E3000 you see is not a WD MyBook for Mac 2 TB external hard drive

Just bought a router from LinkSys e3000 and WD My Book for Mac (+ WD Smartware) in order to save my two MacBook Pro wireless.  The router works FINE for all other wireless and routing functions.

Bottom line, the LinkSys Router cannot access external drive USB, the same scores if he can 'see' the reader. (By clicking 'claim' does nothing)

This would have something to do with the functionality of ITS and drivers needed - since I can't add the drivers to the router.

(1) valid router works by plugging an another WD MyBook essential 1 TB drive (PC version) and the routers sees several partitions.

(2) worked with support technical LinkSys to check the router works with the journaled Mac partitions and the router worked as expected

(3) added a FAT on my book Mac volume - still does not work with the router

(4) plugged my book Mac directly on the MacBook Pro - works fine (actually a backup from two Mac Book Pro both 1 via USB direct connect)

(5) off VCD - no luck on the router

Can anyone provide a suggestion before I return this drive to WD?  I'm at my wits end.

In addition, other that this problem with WD, I can highly recommend the LinkSys e3000.  Seriously HOT router with a huge flow.

Yes... it's that I'm just understand! : smileymad:

Please ask PD to put this future firmware support on the list for improvements.  I love the router, but really miss you a market of large target with this omission.

It is closed for me.   Thank you!

  • You can use migration assistant to transfer the time machine backup external hard drive?

    Hello. I just bought a new macbook pro with a 256 GB flash drive to replace my previous macbook pro that had a breakdown of all the systems. My problem is that I have a time machine backup that is greater than 256 GB (it's almost 450 GB) and I try to find out if I can use migration assistant to transfer all the content directly on an external hard drive, then move the content I want on my hard drive from the external hard drive? My goal is to let my music and photos on the external hard drive and for all port hardware I need for work.

    I don't have access to another mac with storage well enough that I have the old HD so could potentially be installed in an external enclosure and extracted files directly from there if it's easier.

    What I intend to do in the long term is to buy a big external hard drive network and put all my photos, music etc over there and use the laptop as expected - that is for files from day to day - then it will be just a short-term problem.

    Any advice would be really appreciated.

    Thank you

    Nick

    Migration Assistant is user to transfer data from one computer to the other.  If I read your post correctly, you want to copy your data from Time Machine on another HARD disk.  Thia may be useful:

  • External hard drive does not work on windows 7 after using the external hard drive on a mac (osx 10.7)

    title says it all. It does not open on autoplay and does not anywhere, but is always works on mac

    http://www.Mediafour.com/products/MacDrive

    If you want to use the drive to read and save files on both mac & PC I think that you will need create separate partitions on the disk, a formatted for mac and one for the PC.

    The utility linked above only allows access to a mac formatted drive and access the data, having never had to use it I don't know if it allows you to save files PC to the mac player

  • Can not see the drive letter for Hammer 640 GB external hard drive

    I have an external hammer 640 GB drive (which has a Western Digital WD6400AAKS drive inside) with important data. When I connect to my computer (under Windows XP Pro), I can see the player if I go to my computer-> hardware-> readers but can see any drive letter.

    Even if boot disks using software such as Hirens boot and demarrer start with the BACK, do not see this drive (I tried A - Z).

    There is apparently no physical damage to the disk.

    Hello
    In this case, it seems to me that the drive itself is damaged. For this purpose, it is likely that there is no conventional solution through Windows itself.

    I suggest you seek a professional store of COMPUTING, or computer confidence. If information on this drive is still recoverable, it will probably take advice from specialized professionals and know how to do really.

  • External hard drive not detected

    I have an external hard drive of 4 Marine to... .and a Macbook pro with the latest El Capitan... When I connect the external hard drive for Mac pro, an external hard drive can not detect, but there is a light flashing on the external hard drive. It worked well until last night after I used iTunes and went to another Mac. I still eject properly.

    Any ideas on how to solve this problem

    Try using disk utility to repair the disk. If the drive does not appear in the disk utility list, then he dies. Contact the manufacturer or supplier.

