Hi,
I just bought a Maxtor system to download all my files. The system is installed on my laptop, however I can't seem to download my files, and really don't know how to do it.
After attaching my maxtor 111 mini to my laptop nothing happens. I don't receive any prompts and nothing appears to be downloading. I have the black and the red USB port plugged in.

You can't post conmments that contain an email address.
All you should have to do is copy your files from their present folder on your computer to the Maxtor drive; you can find the drive location by clicking on the My Computer icon; or you can drag the files from their present position to the Maxtor.

Access can be denied for several reasons - if the file is in use or even part of it - try dragging the folder or file to your desk top and then delete it
I have a Maxtor Ext HD myself. Maxtor has a website. Try www.maxtor.com or Google it and you will find their web site. Then search for your HD and do a search for the download of the drivers needed for your HD
Sounds like you lost the drivers for your external. W/ out an online PC you cannot download them either. Do you have a friend that could do this on their PC? That is the only way.
Software downloads are available from the Seagate support site. Here is
a link to the download page for Maxtor OneTouch III family. It should provide the latest version of all software that came with the new unit, including "Updated software to run in Windows Vista. Also can be used in case the
original software that was preloaded on the drive has been erased."
