I am using a Mac, model name A1534.


I have tried bootcamp Windows 10 before. I have not much more problems with that but it was too slowly. So, I have decided to install Windows 7. But Bootcamp doesn't support it anymore, so I installed Virtual Box.


I tried to install Windows 7 a couple of times with Virtual Box, but while in installation progress, Windows 7 couldn't see my hard drive (I have prepared my partition as NTFS with using Disk Utility).


After struggling many more, I restart my mac, then I saw a folder image with a question mark blinking on that.


I tried thousand of codes for 2 days. I installed Yosemite on a flash drive, and open my computer. Disk Utility can't repair or verify my hard drive like that way too.


I can't mount my hard drive. I tried many times. I don't want to format my computer because I have lots of document on that.


I think it's logical problem, I see like that when I tried. How can I repair my disk? I need help.



1)



This is the problem I think.



Block 2 is not an MDB or Volume Header

Block xxxxx is not an MDB or Volume Header


I forgot which codes I used to take these error messages.

I tried most of them the codes below. but nothing has changed.



-d debugging information.
-D flags extra debugging information.
0x0001 Informational
0x0002 Error
0x0010 Extended attributes
0x0020 Overlapped extents
0x0033 include all
-b bytes size of the physical blocks used by -B
-B path Output the files containing the physical blocks listed in the file path.
The file contains decimal, octal (with leading 0) or hexadecimal (with leading 0x) physical block numbers, separated by white space, relative to the start of the partition, For block numbers relative to the start of the device, subtract the block number of the start of the partition.
The size of a physical block is given with the -b option; the default is 512 bytes per block.
-f with -p force check of `clean' file systems,
otherwise force check and repair journaled HFS+ file systems.
-g generate output strings in GUI format. This option is used when another application with a graphical user interface (like Mac OS X Disk Utility) is invoking the fsck_hfs tool.
-x generate output strings in XML (plist) format. implies -g
-l Lock down the file system (not limit parallel check as in other versions of fsck> and perform a test-only check. This makes it possible to check a file system that is currently mounted, although no repairs can be made.
-m rwxrwxrwx permissions for the lost+found directory if it is created (suggest 700 ed). orphaned files and directories are moved to the lost+founddirectory (located at the root of the volume). The default mode is 01777.(bad)!
-c size size of the cache used by fsck_hfs internally. Bigger size can result in better performance but can result in deadlock when used with -l. Decimal, octal, or hexadecimal number.
If the number ends with a k,m or g
-p Preen the specified file systems.
-q Causes fsck_hfs to quickly check whether the volume was unmounted cleanly. If the volume was unmounted cleanly, then the exit status is 0. If the volume was not unmounted cleanly, then the exit status will be non-zero. In either case, a message is printed to standard output describing whether the volume was clean or dirty.
-y Always attempt to repair any damage that is found.
-n Never
-E exit (with a value of 47) if it encounters any major errors. A ``major error'' is considered one which would impact using the volume in normal usage; an incon- sistency which would not impact such use is considered ``minor'' for this option. Only valid with the -n option.
-S scan the entire device looking for I/O errors. It will attempt to map the blocks with errors to names, similar to the -B option.
-R flags Rebuilds the requested btree. The following flags are supported: a Attribute btree
c Catalog btree
e Extents overflow btree
Requires free space on the file system for the new btree file, and if fsck_hfs is able to traverse each of the nodes in the requested btree successfully. Rebuilding btrees is not supported on HFS Standard volumes.
-r Rebuild the catalog btree. This is synonymous with -Rc. Because of inconsistencies between the block device and the buffer cache, the raw device should always be used.


Any ideas???

If you have data on the internal drive that you need to save, perhaps your best bet will be to create an external boot drive (at least temporarily).

Then, you can boot from the external drive, and hopefully get the internal drive mounted in the finder.

IF you can get it mounted in the finder, you can begin copying things from it to another drive, to "get them to a safe place".

