[QUOTE="James, post: 89473, member: 7582"] Your problem is you have an untitled volume, give the volume a name. The Mac will not read the drive if it does not have a name. A drive formatted in fat 32 can be both read and written to by the Mac and a windows machine, but Mac requires a volume name... or at least that is how it worked on my external...got the same error message you showed and as soon as i gave the volume a name it worked...
