Ok so here's what happened....
1st. I dropped my Seagate hard drive & got unplugged so it did not get ejected properly. So I got that error message. I plugged it back in & eventually all my files appeared after "spotlight" finished indexing my external hard drive.
2nd. After I properly ejected the hard drive a pop up said I couldn't disconnect it because one or more applications were using it but i had no applications open, so i forced ejected it.
3rd. Later on in the day i connected the hard drive & all my files were not there but i saw that the "spotlight" was indexing it again & eventually but slowly my files started appearing.
4th. I went to disk utility & attempted to "repair disk" because the "spotlight" was taking forever & I didn't want to have to go through that every time i connected the hard drive.
5th. I stopped the repair because it stood on "35mins left" for about an hour.
All in all, now my hard drive wont mount, i get that error message "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer" it does show in the "disk utility" but as this name, "2.2 TB Seagate FreeAgent Go Media" my hard drive used to be called "Dj Music".
Any suggestion in trying to get my files back???
