I can't access my external hard drive
I just reinstalled the OS. I'm using Mac OSX 10.5. Before the reinstallation I was able to access a firewire drive I use. After the installation, I am not. The drive is recognized though! It shows up but when I try to open it, it appears as though it is continuously trying to access the content and basically freezes my computer until I disconnect the drive (which I know I shouldn't do).
How do I resolve this?
