Can't access external hard drive after plugging it in to a mac

Is it possible to recover the files from an external hard drive after
plugging it into a mac? Window Vista sees the drive and assigns it a
drive letter, but I can't access any of the files and it keeps telling
me to format the drive. I have files on it that I don't want to lose.

Thanks,
RJ

I have plugged drives into a Mac and then a PC without a problem, so
something else might be happening here.

I have plugged both FAT32 drives and NTFS drives into the Mac, which was an
Intel Mac. I have written to the FAT32 drives natively on the Mac, and to
the NTFS drives using some free software, as well as both Parallels and
VMware virtual machines.

Never a problem.

Did you try to format or otherwise manipulate the drive (other than just
writing to a FAT32 systemn)?

Try plugging the drive into another PC, just in case something is screwy on
yours.

Thanks for your reply. I have tried plugging the drive into a couple
different windows machines and they appear to recognize the drive, but
not the file system. I am asked if I want to format the drive. I am
going to try connecting the drive to a mac today. I can browse the
files with some recovery software and I did find some software to
recover the data, however, it only recovers the files and doesn't
maintain the folder structure. When I look at the drive properties
under disk management it says the disk is in a RAW state rather than
NTFS or FAT32. I would like to recover the files before I reformat
the drive. Do you know of any good inexpensive or free file recovery
software?

Recuva by the people who make Ccleaner.

More information: I plugged the hard drive into a mac and I am able
to access the files. I talked to a co-worker of mine who has the same
issue with a thumb drive.

I defer to the others about recovery software, since I haven't used any
in over 5 years.

Please do *not* do anything that writes to your hard drive until after
you have recovered your files. There is always a risk that something
further will go wrong, especially if you end up trying to recover
deleted files or files that seem to be deleted - the recovery software
must be installed on and run from a different drive, and the recovered
data must be written to a different drive. By "different drive" I mean
something other than the problem drive.

It may be possible, on a Mac, to copy the entire drive to a new drive
that you can read in Windows (i.e., FAT32).

There is also software available online that lets a Windows computer
read a Mac drive. Look here (or Google):
http://ogasawalrus.com/blog/node/208

The link is for HFS Explorer, which I have used; it's free. There are
others, not all free.

I wish you luck - it seems like a real bug in the Mac system, and not
easy to fix.

Hi !

Yes , sure you can recovers all your lost data using the Kernel for mac software that performs a quick scan of your corrupt Mac drive to locate deleted files, formatted and corrupted partitions. Kernel Macintosh Data Recovery software is a non-destructive utility that helps you to recover your precious data from deleted, formatted and corrupted mac partitions.You can find it from http://www.datarecoverymac.com

Thanks
