problems reading external hd
I purchased a usb box for the old 6 gig hard drive out of my old ibook.
When i connected it to my imac it read it fine until I erased it. Now nothing at all. It can still see the drive but it won't mount. I am wanting to use this as a jump drive mainly to cary my itunes music to work. I used disk utility to erase the drive. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

If you have a spare cable you could also try swapping the cables around as it may also help.
I have had a similar problem myself and this is the one thing that helped me to get the drive to mount again.
You could also try changing the usb port that it is connected to on your mac to see if that also makes any difference.
I hope this is of some help and good luck with getting it working again.
