HT1338 How do I retrieve documents off of a jump drive?

I am trying to get my husbands resume off of his jump drive.  I plug in the drive and nothing happens.

Choose "Computer" from the Go menu in Finder.
Does it show up there?
If it does, but doesn't show up anywhere else, check the Finder Preferneces, Sidebar and General.
Check the boxes to show External Disks where you want them.
If it doesn't show up there, open System Information by holding down the Option (alt) key and select it from the Apple menu.
Select USB from the Hardware section and see if it shows up on one of the busses.
Also, what do you mean by "jump drive?" I've seen that term used for various things, from flash memory sticks to portable hard drives. If you are describing a portable hard drive, that might factor into the issue.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Your question is a little unclear, however if you mean how can you retrieve documents you have created on your iOS device on your Mac, then you need to download them at iCloud.com using the web browser (Safari or similar) on your mac.

    how do i retrieve data from my external hard drive?

    If your hard drive can be detected and shows up as a drive letter in my computer but you can't access your files,then you can recover your data off it with data recovery software easily.This way is the easiest and the most inexpensive way to recover your data.If you bring it to a computer repair shop that is available for data recovery servise,they will cost you $500-1000 or more.Hmm, a lot of money.
    I managed to recover data from crashed hard drive with Tenorshare Data Recovery.If needed,you can download it and scan your hard drive for free to preview whether your data can be recovered.It will show you thumbnails for recoverable pictures.

  • How do I Retrieve imovie projects from and external drive back into my mac internal drive

    How do I Retrieve imovie projects from and external drive back into my mac internal drive?
    Thank You

    Every working drive, Internal or External, should produce an Icon on your Desktop. If you cannot see those, click on the Desktop (to get Finder) and choose Preferences off the Finder Menu. The general pane has checkboxes for "Show these items on the Desktop:"
    Double click the Icon for your External Drive to open it. Open the folders on it until you find the Items you want to copy. Drag them to the Icon of your Internal Drive, or open the folder where you want them to land and drop them in there.
    A drive that does not appear on the desktop after you have asked it to may be damaged. But it would be smart to do a Restart to see if it is recognized again at next Startup.

    iwork on iOS uses different file extensions and formats (*.tef )  then iwork for Mac (*.number,*.key*.page) . It needs to be converted all the times so that the different apps can deal with the content of the documents.

    I have just gotten an iPad and want to use it to retrieve documents already created on my MacBook Pro and stored in iCloud. I have set up the iCloud account on my iPad and turned on Documents & Data in Settings. How do I login to iCloud from my iPad and retrieve a stored document?

    You would need to use an app to do so, such as one of the ones mentioned here: http://meetingpool.net/blog/2013/06/17/six-apps-to-view-and-edit-office-document s-on-iphone-and-ipad/, but I'm not sure which, if any, can access documents stored in iCloud.
    I personally just use a free Dropbox account to access Office documents.  You can upload them to your Dropbox account, then view them from within the free Dropbox app on your iPad.

  • How do I retrieve my data from external hard drive?

    I have tried to search for an answer to this, but have yet to do so and really getting freaked out...
    I had to take my iBook to the Genius Bar today to have everything wiped out and reinstalled due to some issues I was having. I wasn't worried because I had (or thought I did) everything on my SmartDisk Firewire 40 external hard drive.
    Now I cannot figure out how retrieve my applications, documents and files! I open Firewire, and I can see when all my backups occurred but I have no idea how to retrieve them. I tried dragging a file to my desktop and that got me nowhere...PLEASE help! I'm not sure what to do.

    How did you copy the things onto the external drive in the first place? To some extent this will affect recommendations to get things back onto your drive. For example, all of my backups are done with a cloning application, so the get everything back I would boot from my external drive and then clone everything back. If you didn't clone then it doesn't make sense to clone back. If all you did was drag files over then you can just drag them back. Note that some things use hidden files that may not have been copied over if all you did was drag, and those files are now gone and may have to have the application reinstalled from the installer disc.
    If you used some backup program to do the backups then that program probably has a restore feature. That can vary greatly from program to program and may require somebody who knows the specifics of the program used.

  • How do I get info off my iMac hard drive now that it's out of the computer?

    I was in a car accident recently. I'm okay, but I'm afraid my iMac did not survive. Before taking it to the insurance company to drop off the computer for reimbursement, I brought my computer to my local Apple Store to see if they could extract the data from the hard drive. (I've had this thing for years, so one can see that I would like to have what's on it.)
    The Apple Store regretfully told me that they did not do this type of work and referred me to a nearby tech store that specialized in extracting data. I went there and they quoted me $80 for the hard drive's physical extraction and then another $30 for the information to be transferred onto a USB drive (or the equivalent). I was called a day later to be told that the mission was impossible, but I could go somewhere else that would charge me $1699 without tax and without a guarantee that they could actually perform the job.
    Let's face it - that's a lot of money.
    I went home and researched how to get my hard drive out of the computer and did so without much hassle. I've since then turned in the other parts to the insurance company as they were broken and useless.
    Now I have a hard drive sitting on my counter without any idea how to get the information off and onto an external storage unit. Is there any way I can get the data myself?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

    Whether or not you are able to recover the data off the drive yourself will depend on if the drive suffered any impact damage in the crash. You can buy USB SATA or IDE adapters (Intel and almost all G5 use SATA) that will let you connect your hard drive to a computer (like a flash drive) to see if you can recover the data. If the drive has suffered physical damage if may not mount.
    If you know someone who has one of these adapters you could try using theirs, otherwise you could buy one but you take the risk of the data on the drive being non recoverable. Regardless, both are much cheaper than $1699!
    (Alternatively, if you know of someone with a Mac Pro or PowerMac G5 they may be able to install the drive in their machine and try to boot from or mount it and copy the data off.)
