Product Description:
FileSalvage is an extremely powerful data recovery tools designed to restore files that have been accidentally deleted, have become unreadable due to media faults, or were stored on a drive before it was re-initialized or formatted. It is device and file system independent, allowing the users to recover files from a normal Mac OS hard drive, USB key, Linux disk, Windows drive, FLASH card, scratched CD, and almost any other media or file system that can be recognized in Mac OS X.
FileSalvage is extremely straightforward. The new user interface allows data recovery to be accomplished with just a few clicks. A user can opt to undelete files that were trashed accidentally, salvage all the files from a device that may or may not be able to mount, or switch to an expert mode for greater flexibility to scan and recover the exact files he or she desires.
To further enhance the user experience, FileSalvage 6 also includes an Auto Rename feature. Unlike most data recovery software available on the market and the previous versions of FileSalvage, version 6 will attempt to reconstruct the file names of the more popular file formats (such as JPEG, MP3, M4A, and etc), making the recovered files much easier to identify.
One of the biggest developments since the release of Mac OS X, the Intel based Mac provides an astonishing level of performance. Running on Intel Macs, the latest version of FileSalvage is optimized to take advantage of the blazing speed, making scanning and recovering files much faster than on Power PC based machines. In addition to the Intel Mac optimization, free space scanning, a recovery feature that was only available before when running on Power PC based Mac, is now supported on Intel based Mac. The feature will focus the recovery on the free space areas of the drive, vastly cutting down the disk space and the time required for the task.
The latest update of FileSalvage is available on a dual-boot bootable DVD that will start up from either Power PC or Intel based machines.
Written specifically for Mac OS X, FileSalvage 6.1 includes powerful features that give the user excellent flexibility and control in data recovery:
- Risk free trial version - see what data can be recovered before you purchase.
- File Preview - see what you are going to get before you recover your deleted file.
- Auto Renamer- reconstructs file names of the popular file formats (JPEG, MP3, M4A, and etc),
- Easy-to-use interface - reduces data recovery process to a few clicks.
- Device and file system independent - allows recovery from almost any media.
- Works on faulty hardware - recovers data from mechanically unsounded disks or corrupted devices.
- Safety first - protects writing to the disk or device being salvaged from.
- Searches free space - limits FileSalvage to scan only the free space of a volume to recover files from.

hang up during first use - Version: 6.1.5, 4/6/2008 05:19AM PST
ralf.srama
I made an inspection to find deleted audio files. It found only
about 10% of the lost files. After the inspection finished,
the computer was inactive for 20 minutes and the screen
saver appeared. The system hang up in this configuration -
I had to do a hard reboot of Mac OS.
So the first "simple" use
of the software lead to a complete system hang up -
Bad experience, I will not use the software again and the money
is lost.
Mysterious installation process - Version: 6.1.5, 3/12/2008 10:05AM PST
Central Scrutinizer--2008
Sorry but I don't trust these utility sort of apps that spread their code all over my system. In my experience this results in background processes hogging CPU time or even mysterious "phone home" network traffic. Maybe FS doesn't do this, but how do I know? I just did a full reinstall to purge my drive of all the leftover turds from Techtool Pro - I'm not going to let another utility drop it's bread crumbs all over my system.
"A+" for effort, "D-" for bad documentation. This looks like a wonderful app. Tell me what it installs and I'll try it.
Now, having finally outgrown Nortons with an upgrade to OS X 10.4, I'm even more impressed with FileSalvage.
It found stuff that Data Rescue II never could. And it displayed results that made sense.
The ability (in Expert Mode) to specify the file type you're looking for -- be it audio, image or whatever -- means it's quicker. It doesn't spend time looking for deleted files you don't want to undelete anyway. It doesn't give you a huge list of randomly named files to wade through. And it allows you to preview many files, to check they're the right ones, before recovering them.
So cool!
