Thank you so far, but at the moment I’m really frustrated.
I tried it on OS X and on Windows 7 but in both cases I get the message that I have to remove the password protection first. Then I can configure the disk. But that’s exactly what I want to do! Remove the password protection permanently. Of course I did the unlocking before running the VCD manager.
So let me summarize waht I did until now:
-
Tried to install smart ware on my mac → did not work
-
Installed smart ware on my windows PC → did work, but windows did not see my drive because it is formated for mac
-
Tried to perform a firmware update → did not work on mac or PC but my drive has the latest FW anyway, probably no problem
-
Tried to remove the password protection with VCD manager on mac and windows → VCD manager does not work with the drive until password protection is removed from my passport
So with the latest hint we have a kind of dead lock. Need to run the VCD manager to remove the password but VCD manager does not work until password protection is removed ??? Any other ideas?
