Mac OS X hard drive is divided into various partitions called volumes. The idea of partitioning the hard drive is to store your valuable data in separate volumes and avoid mixing up of it. Hard drive stores all types of user data such as documents, text files, photos, audio files, videos etc. Mac operating system uses Extended (HFS) or HFS+ file system. HFS+ file system is the successor of HFS (Hierarchical File System). Mac OS has different versions of operating system and are commonly referred as Jaguar, Panther, Tiger, Leopard, Snow Leopard, Lion etc. Mac OS is widely used in the world of animation due to its rich GUI and user friendly interface.

There are few situations where Mac users lose their most memorable images from Mac hard drive or a volume due to human errors. There are various scenarios for deletion of images from Mac like power surge, virus attack, accidental deletion of images, accidental formatting of volumes, etc. This can lead to corruption in image files, hence you are unable to view the images. In such situations, users are worried to recover the lost images, but there is nothing to worry. There are digital photo recovery software’s that can recover lost or deleted images and other files from Mac hard drive.

Most common scenarios for loss of images on Mac are as follows and briefed:
• Mishandling: User might unplug the exte
al storage device like USB while transferring images betwee
USB and Mac. This can damage the image files and later files cannot be viewed.
• Accidental formatting: User might accidentally clicked format option and data like images and other files will be deleted.
• Virus attack: You can’t view the image files, when they are been infected by virus.
When images are deleted from the system, they do not get deleted permanently. Just index pointing to data is deleted. Hence it is invisible to operating system so it is considered as deleted or lost. When user lost image files on Mac system, he need not panic as images deleted or lost on Mac can always be recovered using photo recovery software.
