OS X - zip Disk Does Not Appear on Desktop
I have had a problem with one of our systems not
mounting a zip drive to the desktop, but it shows up in /Volumes/
After upgrading to OS X v 10.3 (thinking that could
be the issue) I finally discovered that the zip drive link remains hidden in the
/Volumes/ folder even after the drive is removed which was causing the icon to
not mount on the desktop.
In order to
fix the problem I had to run the following line from
Terminal:
sudo
rm/Volumes/._ZIP250
and authenticate
when requested. I would imagine that this would work on any drive with the same
problem.
