My powerbook just panic kerneled while I was using pro tools. My external drive was on when this happened. I turned both items off. Reset the computer, and when it had booted the operating system I turned on the external drive. The drive is partitioned into 3 parts(recordings, samples, production). When turned on it would only load up 2 of the 3 partitions. The recording partition appears to have disappeared. I have reset the drive numerous times to no avail. I am not a computer tech type guy, and have no idea what to do. Half my album is stored on this portion of my drive, and I must figure out a way to recover this data....ANY help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

did you try disc utility yet to see if that can see your missing partition? it's happened to me before that my mac just decided to unmount the icon for good until i chose to mount it again.

If disc utility (Mac HDD-> Applications -> Utilities -> Disc Utility) does not fix it (use the repair disc option on the first aid tab), then try Disk Warrior to recover the directory. I have used this app successfully on 10 drives (mine and others) and it has proven to be more than worth the price for the heartaches averted.
Best of luck! peace -------------------- |
