Mode not supported on Samsung TV after new desktop hard drive installed
If you read through your HDTVs manual you will find that it only supports FAT32 ~ maybe also NTFS.
Mac OS Extended Journal (HFS+) is a proprietary file system and even a Windows PC can't read it without the appropriate tools or drivers installed ~ let alone a TV.
I'm afraid you will have to reformat your Hard Drive
* This will delete all data on the drive
1. open up Disk Utility (/Applications/Utilities/)
2. select your external drive ("1TB WD Elements" or whatever it is called)
3. click on the Partition tab
4. select the following settings:
Partition Layout: 1 Partition
Format: MS-DOS (FAT)
the name will change to "UNTITLED" but you can change it to whatever you want
click the Options button at the bottom and select "Master Boot Record"
When everything is set click Apply at the bottom right.
Again, this will delete all data from the drive so you will want to backup it beforehand.

How to use a seagate slim mac portable drive?
Some have a external power cord plug it in to a power point .others are powered up by the USB port. Connect it to a USB port and power it up . The computer will find it as a hard drive and give it a name. Click on my computer and you will find it there. It can be used to save programs on or for back up ECT.

The blue light keeps flashing on and off on my Seagate 4Tb XHD. It won't show up on the finder as connected. What causes that?
follow these steps:
- Make sure the computer and external hard drive are powered on.
- Safely remove the drive from the computer (if possible).
- Disconnect the external drive's USB or FireWire cable.
- Disconnect the power supply plug from the external drive.
- Power off the computer.
- Disconnect the computer's power supply cord for 60 seconds.
- Reconnect the computer.
- Power on the computer.
- Connect the power supply to the external drive.
- Connect the drive's USB or FireWire cable and check for detection.
If that does not correct the behavior, and if the drive is also not detected by your computer, the blinking light is probably a symptom of a larger problem. If those steps do not return the drive to correct function, it is very possible, even probable, that the drive has failed and needs to be replaced

Password forgot
Hard wire into your router, enter ip address and then user name and password or factory default.
Change password security to none, save settings, cycle power on router. This will clear secutiy on router and now repeat the above steps and enable secutity and assign password.

Is the drive speed 7200 or 5400?
