Mac Pro read is not Toshiba External HDD

I have a * Toshiba USB 2.0 Portable external hard drive (200 GB) *, and I used it fine on my PC with Windows XP for months.

I tried to plug into today in my newly purchased Mac Pro and it seemed very well on my desktop, but when I double-clicked to view content, my data and such were all there, but I couldn't access anything whatsoever. If I open a folder to see its contents, I got was an empty folder with a spinning graphic "Occupied" in the lower right corner. None of the individual files would appear at all never.

I would try unplugging, re-plugging in and then sometimes it wouldn't even register on the desktop. I have tried different USB ports on Mac Pro to look forward and try to make it reappear again.

Once I was actually able to view all the content on my hard drive. I tried to access an MP3 player out there, it load iTunes, but iTunes locked up on me, and I couldn't close out of it, and eject my hard drive.

When I "Get Info" on my external hard drive icon on the desktop, the format is MS-DOS (FAT32).

I use the Mac OS X 10.5.2 release.

Any ideas of what is the problem? I am absolutely puzzled and upset.

If you connect to Windows XP Home edition laptop / PC, it works well again. Am I right about that?

  • Mac Pro, Flash Storage, Dropbox, and external storage Solutions

    I am considering a Mac Pro to a computer in the enterprise. I hope someone can give an overview and experience with the dilemma of using a computer with a small amount of storage on board, dropbox and external storage devices.

    Background:

    Mac Pro storage on board - The Mac Pro has limited onboard storage. It comes with a 256 k flash memory and is apparently expandable to 512 or 1 TB. But, I can not even know where to buy the storage upgrade. For some reason, it seems even to be available for purchase on Apple's site. I can't understand how much it costs or where to buy it. I found a link showing how to install it, but that's all.

    Dropbox - Dropbox is an important part of the company, or at least my business. The tricky thing is that Dropbox doesn't seem to work very well if this does not work on an operating system main hard drive. I tried once on a Mac Mini Server, and it does not work well. I read on the Dropbox site that it doesn't work so well. The small amount of storage on board available for the Mac Pro means that it is necessary to use an external drive, which is fine with me, with the exception of the question of Dropbox. Is anyone here from an experience with this problem.

    External storage - the question here is as stated above. How to get an external drive on a Mac Pro, the operating system is not installed on, to work properly. I know that most people could read this and suggest to go to the website of Dropbox support for more information. I was able to do that and have nothing. Looking for Mac people who could potentially experience.

    In short, how the hell you upgrade Mac Pro flash storage... where do you get, and how much it costs?  And second, anyone experience using Dropbox on a Mac Pro, where the Dropbox folder is not located on the operating system drive.

    Thanks for any help that can be provided.

    -Apple does not sell to replace internal storage.

    -You can often find storage on eBay and other places. However, isn't that all in storage for some MacBook Pro model will work in the Mac Pro is much slower. One way to tell is that the MacBook you do not have a heatsink on them while the Mac Pro.

    -You can buy external storage Thunderbolt. To access only a disc both an external case USB 3/disc is about as fast as Thunderbolt. Can get pregnant using the portable 2 1/2 standard SSD

    -I did not all the posts here for the use of DB on an external drive.

  • Mac Pro 2013 does not connect to the hard G technology drive

    Hello

    I recently bought a Mac Pro and I am trying to transfer files from my hard drive mini 1 TB of G technology itself. The files came from a backup who was recently transferred to my 2011 macbook pro. I tried using cord USB 3.0 for the Mac Pro doesn't have a firewire plugs, but it does not recognize my hard drive. The hard drive is not showing any signs of work because I don't hear the fans turn on the player. The hard drive connects perfectly to my macbook pro via firewire, so should I buy a bolt of lightning for this firewire adapter? I really hope that I don't need to buy a new external, but I'd love to hear a few options for this issue, it would be greatly appreciated.

    Best regards

  • MAC PRO CONNECTION ISSUES NOT IDENTIFIED

    So, I had serious problems with lag (ping spikes connection) on my computer.

    I use Mac Pro (mid-2010), and I used the 'ping - i.2 192.168.0.1 sudo"command in a terminal to monitor my ping. My ping stays constant at 1ms - 3ms, but always rises to 100ms to 200ms every 6 to 15 seconds. And these "spikes" happens literally every 6 to 15 seconds, but it's not crazy to ping 1000 or even above.

    The difference strikes me much since I play overall infringement of counter-strike on mac, which the PPE ping can be clearly felt.

    The strange thing is that I'm not under any program that downloads or downloads and the offset ONLY HAPPENS in THIS COMPUTER SPECIFIC. The offset can't on my laptop and all. What is going on? My speculation on this issue is probably my computer seems to be sending files or signals a, and that's when the ping comes up, but I just can't understand what is happening.

