13.5 Venture update - Now my MAC won;t mount my external harddrive (WD Elements 10TB)
Ran the update yesterday, haven't been able to read my External hard drive since. I have changed USB ports, I can see in disk utility, but unable to run first aid, When I mount I receive the following error - error : 49153.
I restarted in Safe mode, I can access the external drive as it appears on my desktop. I tried disk utility, still not able to run first aid. Tried a few Terminal suggestions from various forum responses with similar issues..
This is my daily use drive with almost 10TB of photographs for my business and my clients. It's a real pain in the bum that I don't have time for
and NO - formatting the drive is not an issue
and NO - there is nothing wrong with the cable
and NO - there is nothing wrong with the hard drive
and NO - I haven't unplugged it, or done anything to it that gives Apple an out for what they are responsible for creating
I have restarted, shut down, slept on it, tried everything that is suggested on every other thread. I redownloaded WD Discovery and tried to mount it that way - the app can see the drive, but not access it.
I am still not able to access this drive.
APPLE - you need to fix this real quick
