I have an iomega 80 gig external harddrive. The hard drive works when i plug it into PC's, but when I plug it into my Mac it will not read it. It shows activity then it stops like it doesn't recognize it. The external hooks up through the usb ports. I have tested all of the usb ports with other devices, and I know its not the usb cable because the same cable works on a PC.<br />

Thanks,<br />
