Looking for a way to force failed disk to mount ??

I have approx. 450GB of files saved to the disk of my 2TB Time Capsule which suddenly failed and will not mount the internal TC disk.
** I am not talking about Time Machine backups in anyway — I am talking about files + folders of all kinds which I manually saved to the disk. I have no backup for these files. **
I do have an empty 500GB external drive I can archive the files to — however, because I can not get the TC to mount — I cannot archive or copy the files.
I'm looking for any suggestions/workarounds that you may have to help me access these files + force this disk to mount.
Disk Utility / Tech Tool etc. obviously don't work because the disk is not even listed there.
Terminal command ?
Manually remove the disk from the TC hardware + mount another way ?
How would a company like *Drive Savers* do this?

If the drive does not appear in DU, then it is not accessible. You could try using recovery software that may be able to access the drive:
General File Recovery
If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten with recovery software such as Data Rescue II, File Salvage or TechTool Pro. Each of the preceding come on bootable CDs to enable usage without risk of writing more data to the hard drive.
The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.
Also visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on Data Recovery.
If the drive's motor has failed (You can't hear or feel any motor vibration directly from the drive) they it's definitely not recoverable. You would have to use a data recovery service in this case.

  • Looking for best way to filter status or meter data from differently formatted text.

    With the product we design we are able to communicate via RS-232 ports. What I'm trying to do is filter out the data that is given by multiple differnt types of products that will give similar data back, but in a differnt format. Such that in a status command I'm looking for everything to be in a non failed state. But some items will show warning, failure, #.##w(for warning), or #.##f (for fail). But the format of each product is different. Also for a meter command I'm looking for a way to filter out just the numeric value for each phase amplitude, but once again the format will be different for each product. I have been able to pull this data out easy enough for an individual product but not on a wide product range with the same VI.

  • Looking for a way to broadcast a line in to the Airpot Express?

    Looking for a way to run line input into my macbook and broadcast it to the Airport Express to Play on my Stereo..

    It is discussed on the xfce forums but unfortunately that solution requires editing by hand. However it does seem relatively easy to automate. Writing a graphical program for those tasks is something you'd only have to do once.

  • Looking for a way to Export Still Image to iPhoto

    Hi I'm looking for a way to export a still image from iMovie 08 to iPhoto 08? The simple drag, help, web search etc doesn't seem to come up with an answer but it's been a long day.
    Thanks

    Find the still within an event clip, right mouse, select add still frame to project. Repeat for all the stills you want.
    In Finder under pictures, you should find files for all the stills you created. Import them into Iphoto and there you have it.
    There is probably an easier way but this is not too bad.

  • Looking for a way to switch views using Javascript

    Hi ! I'm currently studying Acrobat 3D. <br /><br />I've got a PDF document with a 3D Annotation, which was imported from a U3D file. I defined 3 views : "initial", "front" and "top".<br /><br />My problem is that I'm looking for a way to switch views using Javascript. <br /><br />In fact, when I list cameras using the following code, I only get one camera called "DefaultView". So my question is : where has my "initial", "front" and "top" views been ? Is there a way I can switch between them using Javascript ?<br /><br />for(i=1;i<scene.cameras.count;++i)<br />     {<br />          Cam = scene.cameras.getByIndex(i);<br />          <br />          console.println("camera " + i + " : " + Cam.name);<br />     }<br /><br />Thank you very much in advance.<br /><br />françois

    you are asking about Microsoft products and using a laptop, not a workstation Mac Pro.
    The Numbers and Pages Apple Communities. or MS Community if you want those.
    Importing and Exporting, but Numbers and Pages will not do a SAVE into other formats by default, and therefore have to keep using Export which is messy.

  • Looking for a way to export full Popularity Trends data

    Greetings!
    I'm looking for a way to access all "popularity trends" data for a SharePoint 2013 publishing site in one place. I'm probably missing something pretty basic here, (I hope), but it seems if I pull up popularity trends for the site, all I get is
    the hits & unique users for the site as a whole. If I go into my pages library and choose "Most Popular Items," I'm given a search results page that I can't run reports from. And if I select the "popularity trends" link under one of
    those search results, I get a usage report for a single, specific page.
    I've thought about doing a multi-select of pages from my site's Pages library, but I have more than 100 pages in the site, so I still can't get at everything all at once. Plus, the resulting usage.xlsx file just includes a lot of  reports on individual
    pages.
    There's got to be something more all-encompassing than this...right?
    Help!

