Getting Corrupted Data Off A Disc

I have a disc with a bunch of mpegs on it that run off the disc and work fine in compressor, but i need to put them onto my system. Problem is that my mac wont let me bring the files off the disc becuase it keeps saying they are corrupted wont let them continue to copy once it reaches the "corrupted" section. If there is any way to get the files onto my harddrive despite the error messages id love to know about it thanks in advance

If they will open and run, why not just open them and then do a Save as to a location on your hard drive?

  • I have a Mac Pro OS 10.7.5 and have a DVD+R disc with files on it, but it ejects the disk after about 10 seconds--what to do?  How can I get the data off this disc?  I can see it has been already burned, so files are on there?

    Try cleaning the lens and see if that will restore functionality to the DVD drive.  Use a DVD lens cleaning disk, if you have a can of compressed air, shoot some into the slot or wrap a fine microfiber cloth (eyeglasses cleaning cloth)  around a business card and insert it gently inside the slot.
    If no success, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar and get a free diagnosis from them.

  • Trying to get old data off a g4 tower

    Hi- I am trying to get old data off a g4 tower using macbook and firewire but I am not succeeding. My old monitor doesn't seem to work. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. I also have a Gdrive if that might work.

    Here's another method.
    Buy one of these hard drive adapters.

    Remove the hard drive from the G4. Using the above adapter, connect the drive to your MacBook. Copy the files you want.

  • TC 500GB died today - how do I get my data off of it?

    My TC has been working great until today when the power died.  Tried unplugging/plugging it back in, but still dead.  Currently I have it unplugged and will wait a few hours before I plug it back in hoping life will flow back into it.
    If not, how do I get my data off of it?
    SN: 6F914B92UJ

    Either remove the hard disk.. there are plenty of sites about replacing the hard disk in the TC.. if you do it carefully,, heating the rubber foot really hot with hair dryer or hot air gun,, then you can simply peel it back and undo the 10 small Philips head screws.. get a USB to sata converter at local computer store.. a bare one is less than $20.. a decent box might be $40..
    Or repair the TC.. in the end that is cheap.. you can get it repaired or do it yourself if you have a few clues.. and then sell it on ebay once you recover your data and wipe the drive. The repair is cheaper than sale price.
    Just type in google Time Capsule repair.

  • Can you get your data off of a broken iPhone 3gs?

    I dropped my iPhone 3gs and it broke apart. Took it to someone to fix it and it broke even worse. I was going to sell it to a company that would repair it and sell it. Before I do that I want to get all of my data off it...is there a way I can do this or am I just screwed?

    No, but unless the company you're selling it to has forensic methods of extracting the data, it's unlikely they can get at it either.  When they're done fixing it, there will be new parts and the phone will be wiped of data.
    If there is really sensitive data on the phone, and you're worried - best to take a sledge hammer to it, and call it a loss...

  • Questions on getting "other" data off ipad

    I have been reading the threads, but before I do a full restore I have a few questions.
    I have about 2GB of "other" space on my 8GB ipad 2 (OS 7 withou the latest patch). I need to get rid of it because I can't load the new OS and I have the ipad down to bare bones.
    Anyway, I was reading that "other" could be corrupted data or stuff that apps are using. I got rid of my photos. All I have is apps, and music plus the files I store in pages.
    1. How can I tell which apps are sucking up space?
    2. If I do a restore, will the corrupted data just come back from my MBP onto my ipad? I am backing up to the MBP and also syncing everything in icloud. This is where my brain gets lost because I don't understand where the bad data is being stored.
    Any thoughts or hints would be appreciated before I start doing neurosurgery.
    Thanks in advance!

    How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
    http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

  • How do i get the date off the photo?

    On my iPad the photos look great (no date appears), but when I email them or upload them to Facebook they get a date stamped on them.  Is this a setting I can change?  I don't want the date printed on the image- it ruins the whole picture:

    What app are you using? I don't see the option to add a date in my photos app, so it's likely that it's a setting in whatever photo app you're using.

  • Can't get corrupted song off ipod

    Hello! I've run into a problem with my ipod touch - there is a corrupted song that I cannot take off- I've tried almost everything! It's a duplicate (there are two of the same song in the list, and the corrupted one doesn't play at all). Not that big of a deal, but it's frustrating because there's no way to get rid of it. In iTunes, it does not show up on the list of songs "On This Ipod". Since I have iOS 6, there's no way to manually delete it. I even tried going into the settings and erasing all my music from the ipod, and even then it was still there (only one left). I suppose completely resetting the ipod would get rid of the song, but I'd really rather not do that. Any ideas?
    Thank you so much!
    (also, I haven't gotten a chance to update to 6.1 yet. Would that help at all?)

    Paul,
    next time you connect your iPod, switch the "hard disc use" on the iPod preferences in iTunes on. Then you might be able to copy them from the folder. If this doesn't work, search for some addons that enables you to copy data from your iPod back to the computer. You can find them here http://www.ipodsoft.com/ and here http://www.ilounge.com/index.php
    Hope this helps!
    All the best

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • How did my ex's gf get the data off my kid's iPhone 4s?

    The evil girlfriend of my ex says her computer "accidentally" downloaded all of the data from my daughter's iPhone 4s IOS7.  She claims to have just "run into" this weird file when she was looking for another photo on her computer. Cassidy says the phone was locked, and she had noticed the computer had an old version of itunes, which caused a pop up letting her know the version of Itunes was not compatible with her Iphone, and wouold need to update itunes in order to sync her iphone,  The evil step mother claims she had no idea the the information was downloading onto her computer, and she just "happened" to find this "big file" with Pictures, texts, notes etc.  I am appalled at the breach of basic human privacy.  I need to know what steps had to happen for her to accompish this, so I can get my ex to believe she did this on purpose, and try to make sure it doesn't happen again. Thanks

    Thanks!  I have to be really clear before I talk to my ex husband and his girlfriend. Is backing the phone up done with an old incompatable version of itunes, or is it done some other way. My daughter says his girlfriend's  version of itunes is so old it's not compatible with ios7.  I guess I need to know what she had to do to back up the phone, since she told me it was a surprise to find this file there, she didn't do anything, she said it must have been itunes. I am pretty computer savvy, I just don't know much about iphones.  I KNOW what she is telling me is ********, but she's such a liar,, and she has my ex completely bamboozled.  Cassidy will NEVER plug her phone into anyone else's computer again.  It is not cool for his girlfriend to spy on our daughter, and she has been doing this sort of crap for years, and he refuses believe her or anyone else.  Thanks for your help                                                                                                                                                                                  x                    

  • I have an old iMac (G4 power pc).  The monitor is dead and I'm wondering if I can hook up another monitor so I can get my data off of the iMac?

    My monitor died on the iMac.  I can see only shadows on the screen.  I have an external hard drive that I'd like to move my data to, but, obviously, cannot see anything on the monitor to get this done.  Any suggestions?  Can I hook up a windows laptop the the iMac and transfer the data that way?
    Thanks!

    Generally, no, but a few people have been able to. Doing so absolutely requires that the PC has a FireWire port and software such as MacDrive installed.

  • Is there a way of getting my data off my iPhone once it is already in recovery mode?

    I was updating to the new software and an error occured and put my iPhone into recovery mode, I then unplugged it and plugged it back in. Now all my songs etc. are still on itunes but my personal detials on itunes were gone when I plugged it back in and now it wants me to restore it. Is there anyway I can get my pictures etc. or have they already been deleted?

    Too late, you have to backup before the recovery.
