External Drive is no longer recognized by Macbook
I have this external drive....
http://www.amazon.com/Western-Digital-Passport-Essential-WDME2500TN/dp/B0012GK3M Q/ref=sr11?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1280159206&sr=1-1
It is about 60% full of music/pictures/documents that are NOT on my Macbook, therefore I use it regularly.
Every once in a while, I accidentally remove it without properly ejecting first. But I guess I did it one too many times because now the computer will not recognize it at all.
To insure that the drive wasn't corrupt, I plugged it into a PC. It worked fine. The files are all there and were completely accessible. But as soon as I plugged it back into the Mac, it won't show up.
When I try a Disk Utilities repair, I get the following message:::::
FIRST AID FAILED
Disk Utility stopped repairing “My Passport” because the following error was encountered:
The underlying task reported failure on exit
Verify and Repair disk “My Passport”
** /dev/disk1s1
** Phase 1 - Read FAT
** Phase 2 - Check Cluster Chains
** Phase 3 - Checking Directories
Unable to read directory (Input/output error)
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
1 non HFS volume checked
1 volume could not be repaired because of an error
I have NO $$$, so telling me to purchase a $30-100 program will not help me AT ALL. I'm looking for solutions that will not effect my wallet, even if they take all day to complete.
What can I do????????
Ok. Just to set one part straight- I doubt the problem came from unplugging your drive without ejecting. This usually isn't a problem unless files are writing or in use when you do it, but ejecting is a safe way to avoid issues.
Try force-mounting the drive in terminal by using the following commands
*mkdir /Volumes/yourdrivename*
this command should give you the location of the drive on your computer. (It should be something like disk2 or disk1s3) Then type the location into:
*mount /dev/yourdrivelocation*
Whether or not this works, follow up this step by ejecting the drive and unplugging and plugging it back in. This worked for me when I was having this issue.
Also- are you able to backup and reformat the drive? This would be a good thing to try if other attempts have failed.

Greetings. I could use some advice here.
I bought a WD external hard drive to back-up some files on my old iMac, but I reformatted it & set it up on my new iMac.
After I backed up the files I wanted, I hooked the external drive to the new iMac, but now the new iMac doesn't recognize that external drive.
What should I do?
I also have a flash drive that neither iMac will recognize. Similar issue or no?
Would appreciate any adice I can get on these situations.
Thanks for you time and attention.You need to deal with your vendor or AppleCare Customer Relations. We can't tell you what to do nor what is possible.
It's unfortunate you have had these problems, but we really cannot resolve them for you. We do not represent Apple nor can we tell you what to do other than attempt to resolve the issue either with your vendor or through Customer Relations. -
Firewire external mobil disk hard drive is no longer recognized
After last system update, my firewire external mobil disk hard drive is no longer recognized. Any solutions?
Why does MacOS go backwards... gets worse over time?Thought you could use this info about getting FireWire to work! I have had no trouble with any update Apple puts out (the Combo update is what I normally choose). Are you running 9.2 like your specs. say? You are in the Tiger forum, so I'll assume you haven't updated your Macs specs.
First, you should always Repair Permissions in Disk Utility before and after any update; I would do that now. If you installed your update with FireWire plugged in, your Mac may not recognize it anymore.
Try resetting your FireWire ports by disconnecting all FW devices, shut down your Mac and unplug it from AC power (wall socket) for 30 minutes. plug it back in and try FW.
If that did'nt work, download the combo update from this site (yours may be corrupt), not Software Update, disconnect all firewire + USB devices except keyboard + mouse, Repair Permissions, re-install update, Repair Permissions again + try. Yours may be the 10.4.5 Combo update. Others reading, download the Combo that applies to your system.
If that still did'nt get it Zap the PRAM. While restarting Mac hold down the following key combo Command-Option-P-R. Keep holding those keys down till you hear the second start-up chime, then release.
For those of you with Macs that are not PowerBooks or iBooks, a bad internal battery can cause FireWire to not be recognized, so make sure it's good!
Good Luck!
Cheers!

What kind of external drive should I get for my macbook pro for backups etc
what kind of external drive should I get for my macbook pro for backups and storage
Hi, i have a Mercury Elite-AL Pro from OWC, www.otherworldcomputung.com
this is the one;
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/MEAQ7S1TB32M/
have had this for over two years, moved around a lot with the drive, ( to date ) no problems, they have good after sales support; give them a call if you need info.
There are a lot of drives out there as others here will let you know, there are good NAME drives but they also fail, POPULAR drives also fail, select the one you are happy with for your system and how you plan to use.
i suggest if $ is not a problem get a big drive you will find someting to put on it and is better.
hope this helps. -
Following months of straightforward backing-up (using Time Machine) my 1TB G-Technology External Drive no longer appears on my screen when powered up and connected to my machine. I have read that this can happen after updates are downloaded onto the MacBook Pro (or indeed any other Mac product) but with update downloads being inevitable this cannot be avoided. Apple tentatively admit this is a problem but offer no solution that I can find! Even more annoyingly the drive itself is designed for use with Mac products and was the simplest plug'n play device I have ever used. Ideas please?
AB@isisContact the manufacturer for their trouble shooting support. In any case when updating the OS unmount and unplug external hardrives.

