Mac hard disk can get damaged due to a number of reasons like application or system crash, hard reboot, power surges, hard drive failure, failure of application installers used to resent system permissions, virus attacks, disk initialization and improper system shutdown. Temporary or permanent data loss can be averted with proper Mac data recovery methods. A common Mac recovery technique is explained below:
Right-click (or hold down CONTROL and click) the damaged Mac PC that you want to recover the data from, and then click Show Package Contents.
The hard disk drive image holds all the files and programs for a virtual machine.
Right-click (or hold down CONTROL and click) the hard disk drive image file.
Note: By default, the hard disk drive image file is labeled with the operating system name unless you specified something else when you created it during the guest PC setup.
Click Copy HardDriveName.
Right-click (or hold down CONTROL and click) the Mac desktop, and then click Paste item.
Create a new folder on the Mac hard disk drive where you want to store the recovered data, and then name the folder say, Recovery.
