WOW...
How can I thank you man...?
I`m photographer and my 4tb backup disk was not working properly, your video solved it...!
I already been in the computer for more than 10 hrs trying to fix it.
You know about tech stress? I was 1000% above the exploding line.
Right now its seems to be working, I`m going to restart and see.
Thank you, you truly save my ass today.
Best wishes for you and your people, stay safe, and may all good things come your way always.
P.S: that jump when it says it might erase the content was one of the bravest things I have done in a long long time.
I`m sorry to say that it works in the moment, but after restarting the computer the problem returns, any advice?
You just saved my 4TB drive with my life's work. Thank you! Thank you!
doest erase you info this method?
Thanks for taking the time to do these things....Why are Apple masking things more difficult, wouldn’t have a clue without these videos TY
Because they are disgusting People that just want to take as much money they can from you
This was the MOST HELPFUL of all the videos I’ve watched. MANY THANKS!
You’re welcome!
Hey Gemsbok, what if my damaged disk has several partitions and one of them is the one not mounting? How can I mount it or repair it? Thanks
Thank you so much for making this! This helped a lot! 👍👍
You’re welcome!!
This video helped me repair my macbook, I owe the people behind this alot... mentally, physically and alot more. Seriously I have gain back some things that mean alot to me, I will take measures to back up those things. Thank you again.
Some say, the only way to fix broken partitions is to re-install OSX which fixes previous boot partition problems without erasing your data.This is assuming the HDD hasn't completely failed
Thank you for taking the time to share this, helped me a lot.
Great Stuff and thanks for your time, however it will be great if you added the actual command as text as this will be really helpful -
Thank you so much! This fixed an SD problem I had!
By any chance is there a command that would change the partition scheme on the drive? About 12 years ago I converted my Pismo HDD to MBR from APM, and I cannot boot it now, so I wan`t to convert it back to original somehow.
"A GUID Partition Table (GPT) partitioning scheme is required (-69773)" I am receiving this message.. Great video. Could you tell me what might be the problem with my drive, please?
have you got the problem-solved about this?
I have the same error, what is the solution for this, any idea?
Me too *cries*
I have the same problem with Catalina.
Did ya sort it out? getting the same
Your video on the diskutil is great. I'm in the process of making a clone copy of the disk but thought of using the new SDD and formatting as AFPS encrypted and re-running CCC but warning comes up that the machine may not start properly etc etc. Not sure if that would work anyway.
Not sure if you have worked out a work around but everything says that Mojave will not operate Time Machine due to format not being encrypted. Is there a way to work around this problem that you miraculously discovered. I can't upgrade to 64 bit as my accounting software is still the old 32 bit AccountEdge which works fine.
Cheers
Ok, cool, followed the steps and it told me at the end ... Problems were encountered during repair of the partition map
Error: -69854: A disk with a mount point is required. Different scenario for me... hahaha ???
You are checking an ext hard drive can the same commands be used to check and repair the internal Macintosh-HD drive via terminal in recovery mode?
Hi how you doing... I follow all the steps in your video.. at the end the Mac mounts the external hdd but then I can do nothing more.. does this mean the hdd it finished??? or is anything else I can do???
Thanks in advance
What if the plugged in disk never even shows up?
Jump to @1:50 will save your life
Please get intouch with me im trying to reinstall the os on it and somehow the macintosh hd is gone and recovery is locked and wont let me reinstall ve tried everything its stuck in os utilities im stuck im having a headavhe from it
Hello all! I know this is a late comment, but I have followed all the directions and still seem to get this error messsage after creating new volumes for mounting -
mount: exec /Library/Filesystems/HFS+.fs/Contents/Resources/mount_HFS+ for /Volumes/New: No such file or directory
mount: /Volumes/New failed with 72
Does this mean that my drive is toast and have to hire a pro? Its all my past business data and im hoping to mount it for a backup so i can move on! Any help would be very appreciated thank you all.
great stuff!!
Hi there, I came across your video while searching how can I pull files from an old Windows laptop's hard drive. I was able to unscrew the hard drive from the (Dell) laptop and I purchased a shell case that allows you to put the hard drive in it to act like an external hard drive. I've hooked it up to my Mac, but nothing comes up when I try to find it. I tried using the tips in your tutorial, but was unsuccessful. The drive does lit up and vibrates from time to time so I know there is some type of connection. I just can't seem to locate the drive itself on my Mac. Any suggestions or ideas on what to do would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advanced for your time.
If I run start up Command S and fsck_apfs -y, I get a whole bunch of y's so how long will it take if it's a 1tb SSD?
what if there is still error and still not mounting ? Is there other option?
you're a freakin legend. Thank you
Error repairing map: Input/output error (5)
Is there any other solution to mount the drive, if its either not showing in disk utility, nor in the terminal? I only see the Hard Drive in System Information under USB. In my case I cant use the commands, because I dont see anywhere the BSD name diskxsy…
I did same as you said but while repairing got an error repairing map input/output error 5. Please help me out.

Thanks, I tried but doesn't works. It writes me " Nonexistent, unknown, or damaged partition map scheme

@@rv-us6xkMy case too! Could you fix it?
Thanks for this. Great walk through. I'm trying to boot off an external disk which is a clone of my previous laptop. This has always worked, but not on High Sierra. "the disk you selected could not be verified" is message I get when selecting it in Startup Disk. It mounts fine, is showing no problems when verifying in Terminal. Any thoughts? Many thanks.
Jeroen You’re supposed to reformat the external disk first.
Hi,tried to repair internal disk. Got the message : « Error repairing map: POSIX reports: Input/output error 5 »

Hi. I tried to use Terminal on the El Capitan System to repair an external hard drive. Terminal returned the following message: "Error repairing map: MediaKit reports bad partition or no map found (-5324)". Can I still repair the HD? Can I solve this problem? Is there software to solve the problem?
That is my case! Could you fix it?
thanks! thanks! thanks!
Hi, thank you for this very helpful and straight forward video. Unfortunately I have an exFat formatted drive (formatted using a Mac), and the volume, I believe, was corrupted or compromised while connected to a Synology NAS, for backing up data, ironically.. I tried this repair in command line, but received this message... "Unable to repair this whole disk: A GUID Partition Table (GPT) partitioning scheme is required (-69773)
" Any suggestions? Most if not all of the data was backed up, but it's an edit drive so I'd really like to get the volume back so I can preserve the file structure I had for Premiere Pro. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Can you make a video for if it says “File system verify or repair failed”? I have a brand new hard drive and I’ve tried so many things already and it’s still not working.

COULD ERASE (Y/N)? The whole point of this video is to save the data because you can't back up if it does not read the data in the first place.
