I was looking for a solution for my problem, but I think I found the solution for yours… I went here:

Firmware update

and downloaded the firmware update, I also cannot unlock my Passport, so I ran it and there was a prompt that said:

‘Erase My Passport Essential; too many attempts’

And there was a checkbox that would reformat your drive… since, as you said, you have not used your drive in a long time, and do not care to loose whatever you uploaded these, this might be something for you to try…
