Mac file recovery
Recovering files on a Mac can be a fairly simple process if you follow a few basic steps. Here are some tips for recovering lost or deleted files on your Mac:
1. Check the Trash: If you accidentally deleted some files, the first place to look for them is the Trash. Just open it by double-clicking the Recycle Bin icon on your desktop or find it in the Launchpad folder.
2. Use the Time Machine function: If you activated the automatic backup function of Time Machine before the file you need was deleted (and you had a connection to the disk), then you can use this option to restore it.
a) Press Command + Spacebar to bring up Spotlight Search.
b) Type “Time Machine” and select the application from the search results.
c) Open a Finder window with lists of all available time backups
d) Drag the file back to its location
3. Use third-party software:
If the previous methods did not work, you can use specialized software for data recovery on Mac. Some of the popular tools are Disk Drill, Data Rescue and EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard.
4. Turn to professionals:
If nothing else has helped or you are faced with a more serious problem (such as a damaged hard drive), it is best to seek help from professional data recovery services.
It is important to note that the sooner you start the file recovery procedure after deletion or loss, the more chances you have to get the data back without errors. Therefore, it is recommended to make regular backup copies of all your valuable files and use automatic systems of the hardware/application contingent.
