Compact Disc is called CD for short. It is a kind of optical disk mainly used to store high-quality digital music. Since released in 1982, it has been the standard storage format for commercial recording, appreciated by all music lovers, and ever one of the most widely used storage devices in PC. Owning a Mac computer which is famous for its powerful functions of videos and music entertainment, many users would like to use Mac to listen to the beautiful music stored in CD. However, used frequently or exposed in the environment, CD is prone to damage, thus leading to music data loss in CD. But nobody looks forward to forever disappearance of the beloved music files. Many users want to recover data from CD in Mac, yet the results are always disappointing because it is very difficult to recover data from CD in Mac. Mac is not like Windows operating system which has rather intact supply channels of the third-party software, which makes it nearly impossible to recover data from CD in Mac. Nevertheless, this dilemma is about to end, not because of the emergence of Mac CD recovery software but because of the cancellation of built-in drivers in the newly produced Mac products, which reveals the termination of CD-ROM in Mac to a large extent. 

Reasons for the termination of Mac CD-ROM
Seeing the above content, many users can not understand the action of Apple Inc.: why is Mac CD-ROM era to end? Is it due to the difficulty of recovering data from CD in Mac? Obviously it isn't. As data storage can be realized through network and U disk, computer users rely on optical storage devices less and less. Owing to the improvement of the global network speed, we can conveniently and fast download the high-quality music which was stored in CD before to computer disk or U disk through the Internet. This is the main reason why Mac CD-ROM era will be terminated. Then, for the purpose of lightness and thinness, the removal of driver is a good method for keeping fashion and splendor of Mac. No matter which reason leads to the end of Mac CD-ROM, the annoyance of recovering data from CD in Mac has been got rid of. It is easier for us to recover lost data after data loss if we use hard disk to store music files. What we need is just a piece of professional Mac data recovery software.

FileVault 2 is a built-in encryption feature first introduced in OS X Lion. Unlike Microsoft's EFS, which encrypts via the file system, FileVault 2 turns your hard drive into an encrypted volume. Anything stored on your hard drive (or at least the partition of your hard drive running Mac OS X) will then be encrypted.

Don't confuse FileVault 2 with "Legacy FileVault," or simply "FileVault," the earlier version of the feature first introduced in Mac OS X Panther (10.3).

1. Verify that your computer is running Mac OS X Lion (version 10.7) or higher. You can do so by clicking the Apple icon at the upper left of your screen and selecting "About This Mac."

2. Make sure you have OS X Recovery downloaded. This is another Mac app that comes with OS X Lion, Mountain Lion and Mavericks, so if you're running one of these operating systems you should be all set.

3. On the desktop, click the Apple icon in the upper lefthand corner.

4. Click on "System Preferences…" from the dropdown menu.

5. From the "System Preferences" window, select the "Security and Privacy" icon in the first row.

6. Select the "FileVault" tab from the "Security & Privacy" window.

7. Under "FileVault," click on the "Turn On FileVault..." button.

You'll then see a new window asking you to choose which user accounts on the computer will be able to access the encrypted volume you're about to create.

8. Click on the gold-colored padlock icon in the lower left corner of the "Security and Privacy" window. You'll be asked to enter the username and password for the administrator account on the computer. Once you do so the gold padlock will switch to look unlocked instead of locked. 

9. Choose which user accounts can access the encrypted volume you're about to make.The account from which you're making the volume will be checked by default. If you want any other accounts to have access, manually select them. Make sure these accounts have passwords set before you choose them. When you're done, click "Continue."

10. Restart the Mac. You'll be prompted to do so by a new window. Click the "Restart" button.

Difficulty in recovering DVD lost data in MAC always puzzles MAC users a lot. But now the situation is changed. Many data recovery programs like MiniTool Power Data Recovery that supports MAC file system and DVD data recovery have changed the situation. But there are also other reasons. As the first choice of saving HD movies and high quality music, DVD is very widely used in all kinds of digital devices, including MAC. 

However, as choices of MAC data recovery software are really few, many MAC users worry about DVD data security in MAC a lot. When important data in DVD is lost, it is hard to recover lost DVD data in MAC. Most MAC users choose to use MiniTool Power Data Recovery that supports DVD data recovery torecover lost DVD data in Windows operating systems. Such operations are efficient to help you recover lost DVD data completely, but if you only have MAC instead of PC with Windows operating systems, it is impossible to perform data recovery. 

In fact, with the development of technology, some digital products that can replace DVD to play and save music and video files have come out already. They mainly employ built-in storage device so that they seldom encounter damage or data loss. In addition, when data are lost, users can use MiniTool Mac Data Recovery to recover in MAC easily. Thus we can save a lot of time and operations. 

Shallow talk about DVD
What kind of future will DVD have? This is paid much attention by many users. Actually, as the top level computer, the newest MAC has abandoned built-in DVD drive already. Is this a sign that DVD is obsolete? You may not believe it, but in 1988, Apple firstly abolished floppy disk that has been obsolete for a long time. Thus we can see how prescient Apple is. 

Cast aside others, and let's focus on availability: the popular music player has combined playing and saving function together, and its small size and portability are all crystal of high technology. On the other side, DVD with old technology is very out of date. What's more, when important data in music player is lost, we can use MiniTool Mac Data Recovery to recover easily. This software runs perfectly in MAC, and supports various common storage devices such as memory card and memory stick. For more information about MiniTool Mac Data Recovery, welcome to our official website: http://www.mac-data-recover.com. 

Do not immediately reformat your drive: Your data is very likely still on the drive. In the event you reformat your drive it will be far more challenging to regain the information using data recovery software should the drive manufacturers and Apple fail to deliver a fix. If you can mount your drive, check its capacity using 'Get Info', which should confirm data remains on drive.