    The connection USED TO BE FINE. Is this a problem with features hidden in my mac network or what? I was about to try to disable the SSDP service, which seemed to be the cause of the delay of a few of my friends, but I don't know how, since her pimp.

    Any help would be really really really appreciated.

    Please read this message before doing anything.

    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It is unlikely to solve your problem. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.

    The test is intended to determine if the problem is caused by a third-party software that loads automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

    Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

    The login screen is displayed even if you usually connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

    Test in safe mode. Same problem?

    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of the test.

  • Mac Pro 2009 will not start, no edge

    On Thursday, June 16, I sat to use my Mac Pro early 2009. I noticed that my Mac would not wake up by mouse click or the SPACEBAR on the keyboard. The led on my Mac, so I immediately thought that it was a problem with the graphics card.

    I force shut down the Mac by holding the power button. I waited 10 seconds and turned on my Mac back, everything was fine and I worked on my Mac for 3 hours.

    Last night 18 June I sat watching television when I heard the ringtone on my Mac Pro, I realized was a reboot. I went to the wire and connected and everything seemed fine. However later in the evening, I noticed a flashing LED on one of my two monitors. Once the Mac was on (fans spinning) but no signal to the monitor.

    I made another force off now the power button on Mac, but now when turn on the Mac there is no boot chime or control signal.

    I upgraded the graphics card to an AMD Radeon Sapphire HD 7950 in April 2013.

    Any advice would be much appreciated as I'm in the middle of a big project.

    Could also be a Mac Pro RAM chip inyour failure, sounds almost identical to a question I've had recently, I found the missing question when I removed the memory card.

    If one of the pair of cards, you will need to remove two cards.

    Try taking the memory OUT n test each module one at a time. Also check RAM editing maps, if none of the four lights on the two cards is turned on it idicates a defective module.

    Based on my experience, your extended keyboard usb from Apple is the oldest plastic or the most recent aluminium? Based on which you have a branch above Apple usb extension cable. Anyway look at the end of the cable usb and it is most likely has that match unusual for her, this little triangle. It can fit on the Mac Pro USB, but can be a little bit loose as an adjustment. If you use a newer Apple usb extension on the older plastic Apple usb keyboard, this isn't a good fit. If you use the old extension of usb Apple on the most recent alum Apple keyboard, which is not a good fit.

    So low line trying to look at the adjustment of the end of the usb in the Mac Pro or hub or ver, you connect to. I got this problem which caused two problems: I was using the older usb Apple with the new Apple alum keyboard extension cable.

    1. frequently the keyboard did not react, looked dead

    2 - beta install for starting seeds would start on the hard drive to complete the installation.

    Given that I have "corrected" the usb extension appropriate keyboard usb Apple alum both problems went away.

  • Mac Pro (2013) will not wake up from sleep after that put 10.11.2 up-to-date

    Problem:

    After that Mac Pro goes to sleep, keyboard and mouse enter don't wake him. Disconnect and reconnect the monitor will not help either. Unplug the monitor wouldn't be helped either. Hotkeys to stop will not help either. (I use Mac since 1986, so I know more tricks). The only thing I can do to start to use my Mac is again holding down the button of physical power for five seconds and make a hard stop.

    Background:

    It is a problem that sometimes in the past. However, it is not reproducible and usually one of the steps above might work, such that unplug the monitor (a Dell 4 K 27 ") of the power supply and then plugging.

    I use physically connected (USB) keyboard and mouse.

    Current state:

    After the 10.11.2 system update last night, my Mac Pro shows this problem every time he sleeps.

    He has already hit a critical delivery photography and currently affects a submission of work for the city.

    This is urgent.

    Other users have reported the same problem after 10.11.2. I've not seen a solution

  • Toshiba External HDD PX1267E - 1 32 and WME

    Designed to be used with Windows XP,

    Please can you tell me if it can be patched to be used with Windows ME software?

    Don t think that the software on the external HARD drive can be patched. Usually, these devices are always delivered with different drivers for different OS. Then maybe you will find the drivers on the CD or the HARD disk delivered.

    Anyway, I connected the new external 500 GB HDD on my laptop and I have not installed any additional software
    The operating system (Windows XP) has recognized the external HARD disk and worked very well.

    I think that if you connect the HARD drive to the unit you you n t need to install the software.
    The operating system uses the common Microsoft USB drivers and it should woks with these common MS drivers.

    Hello

    Have you tested this drive external HARD in relation to other computers?
    The sound signal comes from the drive HARD or the laptop?

    If the HARD drive may not be recognized by other computers, I suppose that the HARD drive is malfunctioning. Maybe a crash head or something like that

    You can also start Windows 7's built-in Disk Manager to check if the external HARD drive seems it. Click Start and type diskmgmt.msc in the search field to start disk management.
