Possible to recover .band file??

Hi,
I have deleted one external hard disc by mistake – including the project file of the best song I ever have composed. I could recover a lot of single files wizh "data rescueII", also a lot of single aiff audio files. Some of them include recordings of single instrument tracks.
My question is: Does anybody know if the project .band file can be recovered if all used aiff track files are available??
Thanks a lot for your help in advance
Miguel

Had you saved the image files at any time before the crash? If so, you can search your hard drive for them.
When Photoshop doesn't shut down properly, it retains very little. I've even seen a crash make PS wipe my preferences and other settings to their factory state.

Basics of File Recovery
Files in Trash
If you simply put files in the Trash you can restore them by opening the Trash (left-click on the Trash icon) and drag the files from the Trash to your Desktop or other desired location. OS X also provides a short-cut to undo the last item moved to the Trash -press COMMAND-Z.
If you empty the Trash the files are gone. If a program does an immediate delete rather than moving files to the Trash, then the files are gone. Recovery is possible but you must not allow any additional writes to the hard drive - shut it down. When files are deleted only the directory entries, not the files themselves, is modified. The space occupied by the files has been returned to the system as available for storage, but the files are still on the drive. Writing to the drive will then eventually overwrite the space once occupied by the deleted files in which case the files are lost permanently. Also if you save a file over an existing file of the same name, then the old file is overwritten and cannot be recovered.
General File Recovery
If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten by using 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. Two free alternatives are Disk Drill and TestDisk. Look for them and demos at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.
The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.

Is it possible to recover deleted files from the Microsoft Word app for iPhone? I am desperate.

Is it possible to recover deleted files from the Microsoft Word app for iPhone? I am desperate.

From the Microsoft Word app they say "Access Word documents from OneDrive, Dropbox, iCloud, OneDrive for Business, or SharePoint" so it sounds like you can specify where they are saved. However, my guess would be that the default will be OneDrive.

Is it possible to recover individual files from my Macbook Pro's HD even if it won't boot?

Recently, my Macbook Pro would slow down longer than usual as I was performing menial tasks, like internet surfing, and so I tried to clear the memory by restarting it. It only went up to a white screen from there, and when I turned it off by holding the power button and turned it back on, it would only boot up to the white screen with the Apple logo and a spinning wheel and progress bar below it.
Mine is a late-2011 13-in Macbook Pro running Mountain Lion. I've tried every way that I've found to try and repair the disk, like using Disk Utility to try and repair my HD (I get the message telling me to back up as many files as possible, then reformatting my hard drive), to "fsck"-ing (I get the messages "Incorrect block count for file live.4.indexPositions" and "disk0s2: I/O error"), and even to using Sungle-User mode to try and delete that "live.4.indexPositions" file (I get told that no such file exists).
I'm pretty much resigned to the fact that my only remaining option is to reformat my HD, but I was wondering if it was possible for me to maybe cut and paste some of my documents and pictures to an external HD before I reformatted because I don't have them anywhere else. Is it possible? I know I should've made a back-up before it all happened, but alas, my lack of a big-enough external HD rendered me un-cautious.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Your hard drive is broken and you can't erase it. The only option you have is to take it to a company that can recover your files from the hard disk, because you can't do anything with it.
If you want, you can try to take it out, put a new hard disk and install Mac OS X. Then, use a USB to SATA adapter to connect the old hard drive to your MacBook and try to recover your files, but probably you won't be able to access to the data

Is it possible to recover .fcp files from a reformatted drive?

Somehow — I still don't know exactly how this happened, but it appears to be my fault, and I feel like a complete moron for letting it get to this — in the process of reformatting a buggy drive with several FCP 7 projects and media on them, I managed to reformat BOTH the original drive and the back-up drive, thus losing all of the content. I'm now trying to figure out if it is possible to recover as much as possible from the drive so that whatever was on the drive is not a total loss.
I have done a scan with Wondershare Data recovery, which gave me a list of files that it could recover, but aparently it cannot recognize .fcp files, meaning that the media can be recovered (albeit with changed names and a lost file structure), but the project itself can't.
I am now attempting a scan with Stellar Phoenix Mac Data Recovery, but it will be quite a while before I can find out if it sees the .fcp files.
If this doesn't work, I was hoping that someone might know of software that would recognize a .fcp file, which would be a big step closer to as much of a recovery as possible.
Hard drive is a 2TB G-Drive, connected through FireWire 800.
Thanks a lot.

