Retrieve Accidentally Deleted Photos from Mac Machine

Posted: Oct 16, 2010 |Comments: 0 |

I was never a technology freak, and that is why working on my Windows computer always made me jittery. But, the day I got my first Mac machine, I lost those nervy feelings. In fact, today I sit in front of my Mac for more time than I spend on anything else. Whether I have to do some work, watch videos, surf the net, or anything, I do it all on my Mac. But last week, when I transferred some photos from my Canon to the Mac, and formatted the memory card, little did I realize that I would soon be losing them completely, and I would have no means of Mac photo recovery. The very thought of losing my photos makes me edgy.

We had come from our honeymoon, and I had insisted that we transfer the photographs on my Mac machine, as it gave a wonderful viewing experience. But alas, the photos got deleted somehow! I guess the moments were not meant to last, except in our memories. Or so I thought. My husband who is a software engineer, and quite opposite of what I am, was not at all perturbed by it. On the contrary, he told me about the revolution in digital technology. I learn about what is known as data recovery. Sometimes, we do delete thing things hat we never intended to, but accidents do happen. To combat such situations, many companies have come up with advanced software that read this deleted data and recovers the same. Sounds impossible, doesn't it? But it isn't!

Every operating system saves files on the hard disk in similar manner. And when a file is deleted, the operating system simple marks the space occupied by that file as empty, instead of actually emptying it. This way, when fresh data needs to written, the same can be done on that space. So it simply overwrites the data. These software read these places which have as yet not been overwritten, and extract all the data saved therein, when the user asks for the same.

And, the Mac photo recovery software too works on these principles. It applies complex recovery algorithms to exclusively recover the files which are saved in specified photo formats, like JPEG, RAW, PNG, TIF, TIFF, BMP etc. Some of these software are designed to recover other multimedia files as well, like audio and video file formats as well.

Stellar Phoenix Mac Photo Recovery is a specialized software designed to carry out recovery of all photo, audio and videos file formats. Compatible with all versions of Mac OS X, including, Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, 10.5 Leopard, 10.4 Tiger, 10.3.9 Panther, this Mac photo recovery tool features an easy-to-use interface and context-sensitive help manual.
