HELP ideas for that dreaded problem:

Posted:
in Genius Bar edited January 2014
My firewire Hard Drive, where I have my complete iTunes library (almost 40Gigs) is suddenly being recognized as a disk that needs formatting . . .



What can I do . . . so far I tried DiskUtility . . . and when I select Repair or Recover . . it simply will not be recognized



I am currently working on getting a Diskwarrior thing to work with . . . but are there any other tricks in such a case . . . .I am a little desperate as this is very important stuff and I had not backed up my Library in a long time . . . with some of my favorite stuff added since the backup . . . .



aargh!
