[QUOTE="Doug b, post: 716262, member: 59143"] I think I've got it ! But it's not the way I thought it would work. Have to jet to work, but will post later with what I did. Well, basically I had to go into the main Mac HD, then there is the APEx in the shared column on the left, I then had to enter the password for the APEx and I was in. This was after reformatting and partitioning the drive however. So I'll try it later with the other drive which is FAT 32 to see if that makes a difference. Still a hassle though, if you asked me, but at least I know it works now. Whew ! Doug Edit: i couldn't wait ! And... it works ! So it had NOTHING to do with formatting, GUID or anything. I'm surprised that the tech support people don't know enough to ask questions which would point to something as simple as what I did ? Really makes me wary of what I'm paying for, tech support wise. Seems more like a crap shoot if you asked me. [/QUOTE]
