[QUOTE="TattooedMac, post: 1023072, member: 101749"] WOW that is a lot to go through to set up. My WD My Book was plug and play out of the box. You might want to consider a App like [URL="http://www.bombich.com/"]Carbon Copy Cloner[/URL] or [URL="http://superduper.en.softonic.com/mac"]SuperDuper[/URL] as how you back up. Cant quite help out with your problem as i havnt come across it. As i said my WD Ext came out of the box then i did a backup straight away. What have you formatted the Ext in [B] Mac OS Extended (Journaled)[/B] ?? These 2 apps are a cloner. If you use one it will be a bootable copy of your HD where as TM isnt. TM is just that a back up. Maybe try formatting it again in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and try again ?? You mentioned the WD Anywhere backup ?? What is that ?? Cheers Sorry cant be of anymore assistants to you at this point :) [/QUOTE]
