[QUOTE="chscag, post: 973501, member: 46727"] Are you saying that the external hard drive does not mount at all? Go to Utilities, Disk Utility. Can you "see" the external hard drive? Even if the drive is formatted to NTFS, you should be able to "see" it. If you have a new iMac it probably came pre-loaded with Snow Leopard. Snow Leopard has the ability to read and write to NTFS, however, it's not turned on by default. You can download and install the free "[URL="http://ntfsmounter.com/"]ntfsMounter.app[/URL]" which will turn it on for you. Regards. [/QUOTE]
