I have an iomega external hard drive, or mass storage device. It was working fine and the blue light is still on, however my computer cant see the files. The USB port is working, I tried unistalling the driver and reinstalling, that did not work.

Try it on another computer and try another USB cable. USB drives frequently break due to the nature of their use, it's possible that either the USB part for the enclosure has failed/broken or the the internal drive has failed or broken. If you want the data off it or want to attempt to salvage it and not worried about warranty then you can disassemble the unit and remove the drive and try the drive internally in a computer, it's just a SATA drive inside, or attempt to use it with another enclosure and hope the drive is not dead.
