Hey - but what if I can't find the icon. When pictures are uploading, I can see "EOS" in the finder. When the pictures are done, it disappears. If I pull the cord out, it says "not ejected properly" and it's screwing up my pictures. Help! I just don't see anything to eject, I've looked and searched in finder and I've also looked on the desktop. Is there a way to eject without selecting what it is you want to eject?

I have a ledger nano s plugged into a hyperdrive adaptor but whenever I plug the hyperdrive in with the ledger connected it does not show up on my desktop and is virtually impossible to eject. The strange thing is everything I have plugged into it works so my computer knows they're there, I just cannot see them... Any tips for me?

If they are not showing up on your desktop then try this. Make sure that the finder (on the dock is clicked) is selected and is on the Menu bar. Click on the Finder (on menu bar) go to preferences, Then at the top click on General. From there make sure that External Disks has a check mark in it. See if that helps.

If you use a mouse just right click on your external drive icon and a window will pop up with an option to safely eject the drive. Select the option and wait for the external drive icon to disappear from the screen then you can safely pull out the drive from your computer. Thanks for the video anyway.

When I right clicked (two fingers) no eject appeared, and nothing happened with command and the E key... I miss the eject arrow on the finder....
@gregtoope
@gregtoope Год назад
what do you mean by "player". If its a dvd or cd player, then it will only eject the media inside it. If the drive is empty then you just unplug it as there is nothing to eject. If there is a disk in the drive than im not sure why its not ejecting.

its a machine dude, it has no idea what is connected. it only follows a pre programmed procedure. it is not AI. you, as a human can decide when to follow rules. that is part of being an adult. My mac, does not know what a garmin is. it just follows its programming. it is a a dumb machine. display message upon trigger, there is no SAFETY involved in this. it is a machine that does not understand the concept of safety. it does NOT know what a garmin watch is or why you should connect or safely disconnect from it. it doesnt know who or why this watch was even plugged in in the first place.
