Hi everyone, I upgrade my OS recently and my MAC is NOT reading my WD My Passport at all...
Anyone have this problem? I've even downloaded the WD Drive utilities and it still not connecting and finding it...
Any solutions?
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.12
If it wasn't working with the previous OS, then there is no reason. why it would start with a newer one.
It appears, from what you provided, that either the drive or the connector cable is failing. A few things you can try are:
FWIW, I have updated a number of my Macs to macOS Big Sur. I also have a number of WD My Passports, and so far, I have had no issues accessing any of them from these Macs.
These external drives are mostly formatted in HFS+, but a few are APFS or FAT32. None are either exFAT nor NTFS.
Which exact model is your MacBook Pro? Is it still running OS X El Capitan as per your tagline?
Nope I'm using OS Big Sur - but every time I plug in my external it is not reading it. It was even like that in my previous OS update too...
I think I put the wrong MAC on so that's why it is still on El Capitan...
My MacBook Pro is from 2017
Any tips would be great. Thanks.
