I appreciate the attempt from the person who tried to help, and for some reason there seems to be no way to respond...maybe I wasn?t
clear enough as to the issue?I have a Mac running OS X (Tiger) and a WD My Book external hard
drive. Automatic backups had been going well but are now failing. Error
message, not enough space left on drive. A check of storage space reveals
capacity 465 Gb with just as much spaced used, so error message would make
sense. But then I deleted large files and it doesn?t register the difference
when I recheck the storage space ? in other
words, I?m removing large files that would take up room (including 90% of the
old backups) and still there?s no change, I can?t back up to the drive. Help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

I just want to use it like a flash drive. Why is that so hard to do?
I told it not to install any of the WD SmartWare applications, but I still couldn't move files to it.
Then, the way the website read, I needed to install a firmware update, which I did. Now, I still can't move files to it. Any time I try to save something to the drive, it tells me that the drive is "read-only." How do I fix this problem?
I am speaking of a portable Western Digital MyPassport 320 GB.
