• Cannot restore the files from hard drive damaged in disk utility

  Questions

  1. can I save my files/fix this problem without having to restore via disk utility?

  2. What am I doing wrong / I can do to restore correctly on an external hard drive via disk utility?

  Background

  Last week when I turned my MacBook Pro 2012 I got stuck on the gray login screen. The progress bar moves very, very slowly and when he finished my laptop spontaneously restarted and repeated the same thing over and over again. Here's what I tried to do so far:

  -Start in SafeMode: does not work

  -Extended Apple Diagnostics/Apple Hardware Test: test results: no problem found

  -Utility (recovery and valorisation of the Internet) disk: disk hard Mac (Apple HDD) and Recovery (partition) HD are not damaged, but the partition disk0s2 is (created after a failure; a year not logged - if it matters) and in 'check' and 'fix' the latter I get inconsistent error messages.

  Disk utility error messages

  Most often, I get this error:

  The volume disk0s2 was found damaged and must be repaired. Error: This disc needs to be repaired. Click on the ERD.

  Stopped disk utility check "disk0s2."

  Disk0s2 volume could not be repaired after 3 attempts.

  Error: Disk utility can't repair the disk. Save as many files as possible, reformat the drive and restore your files packed around the top.

  I also received this error message once:

  Wrong number of extended attributes (it should be 730585 instead of 730589)

  Wrong number of access control lists (there are 1364 instead of 1368)

  Save the files to external hard drive?

  Before that I didn't even used/accessed Time Machine.  I have a new HDD external, formatted for Mac. I created two partitions: backup and Time Machine (so I can start using it once I have find this current issue). When I try to restore disk0s2 external hard disk I get an error restore failed (252 or 254, I think).

  When you drive is damaged, it is extremely difficult to make progress.

  I recommend the lessee a spare drive in an external enclosure and install MacOS on it again. Then boot from that and you are back in business. You can use the full power of Mac OS AND additional utilities to recover your files.

  More 350 000 files on your damaged disc are Mac OS - and those that can be installed in replicas of prefect by a new installation on a new drive. You can't Brute force 'all' copy of a damaged disc. What you want back damaged drive is not Mac OS X files - you want YOUR files. They are stored in the Directory/users in a folder with your short user name. with additional utilities, you can simply copy this directory, or use a recovery as data rescue program to get individual files.

• I restored my files Carbonite - or thought I did - but they can't are not there - I thought I found the right file - please help! The steps did not work!

  I thought I found the right file to restore my files of Thunderbird for... or so I thought... This is the file with 8 random characters...
  Anyway, the tech of Carbonite had restored the files in a folder on my desktop. I copied the file and paste this file to Thunderbird.
  As the files are being restored, the system I warned that thousands of files were the same... I said to replace.
  I deleted my profile e-mail and closed before Thunderbird I did all that. Then I returned to my email account. But the restored files aren't there. Only my Inbox since the transfer. No old emails, no record, no contacts...
  I don't understand what I am doing wrong?

  Just wonder if you copied it into your profile as a subfolder or if it replaced your profile?
  How did you create your backup?
  What is a full copy, a partial copy or a compressed copy (zip)?
  You copied to "C:\Users\Regina\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\9k2py1g1" which, you profile should have ended .default
  I guess it was a typing error in.

  Only if your 'Thunderbird restore' was a complete copy or if you develop a one zip

  For not to destroy anything try:

  • Rename your old profile fx 'X9k2py1g1. Default X"or move.
  • Copy your "Restore Thunderbird" (I think that it contains a folder with subfolders 9k2p1g1.default) so C:\Users\Regina\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles contains a new 9k2p1g1.default

  Try restarting Tbird

  If you add the .json extension, it works then? Why people who design browsers or extensions them do create files with no extension name, in spite that these extension names are essential to make the files can be restored? I could never understand that.

  Do you still have the MBP? If so you can manually copy and paste the files you need.

  If you do not have the pro more, you need to buy a USB key and plug it into the MBA... use it as a target. Once you have a system file of the previous laptop again, you have to manually choose what to copy across.

• Restore specific files of Time Machine on El Capitan

  Hello

  I want to restore specific files from a Time Machine after then reinstalling OS.

