Try a different cable. If that doesn't work buy a new enclosure and install the drive.

Have a western digital wd800 hdd Basically wont start up in computer it was in (was the master) Trying to get info off it with external enclosure (d-tour 3.5") and it wont do anything The other (old)...

Listen, if unit will also not work in external drive , chances are that the logic board on hard drive is toast. And if the cmos cannot recognize the drive the chances of you being able to get data off of the drive are very remote unless you use one of those expensive recovery services.

MY IMICRO WIRELESS MOUSE WAS WORKING FINE WITH BATTERIES AND WHEN HOOKED UP TO THE USB. IT HAS STOPPED WORKING AND ISN'T EVEN BEING RECOGNIZED WHEN I PLUG IT IN. MY COMPUTER THINKS IT'S A HANDY CAM OR...

I am still learning about this mouse since there were ZERO directions.
There is a button on the Dongle and the bottom of the mouse that apparently have to be pressed at the same time to activate it. As well, the batteries don't last very long. Some say you can use rechargeable batteries; recharge batteries with USB cord plugged in. I haven't discovered what the button below the scroll button does..Good luck.

Drive will not copy files to it

The Macintosh OS may not work with the drive due to the file system on the drive was created with windows. The drive may have to be re-formatted with the Mac to work on it. Now I don't use a Mac so I assuming the OS will have a problem with FAT32 or NTFS format that windows uses....I could be wrong.
