How to back up files after a HARD disk failure internal?
My Macbook Pro (version 2012, obtained again a few months ago) could not start after getting in the middle of the loading screen and after trying to repair disk utilities, he told me that it is not repairable, and I need to save as many files as possible and try to reinstall the drive/operating system. I wasn't expecting a problem of this size so little time, so I didn't have a backup of my files either facts as it was not visible all the problems with my computer before he decided to break up after it sleep for a while. I have my external hard drive to transfer files, but when I try to use the function "restore" in the disc utilities (erasing files on my external drive and move my Mac HD here) it tells me that it is not a map of GPT partition on my external hard drive. I don't have a mac for the recovery target mode. I guess I might have to install OSX Yosemite on the external drive but how do I do this and how can I move my files (if possible) that him?
I have to save it as I have a lot of paid apps installed in my mac.
Thank you very much!
Sorry for the hearing that, I had the same problem when my SSD PCIE crashes and I know that his could be much more frustrating on the losses of personal data that the device already has simply malfunction, since your HARD disk drive starts rained and you do not another machine of Mac, try visiting the genius bar with your Mac and another external drive start your computer in target disk mode and use a thunderbolt cable connect to the genius bar test computer, if your internal drive seems to read, you know what to do then, if it is not or not yet readable and you still don't want to not give up your data, you might need to turn the player on recovering data from third-party company to disassemble your hard drive and do it for you , and the cost is usually higher than normally expected.
But you said that your attempt to return to your 'paid apps', I don't know which way you have those apps, but the property of an application generally belongs to your method of purchase (as your account), but not the machine. If you paid for apps for your Apple ID, you have them again in your Apple ID and able to re-download after that your Mac got repair, if you have Steam games, they will also with the account Steam, not a single Machine, so be sure the property type of the apps then all do next

'No' genuine copy of windows after a hard disk failure.
I have a 2 years old HP Pavilion G series and recently my hard drive has failed and could no longer boot to the top, so I bought a new hard drive and reinstalled windows using the drive of my friends and my original product key. (I don't have a disc of windows 7 because the computer did not come with one) Now, I get an error message that my copy is "not authentic" even if it's... What do I do?
Also, it did not help because there is no phone option...
' Try to activate again by phone:
Activate Windows 7 manually:
1. click on start and in the search for box type: slui.exe 42. press enter on your keyboard
3. Select your country.
4. Select the telephone activation option and brace yourself for a real person."
And whenever I try to activate, I get an error...
Thank you!
Hi Paul,.
This problem may occur if you perform a hardware important change to your computer, such as upgrading the hard disk. If a major hardware change requires activating Windows again, you will advise and will have three days to activate your copy of Windows.
Another common cause of failed Windows validation occurs when you try to install Windows on more computers than your license allows. For example, if you have purchased a copy of Windows, installed on the PC more than one online validation may fail because the product key has already been used on another computer. Normally, the rule for most copies of Windows is that only one copy of Windows can be installed on a PC. Go to Microsoft Volume Licensing to learn what your license allows.
Visit the link to contact Microsoft Customer Service and get another product key.
