when i remove the USB appears to connect the iphone with iTunes. cant do nothing with him.

Almost always a hardware failure...could be the reason for your network issue. Try restoring on a different computer. If you get the same error, its almost always because of a hardware failure.
Make an appointment at an Apple store.

10.5.6 Update killed my mac, recovery software?
The title says it all. I'm looking for some HFS compatible recovery software. I've been using GetDataBack NTFS and FAT32 for years on PC systems.
I ran the 10.5.6 update on Wednesday night, and right before it was suppose to restart my macbook just turned off. Now it turns itself off everytime I try to boot into OS X. I have bootcamp setup so I've been using XP to get things done. I have Paragon's MacDrive installed on the XP partition and when I went to look at my Macintosh HD it said "This drive is either damaged or corrupted". I connected an external HFS drive to it and XP could read it just fine. Now, I'm pretty sure it's physically ok (since bootcamp works just fine) but I'm really worried about the data being corrupted. I have my first two weeks of notes from school, a partially built website, and some audio projects on the drive. I REALLY need to retrieve that data before I wipe it and reinstall leopard. I have access to a SATA to USB adapter, but I need to know what recovery software I should try.
Any advice?Hi Blueh1ro,
I'm sorry your first experience of the Discussions was not a good one, usually we do much better here. I can only think that the lack of response was, is, due to the fact that you posted on a Friday night and by the time most Mac users get out on bail Saturday morning your question was too blurry or too far buried down the list already. Also, people responding here generally do so because they think they might actually know the answer. That could tell you something right there. Indeed, I don't know the answer, I just felt good manners warranted a reply of some sort.
And then there are two other things, your subject line and hardware. Subject lines like that come out after every software update. I know, I've posted ones like that myself before I was beat over the head a few times. At least you've been spared the beating. The real veterans, the ones whose advice you really need, get tired of replying to subjects like that because what they say is always the same, "Well, you backed up your system before you updated, right? Just use that to get back to where you were before". When they hear, over and over, that people don't have back ups, or, now, are not using Time Machine, their eyes glaze over and they go back to bed for the day.
And lastly, your hardware, though this should be the least of the reasons. You're using an intel MacBook. Many here are using regular desktop towers and many of those are still G4s and G5s. The latter of those people you lose right away when they begin reading of bootcamp and xp. And in addition there are special Discussion pages for MacBook users only: http://www.apple.com/support/macbook/
Now you said you wanted recovery software, but what you really want is recovery software that fixes directories and such before recovering it or ideally you just want something that will fix the disks directory as it lies. Well, here's where I'm not on solid ground at all but I've pushed your topic up so others can have a look see again and comment. Diskwarrior is excellent, but I'm not sure it can fix an OS upgrade gone awry. And I'm not sure also that boot problems mean your data is corrupt. I would just try to get it off of there on another disk and see what's there. That's probably ignorant in my thinking though, hopefully others will chime in. Good luck. -
The problem is that my mac is working very well, in soft programs, like browser or text editing, and then stop. Stop for one eternity, until i do a hard shut down.
After this situation apper´s many times, in a single day, i went to a apple service store and left my mac to repair. At first, the tecnhical manager told me that happens a lot, and the problem are in the logic board. Well, when i pick up the mac, he told me that was a software problem and was solved with the instalation of 10.8.5, but in that same day, he crash 3 or 4 times, in different way´s. Now, he crash´s and restart alone, and at the first try don´t restart appearing one message on the grey screen.
I don´t know what is this problem.
Someone have or had this problem too?
What is the solution?
Thanks a lot...Maybe find a local who can translate for you. I don't know what to tell you for dealing in another country for service on your computer.
I can offer you something you can do if you want to give it a try. You'll need a backup of your data in your Home folder because you need to erase the drive. You'll also need a solid, preferably fast, internet connection.
Install or Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Erase the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
because it is three times faster than wireless. -
My ipod touch 4will not respond unless I hook it up to the computer. It never goes pasthe logo apple screen.It never restores fully. Cant tell if this is a screen or software problem.
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 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.

