I'm sorry, are you saying that you never formatted the LaCie?

Santa brought a lacie external firewire harddrive. I had
previously downloaded backup 3.0 from .Mac. When I create a backup
plan everything seems to work until the end when I get an error
message "The backup archive is use and can't be ejected. Try
quitting applications and try again." Underneath are "Force
Eject", "Stop Entire Backup" and "Try Again". I have tried all
suggestions and nothing works. I have quit applications, rebooted
and checked the Lacie online manual and cant figure out the issue.
I have drag and dropped individual docs to the harddrive and that
works ok. The manual seems to say I need to format the drive but I
don't believe it, in part because when I launch Disk Utility the
list of formats does not include mac os x list the manual says it
should. I have repaired permissions. Ideas?
