Not sure what to do in this situation, I need everything on this HD and I know everything is still intact because I can use it on other computers. If i go into standby its still connected, but if i unmount it or restart the computer, its lost again it wont connect. But once it does connect for the 5% of the attempts to connect it works fine. But it wont connect on my Macbook Pro 95% of the time. I am able to view everything add/remove items. I even take the My Passport Ultra and it connects onto other Macs and PC’s with NO problem at all. I have tried attaching my phone, other devices and other HD’s to my macbook pro with no problem. It doesnt show up on my sidebar, or on disk utility.
