Hi!
somebody help me to find some files is on my external drive?
I had the same problem a month ago and I found a ghost folder. in that folder is write something about a SSL library... then when you change the the library in the same drive you still show all the name you had in the other old one(just a name--No files).
I found this folder reading the external drive with a PC... But into my MAC is no showing.
I hope it's clear.....sorry for my enghlish

Isn't there a setting on Macs where you can choose whether you want to view hidden folders or not. I only got experience with PC, but I would assume there is one.

Thanks
I'll tried but I didn't found....then I Format the hard disc and now everything is workin'

defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles ON

to reverse it back, replace ON with OFF

Do as the ReadMe says, and you'll be good to go...

i forgot to mention you have to force-quit the finder to so it loads the prefs...

oops it's "YES" not "ON"...

you could also do a
ls -al
in the root directory of the mounted disk.
