Erased partition on Mac using disk utility by mistake
Posted: 15 Mar 2018, 17:32
Hi Everyone,
I know this story sounds the same as everyone else and I have searched but I cannot seem to find how to fix my problem:
I erased a partition using disk utility on my mac thinking I had a backup of it.
I tried using test disk for over a week now and I still can't figure it out.
I even tried the suggestion of Repair a Mac OS X HFS+ Partition table and then ran test disk again.
I un mounted all partitions and I am trying the disc image copy option (the erased partition) to an external. Is this correct?
I don't see the following menu from another post.
run TestDisk, Advanced, Boot, RebuildBS, List and if you can see your files, choose Write, confirm
When I click advanced, there is no "Boot" option
Thank you in advance
