[QUOTE="smallpoxxx, post: 1619326, member: 220197"] [b]ext HD`s[/b] Hi again.... I don`t know what the reason, but connected the extHD today, and it popped-up normally as an icon on the desktop..... a bit confused, and still slightly worried for "the future", as the disk contains important material for me.... ok the 2. backup, but :\ As answers to your questions, it did`nt pop-up in Finder (today it does), and its ticked in Finder/Pref.../General.... to "show ext.HD"..... Did a disk-control in DiskUtility, it reported "all seems ok"...... Might be just one of these days we sometimes run in to, and luckily manage to survive, not knowing how though :o Question: are used to just connecting (usb) the extHD and turning them on.... and of course, pushing them out before disconnecting........ are there other ways ?