I had a drive do a graceful swan dive and used an app called FileSalvage to recover the contents before it went totally bad. They were williing to work with me to craft the software to find file types that weren't in their standard database. It worked moderately well.
I thought long and hard about spending the money to send that drive to a data recovery firm (with no guarantee that they'd get more off it that was useable) and decided to spend the same amount on some good single malt. Didn't do much for data recovery but I was much happier.
Good luck,

Is it possible to recover project file after PSE 7 crashed?

I was drawing in PSE 7 using a Wacom tablet, and suddenly a popup said PSE has stopped working. Thought I clicked ignore or somehow get rid of the popup without closing it, but it closed. Is there any way to recover the file I was working on? Naturally, I hadn't saved it yet :-(. I tried to open "Recently Edited Files", but it only had the unedited version. Help
Also, anyone know how to get rid of the little tool option popup when I touch my pen to the tablet? It's driving me NUTS!
Thanks

I may have deleted some system files from my computer due to my antivirus and now my imac won't start. Actually it does, and then there is a blank screeen with the apple logo and it shuts down right away. is tehre a possibility of recovering my files?

Hello
I was having some problems with my Imac, for a while it was slow and often disconneceted from my wifi, while this one worked perfectly (tested with other devices)
I thoug i might have a virus, so i downloaded an antivirus (mac keeper) and started checking.
I also did a scan of my computer using Console or something from the utilities, and then a folder popped witha file I had canceled a while ago. I canceled the file and then my Imac continued to be slow.
i then restarted my Imac, but when it started, the usual grey logo of Apple appeared, and then it shut down suddently.
I tried to reboot it holding the command key and R but nothing, and then i tried holding the shift key and a bar appeared, and at half of the bar it sut itself down again.
I think it is probably a preoblem because I may have cancelled some of the system files from a folder called "private" in the "documents" folder.
Is there any way I can recover some of my files? maybe all of them? I hope so because I have some important files there
Is this a thing I can do myself or do Ineed to go to a MacStore to repair it? Will I need to change HD or just to format it and reinstall? also if there is any way i can recover some of my files that would be great.
Thanks
Ludo
P.S. problems appeared when i installed the Mavericks version.

If MacKeeper corrupted the Recovery partition then even I underestimated its potential for damage. Garbage "cleaning" apps will cause misery but I have not found that the Recovery partition to have been affected by using MacKeeper or anything like it. I doubt that it did so, but I have learned not to underestimate the potential for such things to result in system corruption.
Before concluding your Mac has a hardware failure, try booting OS X Internet Recovery by holding command option r on startup (three fingers). That will force your iMac to bypass the Recovery partition altogether, and convey the ability to create a new one.
An Internet connection will be required (wired or wireless).
At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red. If Disk Utility reports "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" in green then you can be reasonably (though not completely) assured your hard disk is in good working order.
Assuming the HD remains usable you can then use Disk Utility to erase it. Reinstall OS X, restore your essential software and other files, and don't reinstall the junk.

Hey, is it possible to recover Werdsmith files?

Few days ago my iTouch restored itself and all of my apps have been deleted. When I finally managed to sync all of my apps back and opened the Werdsmith app I almost got an heart attack. Please tell me there's some way to get my files back.

Restore from backup.
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If you restore from iTunes backup.
To help prevent the last backup from being overwritten and thus erasing the Messages from the last backup turn off autosyncing so that you have to overtly start a sync. To turn off go iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says "Prevent iPods...".

Files disappeared after running disk utility disk repair but still space still remains. how do i recover the files?

stupidly repaired my external hard disk without backing it up via mavericks's disk utility repair option.
After the repair, all my folders disappeared but at the same time I noticed that the disk space still remained the same. Is there anyway to get these files back? My thesis is on it.

How do I to recover lost files on the iPhone 4 due to a restore?

This past weekend, my iphone 4 suddenly stop sending and recieveing calls then wouldn't do anything until I restore it on itunes. So I restored it but since my phone hasen't been synced recently, I lost several songs and apps that I paid for and several photos/videos too. I really don't want to have to purchase those apps and songs again. So, if it is possible to recover those files and whoever knows how to do it; please respond to this as soon as possible.

1. (You KNOW what's coming) NEVER restore or update any device without backing up/syncing first.
2. You can re-download virtually all apps without paying again.
3. SOL for music/media from iTunes - you'll have to pay again.
4. Photos and any other data/files on the phone which were lost cannot be recovered. There are no data recovery methods for iPhones.

Please tell me it's possible to recover Mail data.

