hi.please help..my usb 2.0 removable flash disk had a problem. i reformatted it and while in the process it failed. then after that my usb can't be detected by mac but i can see it in disk utility. i tried everything in disk utility.
h.tiff

that disk2s1 when i try to verify, or even repair it something will say that
** /dev/disk2s1
could not read boot block (Permission denied)
Filesystem error: verify or repair failed

i can't mount it too..when i hit the mount icon it would say try first aid on it first or verify or repair and try again. i've searched everything in the net but i can't find something.

ah..and when i insert my usb in windows (desktop) the usb will be detected but i cannot open it.. the pc will hang and i can't even get to see its properties in windows..gaaah..i'm so desperate..

my usb is transcend 4gb

please help me...thanks...
 
I would say that your drive is done given that you cannot repair it via Disk Utility.

waaa...omg...but...why can it be read in both os..and do you know how to make the usb's ownership enabled..?...mine is disabled... thanks
