NancyA Posted March 20 Posted March 20 I had to get a new hard drive/motherboard just to get a new bad port on my MacBook Pro laptop. I had no trouble with this external on previous hard drive but now it is showing as in the attached screenshot. It shows in finder with all the folders/images. This one is WD elements 10TB working in Finder not Bridge. These work in both finder & Bridge: G Drive & a WD 5 TB. A screenshot of the one not working shows the person as "system". The ones working show as "Nancy Abby (Me). Screen shot included. Hopefully I have included everything you will need. Thanks!
Brian Posted March 20 Posted March 20 If you can access the files via the finder on the drive that's giving you the problems. If it's just Bridge, it's likely a Permissions issue. Try heading into your Settings >> Privacy & Security >> Files & Folder (along with Full Disk Access.) You are going to have to poke around. This is a Bridge problem.
NancyA Posted March 20 Author Posted March 20 Sorry to bother you. I fixed it! I was just stumped because some worked and some didn't and assumed a setting on the external. It was a "Mac" setting but why some worked and some didn't still doesn't make sense but adding it to privacy & security full access did the trick. I'm not sure I'm going to survive this new hard drive. Small glitches occurring every day! 1