  In Time Machine that only highlight the buttons front and rear back 1 week and the sidebar, but it develops, is RED and is unclickable. I can find files by searching for them but I want to restore all of my documents and specific applications to try to remember all is not practical. The sidebar being red means it's inaccessible and if not, how can I access content on specific date, the function used to work in Yosemite and back ups I'm looking are El Capitan so don't know why I can't access it. Thank you.

  Time Machine, please press the shift-command-C key combination. The windshield will show the mounted volumes. All snapshots should now be accessible. Select the one you want and search for files to restore.

  If you need to restore from a backup of the hidden user library folder, first select a snapshot, and then press shift-command-G. A go to the folder dialog box opens. In this document, you enter the path to the folder. The dialog box will help you by automatically filling parts of the path when you start typing.

  The path starts with the slash character ("/"). Enter that. The rest of the parts is separated by slashes.

  The next part is the date and time of the current snapshot. Enter a '2', and the rest of the date should be filled in automatically. Press the right arrow key to access the end of the path. Enter a slash to start the next game.

  Next is the volume name (usually "Macintosh HD" unless you assigned a different name.) Start typing, then jump to the end and enter a slash.

  The next part is 'Users', followed by a slash.

  Then is your short user name. It is also the name of your home folder, which is represented by an icon of the House in the sidebar of a Finder window.

  Finally, enter "Library", and then press return. You should now be in the library folder. From there, you can move like in the Finder. You can also select another snapshot of the same folder.

  Hi Hector.

  1. what version of Windows operating system is installed on your computer?

  2. you use software to perform the system backup and restore?

  3 is the issue limited to any particular file?

  First of all, I suggest you click with the right button on the backup files and check the size of the file in the Properties window.

  Try to copy and paste the files to the computer and check if you are able to access the files.

  You can also check if the folders are hidden. If the folders are hidden, so you can view folders and check if you are able to access the data.

  1. press the ALT key on the keyboard in any Windows Explorer window to display the toolbar.
  2. click on tools, then Options of folders, and then on the view tab.
  3. then choose "show files and folders". After clicking OK, they appear with the other files.

  Hope that the information provided is useful.

• System Restore (with backup) for Windows XP how to restore the files from here?

  I saw the other posts for this but they have not answered the question. When I look in the C drive, and open the folder backup (backup C:\My--01/12/23 1134 AM), my photos, videos and documents are not available or are invisisble. When I tried to make hidden files visible, all my desktop icons and all the Start Menu program buttons disappear. I can see the files when I search with a software such as jdiskreport - 1.4.0, but I'm unable to move with this program. When I tried to move them with jdisk... they is locked in the tree of files of jdiskreport. Whenever these trees of missing or file icons has locked, I had to restore to the good previous restore point. In my view, the full restoration of the system (with backup) fails and should be avoided at all costs.

  So, if someone knows a way to access these files, I would appreciate the help of course. And please, no answers don't like "cannot not you just copy and paste?" because it is not currently a solution until the files are visible without erasing my desktop and the Start Menu.

  Copy files from a CD-ROM to a hard drive

  To copy files from a CD-ROM to a hard disk:

  1. If you already have a folder on your hard disk to contain the files from your CD-ROM, note the full path to your folder (for example, C:\Pictures, D:\Images, and so on) and proceed to step 2. If you do not have a folder for your files, create a new folder:
     1. Click Start, point to programs, and then click Windows Explorer.
     2. Click on the hard drive to contain the new folder. On the file menu, point to new, and then click folder.
     3. Type a descriptive name for your folder and press ENTER. For example, if you want to copy the image files on your hard drive, you can name the folder images, Images or another descriptive name. Note the full path to your folder (for example, C:\Pictures, D:\Images, and so on) and then close Windows Explorer.
  2. Click Start, point to programs, and then click MS-DOS prompt.
  3. At the command prompt, navigate to the CD-ROM drive, and then navigate to the folder that contains the files to be copied. For example, if you want to copy the files in the folder of the drivers on the Windows 98 CD-ROM and your CD-ROM drive is drive D, type the following commands, pressing ENTER after each command:
     d:
     cd\
     Drivers CD
  4. Copy the files from the source to the CD folder in the folder on your hard drive. To continue the previous example, if your source folder is the folder of the drivers on the Windows 98 CD-ROM, your CD-ROM drive is drive D and you want to copy files to the C:\Drivers folder, type the following commands, pressing ENTER after each command:
     Copy *. * c:\drivers
     output

