File recovery

Re: File recovery

If it doesn't mount; what good any recovery software? If you have experience with the terminal it is sometimes possible to force an external drive mount. If you don't know terminal, find someone who does. Might this be a question for apple disability with them using a remote hookup to view you

There are several that will do this. Seeing AI is a decent one, but I don’t think you can save items in it though. Also, if you’re willing/able to shell out some money for it, Aira is a really good service that uses live agents to describe things around you, and you can ask the agents to take

Hello, I might have missed some of the discussion here, and so this might be a duplicate message. If you connect to a network drive using the command-K function, and then once it is connected you create an alias file of the volume, this should work as a way to not be connected at startup, but st
