I'll give it a try later when I get back from class...
Just to double confirm... I bought my MBP from Aus, I can still claim warranty from apple resellers here right?

No problem. Can.

Must it be premium reseller or any reseller will do?

i need some help on my mbp..i realise when i plug in my HDD, it detects but when i wanna transfer file,it couldnt transfer..i can transfer out from HDD but i wanna transfer IN cannot..

let me guess, .iso files??

Let me guess: your HDD format is NTFS?

That is most probably because your HDD is using Windows NTFS format. The MAC can read and write to the normal Fat32 Windows format. Any FAT32 formatted hard drive is read/write possible by either Microsoft Windows or Mac OS X. But if you have formatted the HDD using Windows Vista/Windows 7 it is most probably formatted as NTFS

NTFS formatting overcome the limit of maximum file size of 4GB in writing files to any hard drive. However, while Mac OS X can read NTFS drive partitions, it cannot write to it.

So if this is so, your solution for Mac to read/write to a HDD is to have the HDD formatted as FAT32, which if you do that all your data in the HDD will be lost

However there is another solution for this issue : Use NTFS-3G for Mac OS X download it at : ( http://www.tuxera.com/mac/tuxerantfs_2010.10.dmg ) together with MacFuse ( http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/downloads...USE-2.0.3,2.dmg ) which will allow your Mac write to an NTFS formatted hard drive as well as read it

Please GOOGLE for these 2 software to understand how to use it

every files

hmm..coz i was wondering why i can transfer out but cannot transfer in..Ok, i will try to solve it.thanks!

Like benny told you, ur HD must be NTFS. Just reformat to FAT32, prob solved.

With your HD connected to your Mac :

Open Finder . Right click the HD - select Get Info - you will see the actual format of your HD under the General tag

ok thanks thanks

Yish.... Just came back from Machines... It's the hard disk problem... It is able to boot from the disk without the hard disk... Now got to find a way to fix this hard disk's problem

If is under warranty , why don't you just replace the hard disk. They will backup all your dta ( as much as they can salvage it). It will take about a week maximum if the service center has no HD on hand. If they have within 2-3 days maximum

Hmm.... I bought it from Hikari... I guess I'll have to shipped it back to her...
Not sure if I still have the receipt...

What did you bought from her? The HD or the notebook? If it is still under warranty, might as well just go ahead asking them to fix it.. if it is HD problem, it is faster if you brought you own HD, ask them to swap it.. just like what I did.. bad thing about Apple support centres here .. they don't stock up anything .. so everything will take a week to get resolved.

I bought the Hard Disk from her.... Might have to go to a Seagate center to get it fixed...
I just swap one of my old HDD from my old macbook... Aikz, stupid momentus XT spoiled for no reason....

I hate Seagate, the one that failed on my 8 months old MBP was Seagate Momentus (not the XT) .. Apple replaced it with Hitachi now.