Windows xp pro stalls - blank screen- hardware or software problem?
Hi Guys,
My system is about one month old and has been awesome in performance and graphics.
Suddenly it (windows xp pro) stalls after flashing the windows loading screen and it goes blank. Looks like a software problem?
I am posting on this forum because when I check cmos, no hard drives are registered.
I can't get into safe mode, can't get past the administrator/user screen because no mouse operates here and can't select icons with the keyboard.(No admin passwords were set up anyway)
Booting from CD, repair console doesn't work because it can't find any hard drive.
Reluctant to do a complete reinstall because of precious stuff on the hard drive.
Using f8, "last known good..." just gives the same blank screen.
Using floppy boot, no other drives are recognized.
If my root directory has been wiped out by a virus or something, how come it gets past post and starts to load windows? If it's merely the graphics driver or similar not loading, how come the cmos shows no hard drive?
Is this a hardware or software problem? Any help much appreciated.THE ANSWER !!
Hi Guys,
I finally got to talk to the guy who set up this system and he said that it is normal for RAID drives not to show on BIOS/CMOS. 'Think of it like a vrtual drive' he said. When the black and white initialization screen shows something like: 'Nividia Stripe-healthy'...then THAT is the hard-drive.
He said that as long as Windows was getting to the loading screen, that means that the computer itself was functioning okay, so don't worry about BIOS, the problem is a file corruption in windows, or virus etc.
Also he said that when trying to use recovery console or reinstall windows, because the system can only read the RAID drives through a SCSI interface, you have to load the Nvidia SCSI drivers from floppy by pressing f6 when asked to at the bottom of the pale blue screen (from Windows cd boot), before trying to do anything with windows (or windows will just tell you it can't read the drives, as it did before with me.)
So in the end, I reinstalled windows by that method and everyting seems fine so far. YAY!
Thanks you people for being kind enough to help someone out. I really appreciate it. -

Help needed! Usb Data recovery software for word documents?
A friend of mine has saved ALL of her precious work on a USB pen, which for no apparent reason has stopped working!
It isn't being recognised by windows, but my mac is detecting it with trial software which I cannot buy on my measly student income. Not doable.
Is there any data recovery software available for macs which detect microsoft documents which is....ummm free?
It's beginning to drive me mad I've been looking at this stupid pen for ages. But my mate has offered me 50 quid if I get it sorted, so I am persevering! Any help would be appreciated guys!You can try the free Demo version of Data Rescue. It does not detect Word files; it's looking for anything on the device that matches the criteria you set.
Hope this helps,

Data Recovery Software for Mac.
I have 2 questions regarding data recovery from an external drive (WD My Book Essential).
1. During a Bootcamp install, the backup taken using WD Smartware software has been replaced by a Windows folder and I cannot read the drive after reinstalling SL on my Mac Mini to retrieve my backup. If I erase the drive (as the software is asking me to do), can I then recover the lost backup files using data recovery software or will the file system on the external drive cause a problem. (Format is NTFS)
2. Which data recovery software is best for for use on a Mac? Or do I recover using Windows software instead?
Thanks.If you want to recover data from a Windows partition, you probably need to use Windows recovery software. I'm not aware of any Mac data recovery software that can work with an NTFS partition, though there might be something out there I've missed. Do not erase the Bootcamp partition before attempting to use any recovery software if you can possibly avoid doing so (use Windows volume repair software if the volume won't mount); that will just make the recovery far more difficult.
Good luck. -

IPhoto deleted my entired library...recovery software is confusing
Last night I empied my trash bin and realized that it erased my entire iPhoto library. I've never put my library in the trash so I have no idea how this happened. I recently added a bunch of photos to iPhoto after my last backup so I am worried that they have been lost for forever. I tried using a recovery software (Mackeeper) but it recovered over 1000 files and I have no idea how to navigate through that much data to find the pictures that I needed. I looked in finder in the all photos category and it seems like some of them are there. I just want my library back and am curious if there is anyway to recover it? Any help is greatly appreciated!
No back up then?
1. iPhoto didn't delete your Library. Someone put it in the trash and then you emptied the trash. So you deleted your library. iPhoto has no ability to put its library in the trash.
2. Get rid of MacKeeper. Search this Disucssion site for much discussion about the quality of this app.
3. Use a reliable file recovery utility such as File Salvage
This will scan your disk for recoverable files. It can be set to scan for images. Actual recovery requires a purchase. At all times choose to recover the largest file size - it has the most likely chance of being a high qulity image.
Unfortuately, there is no way to sort through large amounts of data except manually.
Going forward, remember that with a back up this would not have been a problem. -
Need to find PowerPC Data Recovery Software
So, I was working one day inside my Power Mac G5 Quad by putting in some additional memory. Suddenly, my arm accidently pushes over my external hard drive with lots of my back up software. The drive falls to the carpeted floor. Next, I hooked it up to my mac to see if there was a problem with it. I found no problem other than all my programs were gone. The drive does post to the desktop and no clicking or bad hard drive noises come on. I then go to hook this up to my windows laptop and Windows chkdsk refuses to run, saying that the drive is not formatted.
Can someone recommend for me a good data recovery software, other than Prosoft Data Rescue 3? I have had nothing but problems with that software as when it gets to stage 3 of 3, it hangs at 71.93 percent and stays there.
I really want my data back as I also have a backup of my Gateway's windows image on there. I looked up a software called Boomerang Data Recovery, but they want like 140 dollars for a basic licence, and not to mention I heard bad things about that company such as, scamming people, no customer service, etc.
I am looking for something affordable, but with which can do the job.
Thanks.Ive never run into any trouble with Data Rescue (granted Im still using 2.0), but it sounds like what BDAqua said. Its probably hit a bad spot on the drive and yes it will sit there reading and reading and reading until it can get around it.. Last time I had to recover some stuff due to a lovely power outage, it took a few hours to get everything off of my 500GB storage drive..
Id go with Diskwarrior for my 'second opinion'. DW is pretty good about it, and in the event it finds a problem, I like its reports alot better then Data Rescue. Data Rescue wont really wont tell you anything about the drive's problems other then it cant read data, but DW will let you know whats going on..