Check for software updates: Check for software updates to LaCie or WD (and possibly other maker's) supplied drive software tools. These updates will be distributed via individual manufacturer Websites and/or via Apple. You should also check for firmware updates for your drive.

Try another Mac: If you can arrange to use a non-Mavericks Mac you should be able to check to ensure your data remains available on the drive. In some cases (OK, in most cases, but not everyone will have a spare WD RAID array to achieve this) you should consider backing up your data to another drive.

Use your own Mac: If all else fails you could try to return your Mac to its pre-Mavericks state using the OS X Recovery tools and your Time Machine backup (if you have one), or a cloned version of your pre-Maverick Mac or other such backup (if you have one). If you lack a pre-install backup then please, please backup in future. Once you restore your old OS you should be able to access files on your drive in order to back it up elsewhere before upgrading to Mavericks again.

Wait and see: The important thing is not to panic. WD is clearly looking into the problem that (I suspect) is likely based on the firm failing to audit its applications against Mavericks developer guidelines (WD says its software is "not new")

I anticipate a future manufacturer and/or Apple software patch will address this flaw -- hopefully data will not be corrupted or damaged, unless user's attempt to reformat these drives before a fix is released.

Nowadays, computer becomes a necessity in both work and life. People use it very often and it has already become a reliable space for people to store and save important documents, multimedia files and all other kinds of datas. It’s convenient and safe to access these datas on computer, but sometimes you may get into data loss trouble due to accidental trash empty.

When similar problem happens, you may feel rather worried that these emptied files may disappear forever from now on. However, it is not that bad as you thought. You can easily get these data back from emptied recycle bin with some professional data recovery tools. If you are running a Mac, I will recommend you the MiniTool Mac File Recovery which is a safe and easy-to-use file recovering application for Mac.

Data loss must be one of the most scariest things in office, probably a nightmare. It is pretty bad when you open your computer in meeting room or somewhere, and find that all important data were gone without any omen. Data lose is a common thing that many reasons can cause it:

1. Accidental trash empty: once in a while, people may want to get deleted files back from recycle bin but find that there is nothing in it, because the trash has been emptied by an accident.

2. Data loss during format: sometimes we need to format storage devices such as hard drive, USB, SD card, floppy disk and etc for some special reasons. After the format, you are surprised to find that files have not been backed up yet.

3.Lost data while wrong ejection: I guess many friends have the same data losing experience. When you inserted the USB-disk into the computer USB cable, cut some files in order to save them on your computer hard disk. During the file transition, the USB has been ejected unexpectedly. What’s worse, the files have been cut off and lost.

4. Hard drive crash or system corruption: due to some unexpected reasons, the Mac hard drive and system crashed and some significant files lost during the process. Or you may also lost a lot of files when the system suddenly shuts down because of power problem.

5. File loss because of virus infection: we may lost our documents, archives, photos and etc because of virus, such as worm, Trojan, malware and etc. The infected directory or file folder may be deleted wrongly by nonprofessional antivirus programs…

There are many different occasions that may cause data loss in digital life. However, you will no longer need to worry about those worst case, if you have the Kvisoft Data Recovery for Mac installed on your computer. It is capable of solving these data loss problems for you quickly.

When using MAC, sudden power outage will bring us terrible losses, and hard drive in MAC will bear the heaviest damage. Hard drive is very likely to be damaged when power is suddenly broken. At this time, partition management tool will show thedamaged partition with an unrecognized mark. To use this partition, you need to format it. But formatting operation will lead to all data being deleted. Therefore, you need to recover lost MAC data from damaged MAC partitions with MAC data recovery software before formatting. If you have already formatted the partition before recovery, can lost data still be recovered? In fact, as long as we have the help of MiniTool Mac Data Recovery, we can easily perform MAC data recovery. 

Formatting is a common operation when managing MAC. It can clean all data in the partition as well as convert file system and change partition label, etc. Therefore, when MAC partition is damaged, you can perform formatting operation to restore it. The only disadvantage of formatting is that it cleans all data in the partition. However, MiniTool Mac Data Recovery has greatly made up this disadvantage. When you find partition is damaged, you can format the partition freely. MiniTool Mac Data Recovery will help you recover lost MAC data easily. No matter you recover lost MAC data before or after formatting, MiniTool Mac Data Recovery can perfectly finish its duty. Let me show you the two situations of MAC data recovery: 

1. Recover MAC partitions before formatting 
MiniTool Mac Data Recovery is a piece of multi-functional MAC data recovery software. It provides users with different functional modules aiming at different situations of data loss. 

 

To recover MAC partitions, select "Damaged Partition Recovery" functional module in this interface. 



In this list of partitions, select the damaged partition, and then click "Open" button at left to scan the partition quickly. Notice: even "Open" helps you scan the partition, but "Full Scan" has better efficiency of scanning. 



So far you can see the lost data in damaged partition are successfully found. You only need to check files you need to recover, and then click "Save Files" button to save them to an appointed location to finish recovering MAC partitions data. 

2. Recover MAC partitions after formatting 
To recover MAC partitions data after formatting, the operations are exactly the same with above. You also need "Damaged Partition Recovery" functional module. 



The only difference in the process is that target partition has turned normal instead of unrecognized. No matter the file system of damaged partition is FAT or HFS+, MiniTool Mac Data Recovery can easily perform data recovery to it. Through these operations, we can get the following result: 

 

Through comparison, we can see the results of two situations are all the same. It proves that MiniTool Mac Data Recovery can recover data from both damaged partition and formatted partition. In addition, MiniTool Mac Data Recovery can recover data from lost partition. For more detailed operation instruction, please visit official website: http://www.mac-data-recover.com.
