    Disk Utility..

    You see in the shot below. I have TIme Machine partition..

    You want to erase that partition completely and every partition present on that disk by going erase (keep in mind that will completely wipe your drive)

    Then.. you click on the actual DRIVE like in the screen below:

    And you make ONE BIG partition and you select on the right Mac OS Extended (Journaled)..

    And then hit apply..

    Disk Utility will create a new empty, single full size partition and set it to be in HFS+ Journaled mode.

    You see.. your iOMEGA external drive might have additional partition where they keep those utility tools and recovery shit.. and Time Machine starts doing crap when you have more then 1 partition and it's not HFS+ Journaled.
