Cannot open USB on Apple
I have a Gateway USB device that I used for storage first on my Mac and then on a PC. After use on the PC, I was unable to re-open the USB on my Mac. In fact my mac can't read the USB at all when I try to load it. How can I restore my data, or at least get my USB to work again on the apple?
Does the Mac recognize the device at all...does it insert it into finder? You might try formatting it as a FAT32...I believe that both Windows and the Mac recognize that format.

It recognizes it, but it no longer comes up with the icon for a USB... and I can't open it at all. How would I go about re formatting it? Is it possible that it was re formatted somehow when I inserted it into the PC ?

I'll try that...if not I may just have to buy another device.
