Re: OT Mac help
Thanks Doug i clicked that item off now i'll see how that works David, only my one back up, older model, and my time machine, newer model show up. I have to disconnect the second back up from the computer, then plug it back in for the sidebar to show the drive, if the computer se=leeps only 7A shows up but not 7 so i have to unplug and replug. as mentioned it may be older drives or older formatting Dave On Thu, May 16, 2024 at 6:22 AM David Mann wrote: > This may have been mentioned already, but if you run Disk Utility (it's in > Applications / Utilities) do they appear in the sidebar?

Re: OT Mac help
This may have been mentioned already, but if you run Disk Utility (it's in Applications / Utilities) do they appear in the sidebar? If greyed out you can right-click on them and select "mount". I do this with my external SSD as I like to leave it plugged in but not mounted unless I'm actually using it. My Time Machine drives are always physically disconnected when I'm not using them.
