I'm not familiar with Apple at all but am somewhat familiar with PCs (Windows).If all else fails I would think that the hard drive can be accessed directly (after being removed from the unit) and data can be retrieved that way.I've done something like that with Windows several times with good results

It “might” be able to...unless they have encrypted their hard drive. Then it is no use unless you can reverse socially engineer their password.

I say might, because I think there may be permissions associated with files that will preclude trying to copy or open them. I could be wrong there.

Good advice for something to try, mounting the drive as a non-boot volume.

A lot better than some of the Delta Bravos on this thread who couldn’t give a crap about a Freeper looking for help on a subject.
