Why Won't Mavericks Index My External Hard Drive?
Ever since I upgraded to Mavericks, my 13 inch MacBook Pro (2010) isn't able to Index my Western Digital My Passport External Hard Drive. It just keeps saying "Indexing" and "Estimating Indexing Time," but never seems to start or finish, even when left running overnight. I really need to be able to search my hard drive using Spotlight for work, so this is quite an inconvinience for me. When I type in a search phrase in Finder the related files sometimes appear, but when they do they constantly flash on an off, as if it's finding them but then losing them again.
I haven't suffered any data loss as other WD user seem to have, so that's good, but I really do need to solve this indexing problem.
Please help!
MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9)
