I bought the My Passport to copy my files from the My Book. So all my work for several years is on this My Passport. Now I can't get the My Passport to mount even when I leave it connected to my computer overnight. I don't know how to access the files on this My Passport so I can back them up and reformat the drive.

References [ ]. I have been using a 'My Passport for Mac' external HD as the destination disk for Time Machine backups. Then I noticed that the computer was no longer seeing that HD. Since rebooting did not help, I purchased a new My Passport for Mac HD. When I installed it, the computer immediately 'saw it.' I just left it be and eventually Time Machine started a new backup. The last time I looked it was about 10% finished making the new BU. Next time I noticed, I had a message saying that the device had not been properly ejected. Finder no longer showed this disc. I did a complete shutdown and restarted the computer. Computer still does not see this disc. I use two other external HDs and occasionally get the same 'failure to eject' message, but a reboot has always corrected the situation. Any suggestions? I have an older Mac Mini, but my OS is 10.10.4. Click to expand. 'My Passport' has only a USB connection. I did a SMC reset. This seems to have corrected the problem - at least for the last 5 minutes. I'll feel better if it is still functioning after 48 hours. Consequently, if this is acceptable procedure, I'lll leave this thread open and report back in a couple of days. Thank you so very much for your help. Over the years, I have had a few occasions to turn to the Forum for help. To the best of my recollection you, Mr Cooper, have always responded and your advice has always been sound. Again thank you for your kind and generous help. Glad you were able to resolve your issue. And yes, Cory is a valuable resource, that's for certain! I'm wondering if this thread is another indication that WD drives are, at times, problematic, where as drives from a number of other manufacturers (Seagate, LaCie, etc.) are easier to work with. Myself, I have relied almost exclusively on Seagate drives, having used a number of them for various purposes, and with various interfaces (SCSI, USB, and Firewire).
