A PC will not see data from a MAC. You need a MAC, only if way your going to get the data is with a recovery tool that supports Macintosh's file system Oregon to put it in a MAC and move the files to a PC with a flash drive formatted to FAT32

Check that unstylish

Your job is that Windows has no clue what a HFS file system is

Really i have used my windows 7 machine to pull information off a mackintosh laptop disk drive

Please remember, the data you pull will non completely be functional on your windows machine but the information is salvageable. All i was doing was backing ascending the drive thusly i could restore the information to the drive once i reinstalled the OS.

Hope this helps,

Short respond — As forever, "how valued is the information on it?"  $40 ain't much.

Yearner answer — Try it from another Macintosh. "Disk Utility" whitethorn show the drive, but refuse to mount it. Not the worse scenario, which is the drive cannot be seen cannot glucinium seen by Disk Utility (& in all probability dead).

Important to have intercourse if File Vault was secondhand (if so, options are small).

Other options if unmountable & prospectively salvageable:
