Hi friends I have recently faced severe data loss situation in my mac machine, it has HFS+ file system There are lot of mac file recovery software’s available in the market I just want to know which one is the best suited for me.
Stellar Phoenix Macintosh Data Recovery ( v 4.0 ) this is software for the data recovery for mac
you can use this software for data recovery
I’ve a presentation tomorrow in which I have to tell how a data recovery software works in a nutshell. How it traverses through HD, how it judges whether the data is a complete file or Allocation Table….? How it tells what’s the file extension? etc
Plz tell if you have relevant information… best answer gets 10 points!
My friend its a very big process to explain how recovery data software works.But one thing i know that when data is lost it can be recovered by data recovery services. One of my friend use the data recovery service to recovery his lost data fro http://www.recovermypc.com/

A few years ago I deleted photos from a time in my life that I THOUGHT I wanted to forget. Now that I’m a little older, it would be nice to have photos to remember that time in my life. I’m thinking about buying a software recovery program but I’m not sure how far back they typically go on my hard drive. Any advice?
Update:
The data recovery software worked like a charm. I ended up using File Scavenger and was able to find my old files…plus many, many more! Thanks.
Physical time has nothing to do with it. It all depends on if the space those pix were on have been over-written or not.
When you delete something it is kind of pushed aside by the hard drive until that space is needed again, then it gets over-written by other data. You might try a free recovery software first. Here’s a link you can check out for recovery software.

Someone I know just lost all of their pictures and music after a formatting their computer (they had a virus). What is the very best software to get pictures and music back after a format and a fresh install of Windows 7??? It does not have to be free, or fast, we just need it to get all of the pictures and music back. Thank you!!
Thank you for the fast answers!! I will look into both. Does anyone else have any experience with some of the recovery software?
You will need to recover the data using something like asoftech photo recovery. http://www.asoftech.com/apr/
I’ve had to use it many times in the past but it will require that you plug that drive into another system as a slave and run the software from there. It will rebuild the drive and hopefully recover the pst file. There are no guarantees but i think the software will work for free until the stage that you want to recover. So at least you will know if it will work or not before you spend any money.
Good luck.
What is the most Powerful and the most extensive Video file recovery software for Mac? I need such a software to recover video files like Quick time movie, FCP, DVD Studio Pro etc. from a Lacie 250 GB Hard Disc which was formatted for PC by mistake?
File recovery is file recovery, there is no specific "video recovery" program.
I have used Data Rescue it works really well for recovering files. http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/system_disk_utilities/datarescue3.html
@Chris
Yes, with reformatting, the original file log/addresses are deleted. Data rescue can recover a limited amount of files by looking at the bytes left on the disk, unless the reformat overwrote the entire disk with zeros. So Data rescue will still work, it just will not be able to recover every kind of file.
I got my photos deleted accidently I tried to recover using data recovery software but I am not able to save those photos.
