Hello everyone.
I switched to the mac about 3 weeks ago, I love it. But I've started to have problems with my external HDD. When I plugged the drive in, OSX didn't see it at all. Disk Utility saw it so I tried to unmount it, Disk Utility said that a program was trying to use the drive so it couldn't eject it. I had nothing running. So I shutdown the computer, when i turned it back on the drive was sitting there on my desktop like nothing was wrong.
Then the computer went to sleep, I woke it up and the drive is gone. I loaded up Disk Utility and it didn't show the drive. I reset the computer, and nothing. Now I can't get the drive to show up anymore.
Please help.
