Restoring data from a mac flash drive
Restoring data from a flash drive on a Mac can be a fairly simple process if you follow a few steps. Here are some recommendations:
1. Connect the flash drive to the Mac computer and make sure that it is recognized by the system.
2. Open the "Disk Utility" program, which can be found in the "Utilities" folder (Applications > Utilities).
3. Select your flash drive from the list of available drives on the left in the Disk Utility window.
4. Click the "Check disk" button. This will help determine any errors or damage to the file system on your flash drive.
5a) If the program detects any problems, select your flash card and click the "Repair" button to correct these errors.
5b) If the check was completed successfully without detecting any errors, proceed to the next step.
6. To start the data recovery process from the deleted/removed partition(s), use specialized software for mac - Disk Drill for macOS X
7a) First, after downloading the free version from the official website, install the program on your Mac.
7b) Start Disk Drill and select a flash drive from the list of available drives.
8a) Press the "Scan" button to start the process of scanning your flash drive in search of deleted files.
8b) After the scan is complete, the program will show a list of found files that can be restored.
9. Select the desired files or folders to restore and click the "Restore" button. Please note that the free version may not always fully open all data (but it is better than it will cost).
10. Save all successfully obtained results on another drive/disk(s) to prevent possible overwriting of data when working with old information.
Please remember: The faster you start recovery, the more chances your file will be saved intact!
