I have a MBP and i have a 300gb ext harddrive that was perfect till yesturday
when i went in to windows and somehow changed the harddrive to ms-dos format without formating the harddive. Now both OS want to format the hard drive beacause they cant read it and i was wondering is there a way to change the format back to OS-x format withour formating because the information is still on the hardrive just not in the right format. If windows can do change it that easy Mac should be able to turn it back easy to. Theres hours of work on the harddrive and if anyone can help me not have to format the hardrive i will be forever greatful.I also run initialize then run disk repair and a error comes up and the fast aid fails.
Can any help me
