Question posted by loisjean on May 28th, 2011
Why Won't My Lacie Mount On My Desktop?
Mac OS X, Version 10.6.7
Processor--2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory--2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
I'm using the above, and I think I've done things correctily, but I can't find it on my computer. I assume that means it's not mounting. I'm not very good at this, obviously. It's showing a blue light on the front, and I have it connected to a USB hub.
Since I'm a novice, please use terms I can understand. I thank you in advance.
