showing a red exclamation point.
Anything come to mind?
Thank you for your help.
