Thanks guys. I finally have some time to play with this, plus access to the card.
It won't mount at all. Not even Disk Utility can see it, and it's not in any disks listed in Terminal. I'm looking to mount and recover data, not un-delete, but thanks to Dan for the idea. I found some software called PhotoRec, from http://www.cgsecurity.org/ And tried it, but since the damaged card won't mount, the software can't act on it. I know the reader is okay because it works with other cards with no problem. Besides, I don't have another reader here to try at the moment. -- Alex Hall > On Nov 13, 2017, at 08:48, dan d. <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Try this, it might do the trick; it is said to recover image files and is > free: > > https://www.bluem.net/en/projects/exif-untrasher/ > > > On Sat, 11 Nov 2017, Alex Hall wrote: > >> Hi all, >> I'm looking for data recovery software that's low cost or free and works on >> macOS.
