Mac doesn't recognized my HTC Legend?

How weird, it worked before. Today, when I plugged in my HTC Legend as normal into my Macbook Pro, the HTC Legend displays the charge LED, but not the sign in the notification. However, the USB Debugger sign is there. I look on my mac and can not find my HTC Legend anywhere.

What's wrong? I've connected it to the same Macbook over 50 times, and it works all fine. I tried plugging back, hoping the USB cable was faulty, and still the same thing!

Thanks in advance for the help!
 
Maybe it's a new "feature" for Macs. They'll only recognize "pre-approved" phones (e.g. iPhones) now.
But it worked before. I didn't update anything. Still the same old Macbook

You might get more about that in here, the HTC Legend forums, eric.

I've moved the thread for you. ;)
I was hesitant to post here since less people look here, and it might apply to just any droid phone :(

Another apple hater... nobody cares.

Did you accidentally tick the little checkbox when selecting "charge only" if you did it won't ask you what you want to do when you plug the phone in anymore.

Thanks for the help, but I have already checked Disk drive. Even if I checked Charge only, it would show a sign on my notification bar, which it doesn't now =/

Freaking Macbook is a nightmare with attached devices.
When I'm copying music across from itunes to my phone sometimes it doesn't recognise my phone either. Usually requires several plugging and unplugging of the USB until something finally comes up.
Worse still though with the macbook is that it has real issues in attaching to my NAS.

Why are Macs so incompatible, fecking Steve Jobs!