WD Smartware, external hard drive back up not recognized by Macbook Pro
I use WD external hard drive as back up for my Macbook Pro using WD Smartware. All software is upto date but when I plug in my external hard drive it is now not recognised by my Mac. It does not appear in Finder or Disk Utility but it does show up in System Profiler. It has worked fine until now. I have changed the UCB cables multiple times, the external WD hard drive has its own power suppy and other external hard drives work in the same usb port. When I plug the external drive into a PC it is recognised but obviously will not let me use it. When I go to access via the PC it prompts me for the password to open the drive, however when I plug into my Mac, when I click on 'unlock drive' its says that the drive is not locked. The WD Smartware software runs to check the files on my Mac but after categorising them the 'back up' option is not highlighted and it will not access the external WD drive.
How can I access the WD external drive ? System Profiler data is below. Many thanks, apologies for any ignorance and thanks in anticipation of any help !

To be a parrot,.......REMOVE the WD garbageware.

Remove ANY and ALL WD software products. -
External drive and iPod not recognized
I have a MacBook and had been using an external drive with it that is no longer recognized when i plug it in. i can't find it in the Finder, it doesn't show up on the desktop, but it lights up as if it's working. I also have an older iPod Nano (2nd gen I believe) which has the same problem... i can charge it but can't access it otherwise. both used to work but stopped working at the same time. i have a 2nd external drive which works fine, though at one point it stopped working and i had to play around with time machine to get it back. what's going on? how do i access my drives? why would they work fine and suddenly not be recognized? i haven't done anything that would have harmed the data. the iPod works fine on its own. this is very frustrating.
Well, my best advice would be to first check on another computer, your Macbook could be fine and you are simply in possession of a faulty hard drive, but because the iPod too isn't working when connected, then the USB drivers may have become corrupt.
Worst case scenario I hate to say, is that your USB hardware is faulty but I don't think that is the case.
What you can do if it is just the drivers is perform a re-install of Mac OS X, but I can't remember if there is a way to install it without losing all the data on your computer. This should however fix all the driver issues. I would recommend a clean install.
Before you do anything however, how does your Mac perform with other USB devices? E.g. your mouse, flash drive, or anything else you can test? Maybe you just have 2 dysfunctional devices which is possible. Preferably get something you can read and write to such as a flash drive or another external HD -
External Drives are not being recognized
Why is my Brand New Macbook Pro not recognizing any external drives? Neither Flash nor external?
CClinton, thank you very much. I did as you suggested, with one day to spare! Took it to the Genius Bar, although the computer passed spec tests, the computer did present external drive issues, some sort of lag-time and he said the computer was not storing things properly. Apple replaced the computer with no problem. The replacement computer is running much better, it is almost inexplicable....but ther is a noticeable difference somehow. The computer is faster and more responsive, and the battery does not poop out as quickly.
Thanks again....

OS X Mavericks (10.9)- Ejecting external drives taking too long
So ever since I upgraded from 10.8.5 to the 10.9 GM any external hard disk or flash drive take too long to eject (~10 s). I'm sure it's not the drives because I've tested the same one on different Mac mini on 10.9 but it ejects within a second or two. I've tried USB 2.0, 3.0 and Thunderbolt drives. Is anyone having this issue and does anyone know how to fix it? I would rather avoid having to do a clean install. I'm using a mid 2012 MBA.

