(At this point, if it were up to me I would wipe all of the macs we own and replace them with Ubuntu.
Unrelated, but is there any way to view files and folders in the OSX root directory besides through Terminal? It seems like this functionality was also removed when we "upgraded" from Snow Leopard. Which is also inconvenient, but would probably be faster than trying to reformat the drives and copy everything over onto them again given the amount of data I want to transfer.

I'm not super familiar with hard drive formats, but in the event we cannot get Maverick to actually work could someone possibly suggest a format able to handle large file sizes (the largest file I need to move is ~60GB) and be compatible with Windows 8.1 / OSX 10.9.4 / Ubuntu 14.04 as well?Īnother workaround I thought of would be just to install an Ubuntu partition on the mac and get the files off through the Linux install. If I did this, the FAT32 hard drive format would not be suitable, as format is unable to handle the extremely large sequencing datasets I need to transfer. I could reformat one USB drive and then copy to the others, but this would be extremely inconvenient and take days of copying files back and forth (and would prefer to fix the mac rather than go through this with every NTFS drive I own). How do I get the mac to mount these drives?

Installing the WD Passport drivers for OSX also did not work.

Installing the ntfs-3g driver also did not work (I was using this to write to the NTFS drives until we upgraded OS's). Manually mounting the drives does not work. I'm assuming this is the root of the problem. I want to remove data from the computer to create backups on the USB drives (no, I don't want to create an online backup or buy a new set of USB drives).ĭiskutil can see the drives, but cannot verify or repair them as they lack a GUID (GPT) partition scheme. The drives still work fine on other OSX 10.6.8, Windows 8.1 and Ubuntu 14.04 computers (this is appears to be a problem with the Maverick 10.9.4 operating system itself, rather than the flash drives which work flawlessly with every other computer I've tried). It could do it yesterday when it was OSX 10.6.8, but not today (OSX 10.9.4). Anyhow, this seems to have erased the ability of the mac to read or mount several identical USB drives with the NTFS format (WD My Passport Ultra 500GB USB3.0).
Due to some recent mac issues in my lab, we updated one of the computers to Maverick 10.9.4 from Snow Leopard 10.6.8 yesterday.
