Ok, I am praying you are my new hero. I had been searching for a flash drive for the last 2 years that held the contents of my old computer. FINALLY found it this morning, and put it in. It was all intact, pressed the file I needed which was a .mov of my old reel, and when I played it got an error on Quicktime and then all of a sudden, I could not type on my computer (words were not appearing). Tried to put my flash drive in the trash to start again, but it was frozen, so had to restart my laptop. Started it again, and the File folder is listed on the Flash drive, but now all the contents are missing in it (including the one I desperately need!), so I know it must be in the -secret trash.- My laptop runs on Mavericks. You said in the video that you were to do a different thing for ones before Sierra - is that strategy the Data Drill? Because it seems on the video that was the second part of the Sierra+. Just want to make before I download Disk Drill to help me. Thank you for this, you have no idea how much this helps, especially in a crazy year. And if it is easier to DM or email me, please let me know.

Hi, I followed your video but unfortunately it wasn't what I was looking for. So please see if you could help me with my problem: Years ago, when Mac used to call its -Photo app- iPhoto, I had a worth of 5GB of valuable pics and videos, what I did was instead of dragging the files to my external hard drive, I dragged the icon said -iPhoto- and here where my problem started, the folder is showing its contain of 5GB, even at some point I could open the photo individually and read the name I previously gave it, but the photo or video is completely blank. Please help me retrieving my files if you could. PS: since then, I changed my MacBook Air but I kept the non-readable iPhoto folder on my external hard drive!

Hoping u can help me. I was using my USB flash key on a MacBook Air laptop. Opened a file from the USB key, then suddenly the USB key ejected. So I unplugged the flash key and plugged it back in. I tried to re-open the same file, but it got corrupted. Now that file is gone. Is there any way to fix or recover the corrupted file?

my usb won't load onto desktop, but I hear it connect to the thinkpad. The computer registers the device but doesn't load onto desktop.
I'm assuming in order for this program to work, the device has to mount onto desktop.
