USB drive will not appear in the finder, but is OK in disk utility

My "music backup" external USB 1 TB SSD showed in the Finder, until a few days ago, when he disappeared. I tried dismantling and Assembly of the command line. The said command-line editing is successful, but I still don't see the drive in Finder.

If I go into disk utility "First aid" reports no problem. The drive is formatted for OS X.  If I right click and say "Open in the Finder" I can see all the folders and even drag in the sidebar where they work, even after a reboot. I can't see the drive at a higher level.

How can I fix it? I guess a solution would be to create a folder called "Music disc" and then move all files on the disc in it and then put it on the sidebar, but it seems silly. How can I get my hard drive appears again in the finder.

PS Si I use a third-party file manager, such as ordering a PRO, the USB drive is available for selection in the drop-down list of disks attached.

Help!

The Finder, choose utilities go to menu, open the Script Editor and run:

the shell script ' chflags nohidden ' / Volumes/VolumeName /'.

put the name of the drive where is VolumeName.

  • USB key does not appear in the Finder or Desktop

    Using the latest version of El Capitan on a Macbook 12 "and then plug a SanDisk flash drive in the USB - C drive: the device does not appear in the Finder, at all, not under devices in the sidebar, or anywhere in the Finder.

  • My CD/DVD drive will not appear in the Device Manager, but present in the BIOS.

    DevCon didn't find it. It will not open even if I don't get to Device Manager and check for changes to the system. I deleted the registry entries upper and lower limit. Any other suggestions? For additional emphasis, he does not show even in the Manager of devices so I cannot restore or reinstall the drivers from there. It might also help that I use Vista Home Premium on a Compaq Presario F755us.

    Hello

    (1) does the BIOS see the main hard disk drive or a secondary hard drive?

    (2) remember to make changes to the computer before the show?

    You know may not be not that most systems are set to show only the splash screen. If you go into the BIOS Setup, it should show the disks that have been detected on two primary and secondary IDE channels.

    Note: the basic procedure to change the setting of the disk controller is to restart your computer and enter the system BIOS. The most common method is to press F2 to enter Setup, (another PC may use a different key). On the BIOS screen, find the setting that offers the AHCI, ATA or IDE and RAID. If the parameter is set to AHCI, change the setting to ATA. Restart the PC on the Windows installation disc

    Warning: Incorrect settings in the system BIOS can cause your PC function incorrectly. If you are not familiar with the configuration of the BIOS of the system, you must contact the PC manufacturer for assistance.

  • RAID DRIVE WILL NOT WORK IN THE MEDIA LINK BROWSER

    I have a RAID 5 drive connected to my MACPRO (MacPro5, 1), OSX 10.9.2. His work correctly on the BONE. In first Pro CC I can import files from it no problem, everything seems to go well until I try to link the media about him. The link media browser will not access it. I can see it, I can see the icon of RAID, but it will not access the files.

    Media link Explorer it will not appear on the list of the local drives on the left pane. When I double click on local hard disks, on the right pane, I can see the RAID HD icon, but when I click on it it won't open it. He knows its there, but can't access it. I don't understand. I can import files, etc., but not to link the files. I have to redo the entire sequence with the files of this RAID drive and its working days.

    I'd appreciate a lot of help with this problem.

    After moving all about the RAID I completely erased the disc.

    I reformatted it and moved all the data on it.

    Now, it seems to work.

    Not a good solution (because I do not know if the problem will resurface for a reason any)- but at least it's working.

    Here at least I know to test the new drive with the media browser before copying tons of data on it.

  • Webutation extentsion will not appear in the toolbar

    installed webutation extentsion... will not appear in the toolbar...

    I checked the Webutation extension and this extension is broken because it uses a function (quote() to quote a string) that is no longer supported in Firefox.

    This is not a bug in Firefox, but a bug in the extension and thus must be fixed by the creator of the extension.
    You can point the creator of expansion on the subject if you wish.

    I don't know for other extensions, but they can be broken as well and you will need to check the Console browser (Firefox/tools > Web Developer) for the error messages.
