Hello!
I have a Western Digital My Passport Ultra 1TB external hard drive which I use on multiple computers for schoolwork.
The hard drive works on every computer I've used it on BUT my personal Macbook Pro laptop. On other desktop computers, both Windows and iOS, I can save files to the hard drive and edit existing files no problem. But, on my laptop, the hard drive refuses to let me edit any files or save any files to it.
When I try to drag anything to it, the file just floats back in place as if the hard drive icon isnt' even there. When I try to do a File->Save As, I get a warning that the action is not possible.
I haven't been able to figure out why this is. It shouldn't be broken because there are no problems on other computers. Has anyone seen this before an fixed it?
Thanks!
