[QUOTE="NanoBite, post: 349635, member: 13565"] Sorry to confuse you LuciusHunt, i meant that the ext HD should show up in the left pane of Disc Utility when mounted. Could you please confirm that it does. I also wondered if you originally formatted the ext HD on a PC and was suggesting that you reformat it but do so from your Mac. Go to Disc Utility and format it as MS DOS (on Windows this is called FAT32). Another thing you could try if the ext HD has a FireWire connection, is to connect to it from the Mac using FireWire. If you try the FireWire method and still can't see it, try the SharePoints app again to set up sharing for the ext HD. [/QUOTE]
