Q: Can't transfer files to new WD passport external HD
I have a new WD passport ultra external hardrive. This is in addition to one I already have as my time machine and another that I have as a back up of that. I've since bought a 3rd to back up certain files, from my iMac and from one of my external hardrives. However, it won't let me copy & paste or click and drag anything from either the iMac or the external hardrive to the new external hardrive. Can anyone tell me why and more importantly what to do to overcome this problem pls?!

As it was sent is most likely NTFS (windows) so go to disk utility, select it and change it to MacOS Extended (Journaled). Everything on it currently will be deleted by this.
