A: Answer Hi MB, The WD My Passport Ultra for Mac comes pre-formatted for MAC OS. List of all WD firmware and software available for download. Plug in your WD My Passport’s USB cable into its Micro USB B port. Be sure to try the drive in each USB port on the computer if you have more than one.
See if that fixes the problem with the USB port. Download and install OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 Combo Update.