• Need help with manual XP restore point files to copy

  Hello

  I have a Sony VAIO VGC-RB40 with XP SP3 Desktop installed.  I had a module of RAM go bad and it crashed my system.  I pulled the bad RAM and am able to boot into Windows, but there are some things corrupt as I can not drag and drop, IE does not work, some functions of the system are tangled Windows, etc..   More important still, System Restore does not in my current state, so I can't go back to a previous good restore point.  I backed up my important data, but I'm trying to restore my system back again without wiping everything and start again.  Have followed instructions to manually copy the files to restore to a previous good point point to work around this problem, I'm stuck.  An example of instructions I'm following are here: http://www.aitechsolutions.net/winxpnoboot.html

  At this point, I have all of the necessary registry hive files from a copied previous good restore point in a temp directory ready to crush the current (bad) registry files, but ran into several problems:

  (1) no XP Recovery Console - I need to start a prompt to copy the files to restore onto they're blocked if you're on Windows, but I do not have RC installed since my XP Sony came pre-installed.  All I have is a recovery disc I made which does not let me do anything except wipe my drive and re - install or fix some applications only.  So I downloaded an iso file from XP RC online and made a boot disk that works very well.  Problem is that it doesn't let me recognize my SATA Western Digital C drive:-I see only H:\Minint available through RC, which does not help me.  My understanding is that I need to have the SATA driver files available to use F6 to load these at startup RC so that it recognizes the C: drive.

  (2) so I tried to find the drivers to copy on a diskette to use F6 to install the necessary files, I need to recognize the drive within the RC, but I had no chance.  My Sony has the driver chipset Intel 915 G/P/GV v. 6.0.0.0.1014 and I went on the Sony website but the download is for an installer automatically installs the original drivers that I don't want to do.  I want just the files so I can copy them to a floppy disk.  I also looked on my hard drive and found a directory of the Intel driver then I copied all the files on a diskette in the hope that he would.  But when I tried F6, it says to a file "txtsetup.oem" that isn't there.  He may miss some INF files as well, I'm not sure.  So basically, I still can't boot from the drive RC and recognize my C: to copy the restore point files.

  (3) I also watched my BIOS to see if I can change a setting to enable the SATA drive being recognized as IDE, by some suggestions, I found online.  Problem is my BIOS settings do not seem to have any compatibility option, at least, I don't see one.  When I choose my WD200JD-98HBC0 drive in the BIOS, the 5 options are: LBA/large Mode, block Mode and PIO Mode, Mode DMA S.M.A.R.T.  The first 2 have only choices Auto / disabled.  PIO mode is Auto/0/1/2/3/4 options that I don't understand.  DMA mode has a lot of options, I do not understand.  So unless there is a setting here allows me to have my C: recognized on startup through the RC disk, I don't know?

  (4) my last idea unless someone can help me understand how to recognize my C: is if I remove the disc from my office and put in a USB enclosure and connect it to my laptop.  Then from there, peux I just manually copy these files over to the windows/system32 folder?  Which is equivalent to boot the system through RC and to do or is there something I'm missing here?  It seems the same to me, as long as I can access those bad registry files and overwrite them with 'good', isn't that do the same thing?

  Suggestions of other ways that I can restore my system would be appreciated!  If I can just do an XP repair which would also work, but still I am not sure that my Sony recovery disk allows me to do this?

  Thank you
  Shawn

  As I read, what you're asking for basically is a way to start your machine so that you can move the files on it to try to repair.  Instead of using a Recovery Console, try to create a free "Hirens Boot CD"
  Hirens Boot CD: <> http://www.hirensbootcd.org/ >
  You can start your machine of this and should be able to move the files.  I am not absolutely certain that it handles the SATA drives, but I could not find a machine yet it wouldn't start and access hard drive.  Choose "Mini Windows XP" on the first screen.  It focuses on the windows in order to run a Chkdsk on your hard disk (recommended) in addition to move the files.

  Another alternative is to boot your machine from a free Linux Live CD like Knoppix or Ubuntu.
  Knoppix <> http://www.knoppix.net/ >
  Ubuntu <> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download >
  If you choose Ubuntu, don't forget that it is an installation disc and you * not * to install.  Choose the option "Try Me" instead.  One of these you will start to Linux and to recognize certainly your SATA drive.  This will allow to move the files, but will not perform a repair disk.  Be careful about editing text files as Linux uses an end of line character different than Windows.

  HTH,
