I've tried several different times and nothing is working. So I'm unable to click apply to make the changes. I've gone through the steps found in this forum, and they're the same steps the rep walked me through with the first drive: launch Disc Utility, select the drive, click Partition, give the volume a name, click options to choose GUID Partition Table, and then under Volume Scheme: choose Partition 1, click apply.īut what happens with this drive is the minute I change the Volume Scheme from "current" to "partition 1", all the options and buttons go grey.
CANNOT FORMAT WD EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE MAC WINDOWS
Unfortunately I purchased a drive that is formatted for windows (NTFS). But I cannot for the life of me get anything to work. So I purchased a WD Elements 1 TB external HD and want to do the same thing that I did with other drive.install the operating system on it and pull all the data off the original computer HD to it. But I've run out of space it was only 120GB and I've got about 144 GB of data left to retrieve. This has worked great and I'm currently working off that drive and have managed to pull a lot of my data off the IMac's HD to that external drive. To save my data the rep walked me through installing the OS on an external HD. Spoke with Apple support and they decided my OS had become corrupted and that the only solution was a complete reinstall. My IMac died on me the other day and would not reboot. I've searched the forums for this and have seen several questions addressing this but none of the solutions are working for me.
