Anyone know how to repair a corrupted .DMG file? I recovered the file using Disk Drill. There are actually 4-6 files I have encrypted into a DMG - now they are back on my desktop (deleted them months ago) and the size is correct (between 500-900 MB each)

I deleted several .mov files a while back that were encrypted into a .dmg file. Using Disk Drill, I was able to recover 5 of these files, roughly 500-900 MB each and successfully moved them to my desktop. When I try to open the .dmg file, the dreaded error message "no mountable file systems" shows up. I have tried various fixes based on searches and none have worked. Are these files just corrupted and unreadable, or is there a way to fix?

Thanks for the obvious question. I mean it. The very same thought came to me this morning and, sure enough, I had booted into another drive--my old one that, of course, had the old desktop, etc.
It didn't dawn on me that this was the case since I hadn't set it as a boot drive but I guess in the course of all the restarts I did, it got switched.
I'm back to normal again.

    It's all or nothing. You can to selectively get notifications for one account and not the others. As for g-mail, how do you have it set up? If it's not set to poll automatically, or set up as push (as an Exchange account), then you won't be notified until you maually open the mail client and pull it down.

  • I bought my iPhone 5 three months ago and the charger is already not working. What should I do?

    I bought my iPhone 5 three months ago, it's new! And now when I connect it to the charger the following message appears "This cable or accessory is not certificated and may not work as a reliable mode at this iPhone", but it must be reliable! I bought it in a Apple store! What should I do?

    Bring it back to an Apple Store.

  • HT201401 I bought an iphone 4s less than six months ago and the sleep/wake button doesn't work because it got "stuck".

    I took my iphone to the nearest retail store in my country and they told me they could not help me becasue I had bought my phone in the U.S. Problem is, the phone is less than six months old and it is already presenting problems.

    The warranty is only good in the country of purchase.
    You would have to get the iphone back to the U.S then to an Apple Store

  • Is there a way to have my logic bard replaced for a cheaper price? My coverage finished a month ago and I was quoted 600 for that repair. Quite upset that my MacBook pro broke down a month after the coverage while during the year it had no issues at all.

    Has anyone been able to file a complaint and get something out of it? And how

    Hi Henry,
    Each situation is different. I recommend contacting Apple and discussing it with them in a calm manner.
    If the LB has to be replaced, ask about a "depot repair." In the US, it is a bit under $350 and they will usually fix everything that needs fixing. Note that your MBP needs to "qualify" for this repair, and only Apple can determine if it will.

  • Does anyone know how to repair IPHOTO when you get the aperture needs upgrading error?

    I just had my MACBook Pro repaired at the Genius Bar and I am still aving issues with IPHOTO.  When I try to open the application I get an error that states I need to upgrade to Aperature 3.3.  I have never had this.  They installed OS X Mavericks.  Could this be why I am getting this error?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • HT1766 I purchased an Iphone 4 approximately 2 months ago and the touch screen is not responding and is not letting me type etc.  Has anyone else had this problem?  I have restarted the phone and it didn't help.  :-(

    I am having issues with my iphone 4 touch screen, I can't do anything with it.  I even have a hard time sliding the bar accross to accept calls.  Has anyone else experienced this?  I only have the phone 2 months.

    I've not experienced this.  But I do appreciate your asking.
    Did you want help with your technical issue?  If so, why don't you ask.  Also state what troubleshooting steps you've taken.

  • I broke my screen about a month ago and the iPod was fine until yesterday when it turned off and wouldn't turn on and the screen gets slightly lighter help

    MY iPod broke help

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable              
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. I suspect whatever caused the broken screen progressed.

  • Read out loud does not work on Adobe Reader XI.  Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

    Does anyone know how to repair the Read Out Loud problem with Adobe Reader XI?

    Hi thomash,
    Are you running into this problem with all PDFs, or just a select few? If the PDF was created from a scan, and OCR wasn't performed (so there's no "live" text), then there wouldn't be anything to read aloud.
    If the issue occurs regardless of the PDF you have open, has anything changed on your system since Read Out Loud worked for you?
    Best,
    Sara

  • HT5278 I lost a screen after this update, does anyone know how to fix this?

    I lost a screen after this update, does anyone know how to fix this?  Update iOS 5.1.1  It used to have three screens with icons on them, now only 1.

    No offence, but as with quite a few others, my Iphone stopped charging on mains after iOS 7.0.4 update too.
    Not sure you can categorically advise that "it simply is not a software issue" when so many different people are having the same symptoms after updating their iOS   Just have a quick Google!
    Luckily my (original Apple) cable will still allow recharging via USB to a laptop. So, process of elimination would point to a bricked charger that was working faultlessly up until the iOS 7.0.4 update was applied. Seems quite a stretch to be a coincidence.
    Look forward to an explanation ..... and an update? ......
