Hi Jackie.
Now that's a good idea. I even have their telephone number, so I'll try
it out tomorrow.
The thing is Jackie, I've got the 750 and the 300 gb drives and only one
adaptor. At the moment a friend is busy unloading all the stuff off the
300 device and I'm stuck as I cannot find the correct adaptor for the 750
in my house.
I must have about 30 adaptors in the house! Would you believe, I also
have about 20 Remote Control units for various things.
What a nightmare! I used to stick on a sticker to the adaptor saying
something like Sony MD, Nokia phone or Torch but stopped for some reason,
now I have a large shoe box filled with adaptors and don't have a clue
what they are for. You are correct the ampage makes this a more serious
problem as you don't really want to burn out your phone by fitting the
wrong adaptor.
I'll phone Maplands in Glasgow tomorrow and they may be able to describe
the adaptor that comes with the 750 for me. With a bit of luck, I'll find
it plugged into a red hot telephone or radio which is burning out.
Thanks for the idea.
Very best wishes.
Andy.to

Hi Andy
As a suggestion, could you ask Maplin Electronics if they would tell you
the voltage of your supply for the Maxter if you are stuck?

Hi Darren
Your right mate one button and it's on the front. I have been using the
drive the other way round so I could easily plug in the power socket.
I don't know what the button is for and have never used it.
What I think I've done is lost the correct adapter for it. The one that
is connected may well be less powerful than the correct one. cannot
find another adaptor laying about though.
Are you able to read, or perhaps get a friend to read anything that may
be written on your adaptor. This will help me identify the correct one
for my drive.
I've got loads of them around the house, plugged in to various items, so
it's possible that I've got mixed up.
Best wishes.
Andy.

Hi Andy
Yes I have the maxtor one touch external hard drive as well, but I'm a
little confused, as you say there are two buttons on the rear of the
drive. However I cannot find any on mine. The only button I know of is
the one located on the front at the bottom.
If the drive is failing to start when you switch the power on, and all
cables are securely in place. Then I would suspect it has become
faulty.
Sorry I can't be more helpful
Darren.

Hi all.
Anyone got the Maxtor 1 Touch 750 GB External drive.
I need some assistance with mine as it no longer wants to boot. I
just discovered a couple of buttons on the back of the device today,
which I did not realize were there. Perhaps I've turned it off or
something, anyway, I've you have one of these I'd welcome some advise
from you please.
Best wishes.
Andy.