Why can't a big company like Toshiba include system software disks with their computers?

Solved!
Go to Solution.i never said that toshiba wasnt cheap they are the ones that say it is because the are green. the main reason they charge $25 for media is when they tell people that it cost that much you would be amazed how many of them find there recovery media that they supposedly have been looking for.
as for creating the recovery media you dont have to be a guru to make it yourself. it is all explained in they users guide. the problem is no one reads the users guide. im not saying that you didnt but you would be surprized how many people ask questions or say they didnt know something that is clearly in the guide. they should have a download of the recovery media but it would be 20GB worth of files,drivers and apps. even with a fast net connection that will still take quite a while.
i dont agree with most of what toshiba does expecially towards their customers.

A few days ago my iBook started up to the blank apple logo screen and wouldn't go any further. The hard drive was also making very loud noises and sounded like it was spinning extra fast. I called Apple and because of the extended Logic Board warranty program I will be able to send it in for repairs even though it's no longer under warranty. What they told me though was to back up my files since they may have to erase the hard drive.
That's where the problem comes in...
I know it was a stupid thing to do but I never backed up my files. I have some stuff on this computer that I would really like to recover. I found that if I let it rest for long enough and unplugged the power source (leaving running only on the battery) it would start up very slowly every once in a while but every time I tried to copy the files it would freeze again and I would have to try again.
I decided to bring my laptop over to a friend's house who also has an apple computer (a macbook) to try and put it into target disk mode and transfer the files that way. When I plugged it into the macbook it said there was a problem reading the disk. I started disc utilities on the macbook and tried to use disk first aid to repair it. It took hours and finally, when it got to the end, it said it was unable to repair it (one of the things that came up was "Invalid Directory Item Count. It should be..." and then different numbers like "0 instead of 14" and "17 instead of 54") I thought that I would just have to do it the slow way and hope that one time it stays working long enough to copy them all. When I turned it on again, however, the blinking question mark folder icon came up meaning now it could no longer locate the hard drive. The thing is when I use target disc mode to plug it into the macbook it still recognizes that an external drive has been plugged in (in the disc first aid it shows up right next to the macbook internal drive and under info it knows how large the drive is, etc.) it just says that it can't read it (under SMART status it says "not supported").
So here's where my two questions come in:
1) I am unable to boot a disc using the "c" button while starting up. Does that mean that if I buy some sort of recovery software like DiscWarrior it won't even be able to start? I'd like to know because I don't want to spend $100 on software if it won't even be able to try to fix the problem.
2) If I send it in to Apple to get fixed, what are the chances that they'll clear the hard drive? Is it standard procedure to begin the repair or is it only a last resort? Also, does anyone think that the Logic Board is the problem or is it something else?Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
What version of the OS are you running (or trying to run) on it?
It sounds like it is quite possible that your hard drive is the problem, although it could be both the hard drive AND the logic board.
Some of the new logic boards are only Panther compatible, so if you are running 10.3 there is a better chance that they won't have to blank the drive (at least, that's what I was told). I was running Panther, and mine came back three times with the hard drive data intact. But you definitely can't count on it.
Try starting up this way, first in Safe Mode.
If the iBook is on, turn it off. Let it rest overnight (or at least several hours).
Pick it up in your left hand and squeeze the case to the left of the trackpad between your palm and left thumb.
Still squeezing, push the power button. Do not let up the pressure on the case.
As the startup chime is ending, hold down the Shift key. Keep holding it down until you see the Apple logo and the progress indicator that looks like a spinning gear. Then you can let up the Shift key, but DO NOT LET UP THE PRESSURE ON THE CASE.
If this works, you will see your normal desktop. When you do, shut down normally, still keeping pressure on the case. Once it is shut down, you can quit squeezing the case.
Allow the iBook to rest several hours before trying to start up in FireWire Target Disk Mode with your friend's MacBook as the Host computer and your iBook as the Target. Again, keep pressure on the case to the left of the trackpad as you attempt the FireWire transfer. Do not let up, or it will freeze again (if it has the logic board problem).
If it will not start up using this procedure, it is likely the hard drive at fault.
