Will external HDD PX1267E-1G32 works on Mac?

Does anybody know if the PX1267E-1G32 external HDD will work on Mac OS X? It only states that it works on a PC, but I've never had any problem with other external drives. Thank you.

Hi
Its a 320GB HDD! As far as I know this HDD contains some applications and software which are compatible only with the Windows OS.
But Im not 100% sure.
A long time ago I have tested one and after connecting to the notebook the popup message appeared and I had to enter the standard password which was provided in the user manual.
Maybe this little tool runs only with Win OS.
Why you don't ask your HDD dealer for an test.

  • Toshiba external HDD PX1267E-1G32 not recognized

    I have two hard drives of the same kind (px1267E-1G32) and they were working prefectly, but suddently they both didn't work on my computer anymore. I tried it on other devices but it's not working at all: theres no sound of the engine anymore when I switch it on, but the light of the power supply turns on.
    On the computer there is sometimes the sound that something has plugged in, but then I don't see it neither on the device manager (i think this it is in English- i don't know it for sure because I'm only Austrian ;) ) or on my computer -in german "arbeitsplatz"- and then after a short period of time the sound of Plugging-out chimes
    I've looked it up in other Threads and on other webpages, but nothing has helped me.....
    What shall i do?

    hey Xardas
    i don't see it there (i ment this with device manager...i haven't known the correct name for it :) )
    but the cable worked yesterday (the last time) and i haven't moved it one nanometer ^^ and the engine normally works when you turn it on (even if it's not plugged in the computer...) but there's no sound (you normally hear that) and theres only sometimes a "Klick" and that's it....
    and the problem is only with these two HDD of the same kind...the other ones i have are working on the computer...so i think thats a problem with the HDDs, but how to solve it?

  • Will AIR ac power cord work for Mac Book Pro?

    will AIR ac power cord work for Mac Book Pro? I've lost my MBP cord.

    No. It does not provide sufficient power for a MBP unless you have a 13" model that uses a 60 watt adaptor.

    Why setting the download folder ton an external HDD doesn't work? the downloaded files goes to My Documents (Windows)?

    I did what you said and updated FF, now the download goes to the external HDD that I specified, but now FF bugs, it freezes (not responing) :s
    I reinstalled it but it doesn't fix the problem. I don't know what to do :(

  • Formatting a PC-formatted External Hard Drive to work in Mac OS

    So I have a 300 gig external hard drive formatted for Windows XP with NTFS. I recently got a Macbook Pro and as it stands in Mac OS X the hard drive is read only. I can copy files from the hard drive to my Mac, but I can't edit files on the external HD or copy from my Mac to my external HD. This of course is a problem and so I need to reformat it to work in Mac OS. While I will not be using PCs anymore, if possible I would like for the external HD to be Mac and Windows compatible.
    First things first I have to get all 300 gigs of files off the external HD in order to reformat it. This will be a pain but I have the means to do this. Once I get everything off, how and with what method should I reformat it to work in Mac? Should I use the HFS file system or MS-DOS? Also, what utility in Mac OS lets me reformat it. As I said, I probably won't be hooking up this external HD to Windows anytime soon, but if there is a way to format it in Mac to work with Windows, then fine.
    So what exactly are my options here? I understand that I can format the hard drive in Mac OS with either MS-DOS or FAT32. I just don't know which is better/faster/more reliable in Mac OS, as I'm still a Mac newbie. I don't have files that are over 2 gigs as far as I remember, so I don't think that will be an issue. If it helps, it is mostly media files (videos, music). I've read up online about formatting a drive to work with Mac OS, but there's just so much info I'm getting confused. Thanks.

