Starts up fine when the WD is not connected by USB. The software self terminated itself when the problematic WD is connected. I have this problem too with my Western Digital 1TB My Passport for Mac.ĭownloaded Card Data Recovery - did not work. Any ideas here? Can I get my Drive to begin mounting on my G4 again? Any and all answers are appreciated. I do have another identical drive that mounts from all the bus ports on my G4. The Volume name remains the same on my G4 each time I've tried to mount it. I believe My Media Book is the factory name of The Drive before OS formatting. Meanwhile, if I try connecting it back on My Mac, the name of The Drive randomly changes from 931.5 GB WD to 931.5 GB WD My Media Book. This is a music drive and it plays normally on my PC. All files are in tact, and the drive runs normally. So My PC sees The Drive as Mac OS Extended, and mounts it. Now, this is a drive that was formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled) on my G4, so I have to use Mac Drive so my PC will recognize and mount The Drive. I connected it to my PC laptop, and it mounted. Here's where things get a little wierd, but interesting. I don't have another Mac to connect it to, so I don't know if this would work. I've tried different cables, and this doesn't work. I repaired permissions, and this didn't work. Again I tried to remount it, but nothing. I ran disc repairs, and Disc Utility actually told me the drive was successfully repaired. I reattached the cable, tried to mount it, and nothing. I inadvertantly disconnected the firewire cable, which I didn't realize for several hours. I've also tried to mount it via USB, but again, my system sees the drive, but won't mount it. My mac sees the drive, it just won't mount. I connect it via firewire to an Old G4 Sawtooth running OS 10.5.8. I have a 1 TB WD external HD that won't mount. Double-click to open it.Hello everyone!
