      Hello there. Thank you for reaching out to us. We're sorry to hear that you had compatibility issues with your LG AP70NS50 external optical drive and your computer. It's essential to ensure that the drive is compatible with your computer's operating system and hardware.

      Here are some steps you can take to address compatibility issues:

      Check System Requirements: Review the system requirements for the LG AP70NS50 and ensure they match your computer's specifications, including the operating system (Windows, macOS, etc.), available ports (USB, USB-C, etc.), and system architecture (32-bit or 64-bit).

      Update Drivers: Visit the LG website to see if there are updated drivers or firmware available for your external drive. Download and install any necessary updates to enhance compatibility.

      Test with Other Devices: If possible, try using the external drive with other computers or devices to rule out any issues specific to your computer.

      If you continue to experience compatibility problems, it may be helpful to contact LG customer support for assistance. They can provide guidance on how to address the issue or recommend alternative solutions.

      We apologize for any inconvenience you've encountered, and we appreciate your feedback. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we hope these suggestions help you address the compatibility issues with your LG external optical drive. ^Jolly LG
