hello,
i'm new here and hope you can help me.
i have an external 80gb firewire hd and a 1.5ghz 12" pb. until yesterday everything was fine, but now the disk doesn't mount anymore.
the weird thing is, that it mounts on everybody elses computer. i can connect it via firewire and usb2.0 . if i connect it to my computer via usb it mounts, but not with firewire.
connected via firewire, the system profiler shows the disk. the disk utility just says there is a problem, but i can't fix anything. i reformatted without results. ah, and i formatted it as fat32, so i can share data with pc-users.
i conected an external firewire cd-drive and it works, so the firewire seems to be ok.
please help me, i don't want to have to connect it always via usb, since i just have two but a lot of other peripherals...
thanks, luis
