Hi everyone,
I'm a very newbie here and in the Mac world,
so please tell me if this is not the right forum to post about it.
I haven't found any other thread about my issue but please also tell me if I just missed it.
I have a MacBook Pro Retina 13", and I updated to El Capitan this morning.
I also have a 4TB ISY external drive which has been formatted and partitioned as MS-DOS.
It already contains files.
When I switch on the hd I get the error message (see attachment 1, in Italian, but should be understandable):
"The connected disk is not readable by this computer"
Then I ignore the message and open Disk Utility, you see what I get in attachment 2.
As you can see it is not possible to activate the disk.
So I tried with the SOS option and this is what the final log says (attachment 3, lines 5-6):
"Some issues with the map of partitions have been identified, which might prevent the (disk) launch"
I really have no idea of how to proceed in order to be able to read and write the disk from my new Mac,
and I thank you in advance for any help
Dorothea
