[QUOTE="McLov, post: 1016034, member: 147195"] Hi One question. Bought a new Macbook pro and copied the files from my previous mac using the FireWire. After some days I wanted to format my external hard drive which I've used on my old mac for time machine. The problem is that my new mac is not recognizing my external HD. There is not even the HD icon appearing on the desktop. Can anyone tell me why this might be happening? I've tried the HD on a PC just to see if it works and it does. Is just the MacBook which is not recognizing it. thanks [/QUOTE]
