Computers simplify our lives by incorporating the huge corpus of information in the form of data that our day to day transactions churn out. We cannot imagine life without them, so great is our reliance on them and so great is their contribution to us. Mac computers have become quite popular and their advanced features have attracted tech savvy users around the globe.
Like any other operating system Mac is not foolproof and can generate errors if any of its components suffer from malfunctions or fail due to hardware discrepancies.
One of the most common Mac related problems that bothers users is the blinking question mark on its startup screen. This blinking question mark generally appears when Mac is unable to track the valid System Folder required for the system initialization.
The time factor plays a very important role in this regard as the extent of the fault and probable chances of recovery depend on it. You don’t have to be an expert to be able to gauge this situation. Even a layman can do this.
If you see the question mark blinking on the screen for something around half a minute and then you see the system starting up normally, you can be rest assured it’s not a serious matter and can be effectively taken care of by going to Startup Disk -> Control Panel -> selecting your hard drive.
If you see the question mark blinking for a longer period of time, you might require the Apple HD SC Setup program to fix it. Try booting your system with this CD. If you are still encountering problems and the system refuses to boot, you are in for trouble.
These kinds of problems are primarily caused due to the corruption or damage in the disk drivers of the hard drive but don’t be surprised if you see this happening after having installed the system updates or after tempering with disk formatting tools.
Whatever might be the causation, solution can only be arrived at by reinstalling the operating system and thereby formatting the primary partition of the drive on which in most cases the operating system is installed. This in itself is a challenge and can lead to a grave data loss situation if the primary partition in the hard drive has not been further partitioned to accommodate other important information.
This means that all your crucial data along with the System files would be lost once the drive is formatted. If this be your situation, don’t try running free un-format tools or other programs designed for troubleshooting on your computer. This would merely aggravate the problem and land you up in real trouble. Entrust the job of data recovery to the data recovery professionals who can safely secure your data from the hard drive.
Stellar Information Systems Ltd has devised easy to use software to set right Mac related problems. Data Recovery Mac Software equipped with advanced searching algorithms identifies and locates the lost data and retrieves them in their original format from formatted, lost and even missing Mac volumes. That’s not all. It successfully recovers accidentally deleted data too. Stellar Phoenix Macintosh data recovery software works on HFS and HFS+ file systems of Mac operating system.
Stellar provides a demo version of the software along with a preview option which enables the user to access the extent of his data that would be recoverable. The recoverable files are displayed in the form of a tree providing the user the option to choose the files that he would desire to recover. But for gaining access to the recovered files the user is required to purchase the activation key that is send to the client along with the software.
