Files will not transfer!
When I plug my seagate external into my macbook pro I can play and get to all of the files on it but when I try to transfer files on to it it gets half way done and then I get the message "this file is in use by another application" and will not let the transfer go through. The thing is it is not being used by another application, I quite all applications. Then when i try and eject my hard drive I have to force eject it.
Things I have tried:
1. relaunched finder
2. ran both macbook pro and hard drive through disk utility - everything was fine
3. unplugged and replugged my external from both my computer and its power source.
The only thing I can think of is that it fell off my desk a day or two ago about two feet... could that be the reason it isn't letting the file transfer go through?
I also just recently updated my mac, could that also be the reason?
Please help!!!
Is this a good question?

Just to double check, you tried "repair permissions" and "repair disk" on that hard drive and it did not help?

Yea I already tried that on both the drive and the computer. And it said everything was okay.
