Hey guys, I have an issue with a Time Machine backup on my external HD. I am going from a first gen intel iMac to the 2011 model. The issue is that my hd has fw 400 and my mac fw 800. No biggie, I'll just buy a fw 800 to 400 cable from lacie.

The cable works as I moved files from my wifes' macbooks across. That was from computer to computer, it worked flawlessly. However my mac does not see the external at all. Anybody have any clues?

Thanks!