    Thanks for the suggestions so far.
    So from what people are saying, I can format the drive in Mac OS as FAT32 (aka MS-DOS) and it will work fine between the two operating systems.
    I've been reading more though and it seems that FAT32 drives can not be larger than 130 gigs? Or is that just for partitions.
    I have a 350 gig hard drive and I don't plan on having any partitions. Can I just format the drive as FAT32 in Mac OS and the whole 350 gigs will be available? There's so much conflicting info in articles I've been reading.
    thanks

  • Need External DVD Player that Works on Mac

    My G4 fell (ouch) and the right corner bent and the DVD player doesn't work anymore. At Best Buy I bought a LG DVD player and burner, but my G4 wouldn't recognize it. Then I bought a Pioneer DVD player and burner, but it wouldn't recognize that either (this one has a place to plug in a cord to power it from the wall, but it didn't help).
    Does anyone know of an external DVD player and burner that will work with a Mac G4? They seem to all be well under $100, a lot cheaper than having a Mac repair person open up my G4 and try to fix the internal player and also replace the shell.
    BTW, I guess I could get by without a burner, so if you know of just a player that would work with my G4, I would consider it. Also the LG player says on the box it works with Mac, but then I noticed it needs OS X 10.5 . I suppose it costs over $100 to upgrade, so I don't think it's worth it.

    All PowerBooks starting the G3 "Pismo" dating to Feb 2000 have Firewire Ports. On the 17" G4, the FireWire 400 port is the only labeled "2" in this image of the right edge of the computer:

  • LR Win to Mac - external HDDs formatted for NTFS not Mac, best solution?

    Just moved from windows to Mac and moved the catalogue over. I save all my photos on two backup external HDDs to keep my computer empty but they are formatted for NTFS for Windows which a Mac does not support writing to. So while I can read the files from the catalogue on LR I can't move any new files to them.
    Has anyone else found a workaround or do I need to reformat my HDDs for Mac format?
    Thanks in advance.

    An internet search will turn up lotsa info about this.

  • External HDD formatting for use in Mac OS X and Windows

    I've been gifted with WD (My Passport) 1TB External HDD. On the box it says it requires reformatting for use in Mac OS X.
    I used the earlier discussions. I couldn't decipher the steps details as it was mostly by level 4 above.
    Can any honourable member advice me on how to reformat my new external HDD for use in Mac OS X and Windows (As in office and during meetings I might haveto use wwindows system)
    Also if done with formatting will this be allowing to setup Time Machine back ups.
    Please be sure that I want to use time machine exclusively for backup, some earlier discussions mention that TM can also be used for OS booting etc.,
    I would be greatful to all who will help me in these regard

    Normally the drives are formated as exFAT which could be used by both a Mac and a PC out of the box.  Connect the drive to your computer it should be able to read it.  If not then the system will ask you if you want o erase the hard drive.  Select yes, it will format the drive for use with a Mac only.  This is the required format to use it as a Time Machine backup.  As stated in our post you would like to use this hard drive on both Windows and Mac, you should reformat the hard drive as exFAT in disk utility. 

  • External HDD to be shared with Mac and Windows XP

    I wish to share an external HDD via firewire/USB between an ibook G4 on OSX 10.3.9 and Windows XP. Apart from using FAT32 and having partitions for each OS just in case can anyone share any risks considerations I need to be aware of? I intend on having a generic 320Gb Seagate drive installed into an aluminium box but for some reason Lacie seem to be particularly good with Mac's and I can't ascertain why.
    ibook G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   Acer Windows XP

    There appears to be some misunderstanding about what systems can read or write what hard drives.
    OS X can read and write HPS+ and FAT32 formatted drives, and can read, but not write to NTFS drives. Windows can read and write NTFS and FAT32 drives, and cannot read nor write HPS+ drives. Fresh out of the box the only read/write file sharing is via FAT32 drives.
    There are reasonable methods for expanding this capability.
    (1) Windows can be given the ability to read and write HPS+ drives by installing MacDrive 6 on the Windows machine. As far as I know there is no software available which gives OS X the ability to read and write NTFS drives - - maybe it exists or is under develpment somewhere.
    (2) Both OSX and Windows can read/write files that are on a networked file server regardless of the file system used by that file server. The server hides its underlying file system from clients. Just connecting a network capable HDD to a router is NOT the same thing as having a file server on the network - - the same basic file limitations still exist.

