Aperture libraries must be stored on drives formatted as MacOS Extended (journaled). fat 32 will not work.
If the drive is otherwise empty, open disk utility and reformat the drive. If you have other data on it, you must copy it to another drive before formatting or it will be lost.

Ralph: it’s like Thomas said. Disk utility is your friend in this matter.
I was in hopes of using the drive for both mac and windows.
Thanks
Ralph,
You can still use the Mac formatted disk with Windows if you get a utility for Windows to read Mac disks. MacDrive is one example. I haven’t used it.
