Running SL 10.6.3 on new i5 mbp.....connecting 3 external hdd's to a usb hub then to the mpb.
Only one of the drives shows up on the desktop (they all show up in disk utility - 1 formatted NTFS, 2 mac journaled). I have enabled the finder to show all external devices on the desktop (Finder > preferences).
When i show all files via the terminal:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool false
all 3 hdds show up on the desktop. tried to unhide the drives but couldn't find any command to do it, only to hide files and folders, not drives.
Any suggestions?
External HDD not showing up on desktop!!
