I am trying to reformat an external seagate harddrive for use on my windows 7 running PC. The drive used to be used on a mac so is probably in the wrong format so isn't automatically detected when I plug it into my PC. I can find the drive using Device Manager and it says the drive is working fine, but it doesn't show up on windows explorer or my computer, which is where other tutorials say to reformat from. Any guesses as to how to detect and reformat the drive for use on the PC? (Unfortunately the old mac is now cactus so I cant just reformat from there.) Thanks a lot!

Reformat and partition Seagate external hard drive to make it show up in Computer. Press Windows Key + R, type diskmgmt. Msc into the Run dialog, and press Enter. In the Disk Management, right click the disk partition you need to format and then choose Format. In the pop-up window, you can set file system and cluster size and then click OK.

Haha, i had the exact same problem and I came up with a solution. I have an external seagate 2TB USB3 HDD, I used it for my Mac and when I used it on windows, I isn't there and i can't backup but the light was on.

Reformat

This is what you have to do: 1)just search format on the windows search option on start, open the program called 'create or partition hard disk partitions' 2) You will be able to see your drive in this application, right click on the unallocated space and there should be an option called format. 3)It should then format the drive to NTFS.

4)The drive will now appear in the start/computer menu. Hope this helps. P.S, I couldn't format it from my Mac as it only formatted it or wiped it to it's MAC OS Journaled thing.