New problem...SSD drive is no longer recognized
OK, I was having the memory issues so I went out and bought new memory that is supposed to be compatible (GSKILL 2x4 MB 1333 DDR3), and now I have a brand new problem. My SSD is no longer recognized, so I can't boot my OS. I've tried swapping ports, swapping cables, cleared CMOS...I even put the WINDOWS 7 Disc in to see if it would find the drive in the install screen, but it says no hard drive found.
Anybody know the issue I may be having now?I had a similar issue, my BIOS wouldnt recognize my Intel X25 after a blue screen in AHCI mode.
In the BIOS I had to switch the controller type to Standard IDE. This made the drive visible again but to make it operable under AHCI, I had to use a Hex Editor from a DOS Boot Disk, and manually erase the first few sectors of the drive.
Then I could switch the controller back to AHCI in the BIOS and repartition/reinstall Windows - Until the next blue screen .
Obviously, doing this erases the MBR, allocation tables and partition table, and therefore makes ALL data on the drive inaccessible. -
My DVD drive is no longer recognized.
For the past few months my dvd drive would not open when I used the eject disk function. A few times I went into the startup menu and ejected the disk manually. Now the dvd drive is not even recognized by the computer. This dvd drive is the original and my G5 is at least 5-6 years old. Should I replace the dvd drive or is this a software issue?
Hi birdman1999, and a warm welcome to the forums!
It is very likely it is gone, I've not had an Optical in the last 8 years that lasted that long myself.
Does it not show up even in Disk Utility or System Profiler?
Does it boot off the Install Disc if inserted and holding the c key at bootup?
Here's some options for replacement...

External USB storage no longer recognized by kernel [SOLVED]
If I plug in an external USB thumb drive, my system no longer sees it.
-gdisk and fdisk do not see it
-gparted cannot see it
-thunar cannot see it
I have a USB mouse and keyboard that work just fine. Here is my dmesg. You can see in the last line that something detected me plugging in the USB thumb drive, but that's it. Is this something with udev or ?
[ 110.596683] usb 1-3: new high-speed USB device number 4 using ehci_hcd
I found this thread but my problem is different from the op's.
I run the linux-ck package from the AUR but as a sanity check, installed the ARCH kernel package and this problem exists under both:
$ uname -r
3.2.6-2-ARCH
Last edited by graysky (2012-02-19 00:44:26)I know this thread is marked solved, but I have the exact same problem - I just installed the linux-ck package from the AUR (running linux-ck version 3.2.11-1), alongwith the nvidia-ck package. The kernel was compiled with the localmodcfg and BFQ options enabled in the pkgbuild. Now when I plug in an external drive, dmesg detects it, but no device nodes are created under /dev.
There is nothing wrong with the drives (happens with multiple drives) - and they are mounting fine under the stock kernel. lsusb also shows the drive present. I thought this might be an issue with needing to rebuild initramfs using mkinitcpio, but the available hooks seem to include all the usual ones from the stock kernel, nor does the wiki article mention needing to do such a thing. Any ideas?
EDIT: I didn't notice in the OP that the problem persisted with both the -ck kernel and the stock kernel. In my case, it only persists with the -ck kernel - and this happens on two different computers.

Wow, this is frustrating. I'm really starting to regret purchasing a Mac.
I've already had a number of problems trying to get my OWC Mercury Elite Pro external drive to work correctly - but I really don't think that the problems are from the drive. Once I finally get back to the files on it - the files seem fine. It's getting the MBP and Time Machine to use the drive correctly.
I already gave up using the eSATA Express Card that I was hoping to use with this drive. It was very unstable - TM wouldn't have much to do with it.
Now I've been using the drive via FW800 with good results... until today. I hadn't used the MBP for a couple days. When I woke it up, the drive (2 partitions) was no longer mounted. I turned it off/on, unplugged/replugged and eventually got it mounted again. However, Time Machine would fail trying to back it up, giving a familiar error message - something about not being able to create the backup directory.
I tried to eject it, but the Mac said that it was in use. No programs were running.
I waited.
I tried to turn off TM. Still said the drive was in use and couldn't be ejected.
So I restarted my MBP.
Now the drive doesn't show up AT ALL. I try turning the drive off, plugging in different cables, USB, ... nothing. Disk Utility doesn't see it as a unmounted drive or anything.
This is serious. A few crashes happen now and again... but consistently loosing data like this is unacceptable.
Does anyone know how I could trick this thing into reading my drive again?This all sounds worrisome. You might want to entrust your data to a different drive. This one may be working intermittently. S.M.A.R.T. status is not supported on an external drive, so there is no way to check that.
Maybe the drive was getting hot, and being off for several hours allowed it to cool off. But I would worry about it. Drives can work intermittently before failing.
If you are really running 10.5.5, you should have no problem changing the disk in Time Machine. If you are running 10.5.6, you might run into a weird permissions problem, which has been discussed in the Time Machine forum.
Good luck! -
My firewire connection to the hard drive is no longer recognized
My external hard drive with firewire cable connection to the imac has been working fine for months. Suddenly got error message that firewire devices were not being recognized by the computer. I tried poweriing dowm computer and external drive and resetting PRAM but no response. Any suggestions welcome
If you look at your >SystemProfiler (option key)>Hardware>Firewire.
If Firewire is being recognized ie
FireWire Bus:
Maximum Speed: Up to 800 Mb/sec
I would suspect the ext. HD or the cable.
Rebooting will reset the Firewire port.
