- You should then a) see it mount on the desktop, and b) automatically get a prompt to use the drive for Time Machine - if not, you can go into the Time Machine menu (top right of the screen), go to TM Preferences, and select it.
- Disconnect all other external drives from the computer except one My Book or My Passport. Download WDFirmwareUpdater.zip to your desktop. Extract the file using an extraction utility. Once extracted, double-click on the file named WDFirmwareUpdater.dmg; Open the DMG from the Desktop and double-click on the WD Firmware Updater application.
Mybook won't mount My Mybook worked fine then one day decided not to anymore. I plugged it into my macbookpro and the light on the mybook started FLASHING but didn't mount. So i tried it on the iMac, the same result. Then i randomly tried a nearby lacey drive power supply which fits the mybook - NOW IT WORKS FINE!!! This is the second power supply I've had problems with with the western.

Mybook Not Working

Wd Easystore Won't Mount
I don’t know if it’s caused by the new Macbook Pro (latest Mac OSX Snow Leopard) I recently purchased. The whole problem started when I plugged the external MyBook HD to the new Macbook Pro to transfer some files, it was working, but then when I plugged it back to the Powerbook G4, it’s just not showing. I then tried to plugged it again to the new Macbook pro, not showing either. I have the My Book HD configured in RAID 1 with no password at the moment.
I also bought another My Book Studio Edition II HD two weeks ago (don’t know now if this is a good idea now!!). I’m using it with the Macbook Pro with Time Machine. At the moment seems to be working ok. But I’m not dare to plugged it in to the Powerbook G4, just in case it disappear on both laptops. I apologise for the long posting, but I think I’ve coveredd all the issues that I encountered. I hope the drive will come back so I can get back all the data (900MB) in it.
Thanks so much for your help in advance.
