My Passport doesn’t show on Mac anywhere

Hello,

I’ve been using My Passport for Mac 1 TB for a while without any problems.

Now I’ve connected it to a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian OS but because of the file format there are some files I can’t access and apparently I need to unchecked “Journaled” from disk utility in my Mac.

But now when I connect the drive to my Mac it doesn’t show anywhere (Files, DiskUtility even in Terminal).

I know the drive is in perfect condition because I can see the files in my Raspberry, I run some checks and everything seems fine, it’s just my mac doesn’t recognise it anymore.

Is there a way I can solve this from Linux or I need another Mac to check? Because I don’t have access to any other mac and I don’t really think I can change the permissions from Linux.

Thanks in advance
