Can ANYONE access external FAT32 with Macbook?

I have been unable to access my external USB hard drive, FAT32 format, since the 10.4.10 update. It is definitely a fault of the update, and many people have this problem being unable to use their external hard drives (ironic as the update was meant to actually make that easier!)

My question is, can anyone at all access any USB FAT32 drive wth their Macbook? I.e is this problem for all drives and all Macbooks, or just some of us? Is there anyone out there who has no problem accessing their FAT32 drive?

(I'm getting desperate as they STILL haven't fixed this terrible problem, and I am thinking maybe changing the enclosure or something might help).

Thanks

My external hard drive works just fine with my Macbook. And yes, it's formatted as FAT32

mine works fine as well

i have three usb hard drives and a few thumb drives. all work just fine and are fat32, except for one old PNY attache 128 mb thumb drive that lights up once and then never mounts. I've reformatted this one on a windows machine and it still doesn't mount to my macbook. not sure why.

Yeah I have a mybook 500GB in fat32 firing up fine. Maybe your drive failed? My simpletech I had a few weeks ago died. That could be it.

I have a FAT32 drive which works fine.

I have both FAT32 and HFS+ external drives with both FW and USB interfaces and they all work fine with 10.4.10 as they did before. You might check the enclosure's manucaturer website to see if there are any know issues with it and OS X.

The same has happened to me. It is definitely a Mac intel duo problem as my fat32 hds all work fine on my G5 iMac (PPC) but not on either of my Macbook or MacBook Pro. All my macs are running 10.4.10 and none of my intel macs are registering my fat32 hds.
So any ideas or should I be talking to Apple direct. Cheers and hi to all as this is my first post.

Also I re formatted my USB HD to MAC OS Extended and nope, it only shows on my G5 iMac, so I am really stumped!