Hello,
Ok I just did a BIG "oooops!" on sister inlaw's Macbook! Ok so I'm try to send an email and then notice that it will not send and just sits in the Outbox. She's on Comcast so I go to the Comcast page and look for Apple Mail settings and compare those to the settings that she has.....I see her are not correct, so I inadvertently remove her mail settings.......So I thought. **** it all if that didn't just REMOVE all of her email! **** it! Well, being on Comcast I check her settings and see that it's set to NOT delete any read mail and only delete unread mail after 45 days. So I'm thinking, 'Whewww!', right? WRONG! When I check her Webmail, there is NOTHING there! Apparently Apple Mail removed the messages from the server after it downloaded them!
****! Things are looking pretty bleak about now, unless I can find a recover utility that can recover the older removed mail data files that were there before I deleted them. I don't know what OSX has in terms of data recovery. I have a few things in Windows that would do the trick on Windows, but that don't help me here!
So my next question is, are there some recovery tools that can get her mail back. I have already tried to recreate her mail settings, so I hope that hasn't already overwritten the info. I'm trying to retrieve!
Thanks SOOOOOO much for ANY help!
Thanks!
Jeff

There's no assurance that you will recover anything. If Comcast maintains temporary backups of mail accounts you could see if they can restore a prior state of her account. But don't count on it.

How to recover my files from Lightroom Catalog?

I lost my (NEF) files from hard drive.My Lightroom 1.4 Catalog is on separate hard drive.It is possible to recover my files?

If you have no way of recovering the original .nef files then these are gone forever.
The best then that you can hope for is to extract .jpg files from Lightroom's Preview files. These are in the .lrdata folder next to your catalog (.lrcat) files. Your results will also depend on the size/quality of previews that you had generated.
If you are on Windows (I have only ever tried this on Windows Xp), then you can download lightroom_recover from here:
http://www.ploki.info/index.php?pagename=Main.LightRoomRecover
It will extract .jpg, but they have the same unwieldy names as Lightroom gives to the preview (.noindex) files.
If you still have the disc from which you lost your .nef files it may be worth searching for a data/image recovery program or indeed having a look at recycle/trash first.

Sharing .band files between ipads?

Hi all,
I have seen comments regarding not being able to share from Mac GB to iPad GB, bur is it possible to share .band files between IOS equipment eg two iPads or an iPad and iPhone? I have tried beginning a song on my iPhone, then sharing to iTunes in a .band file (which actually saves a few folders and files to a folder on my PC). Then on trying to "add" a file to my iPad in iTunes, but there is no ".band" file that I can see, just the folder and it's contents.
I realise I could save the individual tracks as aif files and load them into a new song, but this kinda defeats the purpose of being able to share a song file with a mate for both of us to work on in midi format....
Am I missing something here?

It should be possible using the File Sharing system, but currently only using a Mac. You can export a .Band project and copy it to a PC using file sharing but what you get is a folder. There is no proper way to copy that folder back into the iPad, or a different one. I have heard tales of success using tools like iExplorer to mess around in the device's file system but I've not tried that myself.

Truecrypt volume is empty, but the volume was never deleted. How do I recover the files (I know the password to the Truecrypt volume)?

Earlier when I went to access my truecrypt password encrypted volume, it showed that it was empty, and it contained 0 files. I never deleted the files and I am the only person with the password.
I suspect it may be because (1) I tried making a password protected folder on disk utility or (2) tried to setup time machine and didn't quite work.
My question is: is it possible to recover the files, if so, how can I recover the files. I've tried manually powering the computer off, restarting the computer, reinstalling truecrpt.
Please help, I have many treasured pictures on the volume.

Hi,
DPM do not care about the Source File has changed or deleted, so SCDPM does not know if a File has been changed or is deleted.
So there is now known way to archive your Goal.
I can imaging that you can archive this Goal with a Powershelgl Script, but would be not this easy

How do I recover lost files from a deleted user with no backup?

So I was locked out of my account for no reason giving me an error occurred message. I came on here to get help and the guy who helped me made me delete the account and then make a new one with the same name. The next steps to recover the files that he gave me do not work and he mentions that if it doesn't work to find the files and if I do not have a back up I will never be able to recover those files. If I knew deleting the user would have a chance on loosing all my files I would have never done it! I CAN NOT LOOSE ALL MY FILE. I REALLY NEED ALL MY PHOTOS 10 years of photos. Some of the photos were in an older iphoto which was deleted after Yosemite update. WHY I DON'T KNOW. However most of my photos were in files never connected to iphoto. Can anyone please help me find and recover all my photos. PLEASE, there has to be a way. I appreciate all the help provided.