    Shut down the computer, disconnect the drive. Wait five minutes and then reboot and reconnect the drive.

  • Windows 7 can not "see" the files on my external hard drive all of a sudden after I used ICACLS to give me full control.

    I used ICACLS in a command prompt high to give me all permissions for all on the external hard drive. I do not share the disk or remove permissions from any other 'user' but all of a sudden the guest not to see the files on the disc and I don't know what to do about it. But when I open a window and go outside, the files are there, I can access it, use them in all cases, I would normally.

    Anyone has an idea why an elevated command prompt would not be able to see the files that are clearly on the external hard drive? There is just something not right on command prompt, you see only not the files that are there.

    Thanks in advance

    Update: it turns out that there seems to be some kind of conflict between the UAC and the Administrators group. Don't know how I was touched, but I finally finished refusing authorization in writing system on my external hard drive. Suddenly Builtin Administrator, users of Builtin and NT Authority stood, one of them, or another group, resumed training, locked read-only access to all files, and then he took it a little further and removed my ability to write attributes or read them. I was forced to use a back up 'Admin I have on standby with a third I reapplied my main administrator permissions, but still denied access. After doing things with ICACLS, I was able to get a partial control, but I still couldn't save.

    At the end of the road, it turns out that an external hard drive formatted in NTFS is recognized by the computer as a disk fixed, as if it were part of the computer, and there it was treated as such, given my file system files by locking the.

    Even with the hidden Builtin Administrator I activated, I couldn't access the files. I finally had to move all the girls to the drive c:\ and format the external drive with exFat so that the system do not think that he was part of the computer. Unfortunately, I can never depend on having a System Image backup because exFat cannot have a writing for her.

    I have full access, as well as anyone and everyone, there is no permissions on exFat, so it's a compromise, better than the system for the control of my own computer ruined combat...

    I bought a Toshiba external hard 400GO USB Drive of DABS it delivered without a CD Rom. I plugged the USB cable into the computer, but it did not detect the drive, even after re - starts or try other USB slots. Not shown in Device Manager.

    I don't know if this external HARD drive needs an additional but installation CD everything must be shipped with the HARD m disk box!
    To my knowledge this HARD drive needs an external power supply. The cable must be delivered also with this HARD drive.

    So take your manual HDD and check shipped all parts! If something is missing you dealer of HARD drive!

    PS; the CD cannot be downloaded on the net!

    Hi amireos,

    Yes, you can create your workflow where you can keep all your images on the external hard drive and the Lightroom catalog file as well.

    If you start with Lightroom and then use the Destination location as external hard drive when you import your image of the external source such as a camera or SD.

    If you already have your Images on the Mac HD drive, then play all your Image on the external hard drive first and then import images directly from there.

    Finally, you can change the location of the Lightroom Catalog as well.

    Default location: folder on the Mac Drive HD, there is folder called Lightroom that you can move on the external drive too (however catalog Lightroom can't memory space as its only import previews of the images is not the real image and full)

    Once you move the file catalog Lightroom external hard disk, then you need to browse the catalog file when you launch Lightroom only once.

    See thread: LR catalog moving on external hard drive

    Let us know if it helps.

    Kind regards

  • Drive external hard drive does not appear under "devices."

    Hello

    I just updated my OS to Sierra of MacOS. I have connected my external hard drive (HDD) and it does not appear under "Devices" in my Finder window. It worked fine before the update.

    I use a MacBook Pro (end of 2013), currently running MacOS Sierra (Version 10.12). My external HARD drive is a SeaGate Slim SL Media (500 GB).

    The external HARD disk appears in disk utility application. He also appears on the about this Mac > system report > USB. I don't know what the problem is, the external HARD disk is identified but does not appear for use in the Finder window.

    I read that it could possibly be in mode 'sleep' and putting the MacBook to sleep (while it is plugged into the external HARD drive) and it to wake up again should solve the problem. However, it did not work. No more restarting my MacBook. It was mentioned in another post that it may require extra power, so I attached power adapter and again, without success.

    I do not want to clear the contents of the external HARD drive.

    Is there a way to get my external HARD drive works as expected with my MacBook?

    Thank you much in advance.
