When I turned on the MacBook after about 2 hours in sleep mode, it freezes the cursor can still move, but I am stuck in Task Control. A few weeks ago, due to overheating, one of the RAM slots was damaged, causing frequent crashes.
"My MacBook Pro has recently encountered some problems.
Can you suggest a software program that can be used for data recovery? I appreciate any help and advice from you. To make matters worse, I found that for some reason Time Machine has not backed up my data for the past 3 months. I rebooted, while holding down the Option key to manually select the boot disk, and the Macintosh HD has disappeared. I was trapped in The Apple logo is launched on the screen. I have since been told that this case is inherent to a failing hard drive. "A few weeks ago, I realized that whenever I let the iMac Pro sleep for more than a few hours, it always crashes and restarts. Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated." What is the cheapest and/or easiest way to retrieve my data? Is there any software or good way to extract files from my dead MacBook Pro? I want to retrieve files in some way and put them on an external hard drive. I heard that when I got a MacBook Pro, I could put this drive into a new MBP. I almost gave up on recovering the Mac, but I really need the important things above it, such as photos and document files. The screen stays black, the front lights are different, and I think it's a bit in and out. When I turned it on, it didn't start properly, it just sounded different.
If there are any, First Aid will fix them and macOS should then mount the disk without any further hassle."My MacBook Pro crashed almost a year ago. Running First Aid on an external disk is a useful way to make sure the format or file structure doesn’t contain any faults or issues. Select Run to perform disk diagnostics and fix any issues.Open Utilities and Disk Utility, highlight the grayed-out volume and select First Aid in the top center.If this doesn’t work, you may need to use the Verify Disk utility to make sure everything is working as it should. Open Finder and navigate to the drive in Devices.The volume should shift from gray to normal to signify it has been mounted. Highlight the volume and select Mount.If a volume is present but not mounted, it should be grayed out here. Check for a volume if the disk is present.Then, open Utilities > Disk Utility and make sure the disk is listed in the left window.Attach the drive if it isn’t already connected.This should be done automatically when macOS detects the drive, but it doesn’t always work. If you think the drive works fine, let us see if we can manually attach it to macOS. If the box is checked, move on to fix the external hard drive not showing up on Mac. By default, it doesn’t display much and the setting to not show external disks may be enabled. Use a USB power cable if you suspect this to be the issue.ĭepending on what you find here, you can troubleshoot either the drive or your Mac.įirst, make sure Finder will display drive icons.
A USB cable carries 5V and if this is the sole power source for the drive, it may not be enough.