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to see the all popularity trends data for a site.
    Where did you export the usage report?
    Did you export the report from  Popularity and Search Reports?
    To view the Popularity Trends report for a site collection
    Verify that the user account that is performing this procedure is a member of the Owners group.
    In the site collection, on the Settings menu, click Site ettings.
    On the Site Settings page, in the Site Collection Administration section, click Popularity and Search      Reports.
    On the View Usage Reports page, in the Usage Reports section,  click Usage.
    In the message box, click Open to open the report in Excel, or  click Save or Save as to save the  report.
    Click the tabs to view the usage report for the different usage event types.

  • Looking for a way to create/edit a newsletter online, then be able to generate a customized PDF file

    I am looking for a way to be able to customize a newsletter online, then be able to export/generate a PDF file from that newsletter.
    Basically this is for a friend that is a real estate agent, and currently she is creating the newsletters in MS Publisher. I'm hoping to find a way to be able to allow her to login to a secure area of her webpage(that part isn't a problem) but then be able to create/customize a monthly newsletter that needs to be customizable.
    For example, the August Newsletter will be 2-sided, and most of the newsletter will be the same, but she needs to be able to have a newsletter for different apartment buildings so the customers can just go to their building link/area on the webpage and be able to download that month's custom PDF file that has a portion of the main newsletter that is a table/list of properties for that specific location.  The data will be stored in a database.
    After writing the above, I can probably create a front-end to the database so she can enter everything that way, but I still need a way for her to generate the customized PDFs after she is done with that month's data.
    I was hoping Adobe had something that could be used, or am I stuck using php or Javascript and just doing this with custom scripting?
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks!

    I think you will have to do the latter.  While you are thinking about writing the PDF file, don't overlook fpdf (google it)....

    Daniel.AFAIK, a string of text does not have an (x,y) location inside a PDF file. The location is exists on your screen, and will differ whenever you adjust the resolution of it. Text can have a location when it's stored as an image though, but than it's really the location of a certain number of pixels (not necessarily a string!).

  • Looking for automated way to test print PnP printer after install then delete

    At times we test 20 to 30 printers in a day. I am looking for automated ways to increase the efficiency of this. I would like to simply have the printer install using PnP print a test page then delete itself after the test page or on removal. Are there any settings that can be changed on the computer to change the PnP process to make this possible. I am currently trying to learn and understand the Plug and play process so that I may find out how to get started. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    I spent all day Googling and doing side by side comparisons of my old and new systems.
    My display is a Dell U2410. It has several presets, including sRGB and Adobe RGB. I've been using sRGB.
    On my OLD system, (Win XP, PsCS2, DwCS4) there seems to be no distinction between color managed and non color managed apps, even on this wide gamut display. I could capture (digital camera) in Adobe RGB, open and edit in PsCS2, save as .psd, convert to CMYK for print, or convert to sRGB for SFW. All images looked identical and they printed and displayed perfectly. I thought this was normal, and seemed logical. This also seems to be the source of my incorrect assumptions. I was trying to get my new machine to behave like my old one.
    So I get this new machine (Windows 7, PsCS5, DwCS5) and now (still in sRGB display mode) all color managed apps appear de-saturated. Non color managed apps are OK. If I switch the display to Adobe RGB, color managed apps are OK, but non color managed apps are way too saturated. From my investigation, I believe this is normal behavior on a wide gamut display. I've tried changing the Control Panel > Display > Screen Resolution > Advanced settings > Color Management options, but to no avail. Either I'm missing something, or Windows 7 is doing color management differently.
    It seems my only option now is to use Adobe RGB display setting for Ps, etc. and switch to sRGB for Dw and non color managed apps. Or, have 2 separate files for print and web. I've Googled 'til my eyes are numb and still not sure I'm getting this. Any enlightenment would be greatly appreciated.
    Finally, I don't see an edit function here, so I can't remove my previous incorrect reply. Moderator, please feel free to do so.
    Thanks

  • Looking for a way to programmatically set the visible portion of the front panel when a subVI opens

    I am looking for a way to programmatically set the visible portion of the front panel when a subVI opens.  Haven't found any posts that relate, but I'm not sure how to ask the right question.  To be clear, I want to write a helper VI to go through a list of subVIs to make sure the background images are all in the same place when their respective subVIs open.  I hate manually playing with scroll bars before I save each of the VIs...  I'm figuring I need to find the top/left location of the background image (know how to do this already) and then set a VI FP property to  these values or some offset, but I can't find the relevant property. FP:run-timeposition:custom looked promissing, but only affects the location of the window, not the area of the front panel the window is displaying.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Cool.  Getting closer.  The way I implemented your suggestion affects the subVI only if it is open.  I can use this to do what I'm after, perhaps putting the code into each subVI.  Maybe open all subs, run the helper, and save.    Seems like I'm missing the elegant version...
