[QUOTE="iPad-hubby, post: 1900790, member: 215424"] New year greetings. I have recently updated my 2017 21.5" iMac to a brand new imac24 with M1 processor. When I add a usb memory drive (I've tried several) the system recognizes it, shows it on the desktop and suddenly I get a message to eject it before disconnecting it, the desktop icon disappears, then returns, another message to eject before removal (which I haven't ).... this can go on until I have 4 or 5 'eject' messages and it's driving me nuts! I also get my WD Passport for mac TM drive being rejected as well, this has worked brilliantly for several years with my previous intel based imac...... 1. Am I doing anything wrong? 2. Are there 'known issues' with this new model? 3. Is it the hardware or is it Monterey? Hopefully someone may have a suggestion! - (I won't get upset if you decide it's 'user error'!!)
