What you might not know: There can be many reasons for an external hard drive not reading a Mac - poor connection, faulty cable, dirty USB, or, in the worst-case scenario, corrupt hard drive data. But sometimes you meet the "external hard drive not showing us" issue. Better safe than sorry.What you know: When you plug in an external drive disk utility into your Mac, you expect it to pop up and be showing up on mac in Locations in Finder - next to your remote disk and the computer itself. The macOS High Sierra 10.13 Supplemental Update should be live by the time you read this, and you can access and update to it via the Mac App Store.Īlso note, if you used the same password for your encrypted APFS container as any other accounts (for example, your Mac user account), change those accounts. Restore the data that you backed up in Step 1 to the new encrypted APFS volume that you just created.Click Done when the process is complete.You can see the progress of the Erase process. Enter it again to verify the password, and if you'd like to, provide a hint for the encrypted APFS volume. Then change Format again to APFS (Encrypted).
When asked, type a name for the volume in the Name field.Open Disk Utility and select the affected encrypted APFS volume in the sidebar.Create an encrypted backup of the affected encrypted APFS volume.Install the macOS High Sierra 10.13 Supplemental Update from the App Store updates page.Still, Apple (opens in new tab) has provided the following instructions for how to roll back even under those circumstances: The number of people affected - those with physical access to a device with an existing APFS container that also has an additional, encrypted APFS container who wouldn't also have the password to that container - is probably tiny. But Mariano had already reported it to Apple, and Apple is already deploying a fix.