  • My external HDD doesn't works on Macbook Pro ML

    Hi,
    my external HDD works on Windows and Macbook SL, doesn't with Macbook Pro ML.
    I can't see it in Disk Utility.
    Can someone help me or suggest what I have to do?
    Thanks

    Based on what you have said, I do not have an answer for you.  The obvious difference is the OS, but I find it difficult to believe that would be the problem. 
    Do you have another HDD to attach to the MBP?  That seems to be my last arrow in my quiver.
    Ciao.

  • External iSight microphone not working with Mac Pro

    i have researched this extensively to no avail.
    i have an external iSight camera plugged into a pci express firewire port (i got one hoping to solve the problem). the camera works fine except for the mic. it shows up in audio inputs in system preferences but will not produce sound.
    i have troubleshot it by plugging it into a Powerbook G4 and the mic worked perfectly. i have also tried different firewire cables and plugged the iSight into the firewire ports on the machine.
    does anyone know if there are know bugs with leopard and external iSight...seems so weird that it would work on a G4 and not my Mac Pro.
    any insight or help would be greatly appreciated!

    Welcome to  Discussions, bigboi78
    I do not have an iNtel Mac, but external iSight, including its mic, work fine on my 10.5.6 G5 DP tower.
    As I understand, you have checked System Preferences, found external iSight as a Sound > Input device, and selected iSight's Mic. However, adjusting the "Input volume:" slider there while you make some sounds does not effect the fact that the "Input level:" digital VU meter there never flickers regardless of input volume setting.
    I also understand that you used the same Firewire cable with your external iSight on both Macs, so we can eliminate a possible cable problem.
    If my understanding is correct, I can think of two possibilities that may give you a fix before you seek help from an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP.)
    (1) Be sure to test with ALL other Firewire devices disconnected to avoid Possible Hardware or Software Conflicts with iSight. If you have any untested third party iSight or AV software, you might even consider whether that could be causing a conflict.
    (2) Applying the latest Combo Updater often solves strange problems. Do it this way:
     • Download http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_6_ComboUpdate
      but do not install it yet.
     • Disconnect all Firewire devices (if not already done) and restart your Mac
     • Repair permissions
     • Apply the 10.5.6 Combo Updater
     • Immediately after the restart that finishes the update, repair permissions again
     • Reconnect iSight (only) to test whether the problem is solved
     • If so, reconnect your other Firewire devices (if any) one at a time and test again
     • If the problem returns when you have multiple FW devices connected,
      you need to keep the others disconnected while using iSight's mic.
    (3) My only remaining suggestion is to seek help from an AASP.
    We will watch for your status update.

  • Can't get external cd burner to work on mac

    Hello! I am new to owning a macbook pro and still getting used to it.  I recently bought an external cd drive to hook up to the computer.  When I plug it in and if I put a movie in, it will automatically play the movie.  However, when I go into Itunes (Itunes 11) and try and burn a playlist of my music it will not work.  I click burn cd and the external cd drive is listed, but it keeps flashing to put in a blank cd, which I have done.  When I go to disk utility on my computer, it has the name of the drive but I can not click it to verify it.  I have no idea how to get this to work and I keep trying! Any help would be much appreciated!! Thank you!

  • My External HDD is not working on 2 of the 4 USB ports on my iMac. It gets power but it's not reading the HDD.

    Hi,
    I have an iMac Late 2013 model. My external HD is accessible only on 2 out of the 4 USB ports at the back. When you plug the HD in all 4, it gets power, but the HD's icon will only load on the desktop if you plug it in one of the 2 ports mentioned earlier. This is my first mac and I'm thinking that I should be able to plug my external HD to any one of those ports, right?
    If this isn't normal mac behavior, how do it fix it?
    Thanks!

  • External hard drive stopped working on Mac after attempt to connect it to a PC

    I have an external hard drive that is new and has been working beautifully.  It is formatted for a Mac.  Forgetting this, I tried to plug it into a PC. Of course it didn't work, but now when I try to plug it into my Mac it doesn't mount. How can I fix it?

    Try repairing it, per #6 in Using Disk Utility.
