use Data Rescue on orginal disc not you backed up from... Do not download from your existing system... and start from CD or DVd after burn...
You may look other options but i recommend http://www.macosxapplications.com/system-disk-utilities/data-rescue-3-emergency-hard-drive-recovery-file-recovery/ Other options that i tried before for different cases BUT NEVER WRITE ANYTHING ON THE DISCS that you try to rescue and NEVER USE THEM. Data rescue take data from them and write another disc, no change on old drive... That's the best way. 2010/4/28 Cliff Rediger <redicl...@yahoo.com>: > >> On Apr 27, 2010, at 7:45 PM, Dan wrote: >> > This is why we recommend using CarbonCopyCloner for making backups. >> > >> > On Apr 28, 8:52 am, Bruce Johnson <john...@pharmacy.arizona.edu> > wrote: >> It's a bit disconcerting to make a complete backup, knowing you have >> just a handful of file and folders on your desktop, then restore from >> the SAME backup, and suddenly seeing mounds and mounds of files on the >> desktop. :-/ > > As I mentioned, I'm using SuperDuper. > Not sure how it might compare to CCC, but > I entirely duplicate my working HD. > Thing is, the TB HD (AV storage) was/is NOT backed up, and there's the > rub. > I figured use and therefore risk was minimal, which does not account > for "user stupid error". > > Cliff > > -- > You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for > those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power > Macs. > The list FAQ is at http://lowendmac.com/lists/g-list.shtml and our netiquette > guide is at http://www.lowendmac.com/lists/netiquette.shtml > To post to this group, send email to g3-5-list@googlegroups.com > For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/g3-5-list > -- Baha Ata -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
