My 64Mb JumpDrive USB has suddenly stopped working. It works fine on my Win laptop, but no longer pops up on the desktop or finder in OS X. I recently installed the 10.3.3 update, does anybody have any problems like this? How do I uninstall the update to see if that is the problem?

MacFixIt reported about these problems. Is it formatted as HFS+? If not, you may try to reformat it and see if it helps.

Interesting, I was choosing between the Lexar and the Memorex version. I've opted for the memorex (same price usb2). So far no problems but its formatted to Fat. When I get home from work, I reformat it on the mac and I'll see what will happen when I plug it into my peeeceee

I'd have a go, but ti doesn't show up anywhere I can find to tell OS X to format it!
