[MacBook] Macbook firewire problem

 

Hello everyone,

Great to see such a group devoted to Macbook Pro. I have a Macbook Pro that I use for video editing, using Final Cut Pro. My external hard-drive (Lacie, 1TB), which stores most video files, is not showing on my desk-top. It is connected to Macbook Pro through fire-wire 800 and I can feel reverberations/life in the hard-drive when connected to Macbook Pro, but the icon does not appear on desktop. I have also checked it in About This Mac > More Info > Hardware > Firewire, and it does not show the Lacie hard drive.

I bought a new Lacie hardrive thinking the hard-drive may have a problem but the new hard-drive is having the same problem. When I connect it through USB then hard-drive shows. I also took the MacBook Pro to Apple Store to get the firewire 800 checked and it worked ok with their harddrive. My firewire cords were also tested and they are ok.

This is a nightmare for me. Does anyone else have the same problem in the past? Any suggestions how to correct it?

Peace,
Mac
