Hi everyone, i just bought a macbook pro, last apple i owned was a performa back in the day
anyway, i have an external hard drive that i have been using with a windows based pc, i plugged it into my mac and tried to put files in the hd, but it wouldn't work so i attempted to format it using disc utility and it went all the way and then it failed
now my hard drive wont open on my pc, and when i plug it in and turn it on, it shows a, initialize, erase, or ignore screen and when i try to do anything with it, it states, a input/output error and i can't do anything with it
will someone please help me out here and tell me how i can format this drive accordingly and will be able to place any files that i would like to in it
Much appreciated!
