Hello,

I am currently trying to eject the USB Drive by writing a small carbon application.  Can you guys can give me some idea.

FYI: I tried calling the Diskutil using System call

system ("diskutil eject disk1");

but the volume present in the disk1 gets unmounted but the device is not getting ejected.  (i.e. After doing this If I open the Diskutilty application I am able see the USB HDD entry) but if I click on the eject button from the Diskutilty then the entries are disappeared from the diskutility app.

Dear guys please help me on this issue.

Try unmountdisk instead of eject. You can do all this from the DiskArbitration framework as well. ...Duane -- "Design is an interplay of science and art - the instinct of using exactly the right methods and resources that the application requires." - Bernard Friedland, "Control System Design" _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
