I have a brand new 3 TB Passport that, after installation, does not list ‘Backup’ or recognize itself during setup. This is the same problem I had with a prior 3 TB Passport that could not be resolved and was ascribed to ‘defective’. This is a 2nd attempt to use this device. I have a .pdf document with images illustrating all I’ve done to prevent needless back & forth over ground previously covered.