What I would suggest:
1. Get a USB flashdrive 32gb or larger.
2. Boot to internet recovery (press power on button and hold down "command-option-R" until "internet symbol" appears. You may need to enter your wifi password.)
3. When you get to the installer, QUIT it for now.
4. Open Disk Utility
5. Erase the USB flashdrive to Mac OS extended with journaling enabled
6. Quit DU and re-open the OS installer
7. "Aim" the OS installer at the flashdrive and see if it will install a fresh copy of the OS onto it.
8. If successful, create an account on the flashdrive install, so you can log into it and get to the finder
9. If you can, can you "see" the INTERNAL drive at all?
10. If you can, you can copy your data somewhere else, at least for the moment.
 
thanks for your interest. but I already tried that. I installed Yosemite on a flash disk. I started up the computer like that but I can't mount my internal hard drive this way too.

I used applejack program and restarted my computer in single user mode. I tried codes above too. Nothing changed.

I also tried to back up internal hard drive to a windows pc. I settled up all, but it only backs up the flash drive. I can't choose my internal hard drive too.

there should be a way I think. How can I pass over those blocks? Any script or codes for that?

I tried to install Windows 7 a couple of times with Virtual Box, but while in installation progress, Windows 7 couldn't see my hard drive (I have prepared my partition as NTFS with using Disk Utility).

Think this is the problem, and your files are maybe lost now.

When using VirtualBox, or any other virtualization software, there is no need to format anything. The virtualization will handle the needed filesystem type virtually. In the case of VirtualBox, the entire VM is kept in a file with a .vdi extension on the Mac's native filesystem (be it HFS or APFS) and to Windows looks like NTFS via the software.

Sounds as if you might have inadvertently damaged the format of your drive when you tried to create a NTFS partition.

Yep, if you have overwritten your primary partition with an NTFS partition then you have effectively reformatted your hard disk, with a disk format that Mac OS can't write to (Mac OS can read NTFS). If you have no backup then your best hope of getting anything back is to take it to a specialist data recovery centre, but that is expensive and you may not get anything back.

I tried most of them the codes below. but nothing has changed.



-d debugging information.
-D flags extra debugging information.
0x0001 Informational
0x0002 Error
0x0010 Extended attributes
0x0020 Overlapped extents
0x0033 include all
-b bytes size of the physical blocks used by -B
-B path Output the files containing the physical blocks listed in the file path.
The file contains decimal, octal (with leading 0) or hexadecimal (with leading 0x) physical block numbers, separated by white space, relative to the start of the partition, For block numbers relative to the start of the device, subtract the block number of the start of the partition.
The size of a physical block is given with the -b option; the default is 512 bytes per block.
-f with -p force check of `clean' file systems,
otherwise force check and repair journaled HFS+ file systems.
-g generate output strings in GUI format. This option is used when another application with a graphical user interface (like Mac OS X Disk Utility) is invoking the fsck_hfs tool.
-x generate output strings in XML (plist) format. implies -g
-l Lock down the file system (not limit parallel check as in other versions of fsck> and perform a test-only check. This makes it possible to check a file system that is currently mounted, although no repairs can be made.
-m rwxrwxrwx permissions for the lost+found directory if it is created (suggest 700 ed). orphaned files and directories are moved to the lost+founddirectory (located at the root of the volume). The default mode is 01777.(bad)!
-c size size of the cache used by fsck_hfs internally. Bigger size can result in better performance but can result in deadlock when used with -l. Decimal, octal, or hexadecimal number.
If the number ends with a k,m or g
-p Preen the specified file systems.
-q Causes fsck_hfs to quickly check whether the volume was unmounted cleanly. If the volume was unmounted cleanly, then the exit status is 0. If the volume was not unmounted cleanly, then the exit status will be non-zero. In either case, a message is printed to standard output describing whether the volume was clean or dirty.
-y Always attempt to repair any damage that is found.
-n Never
-E exit (with a value of 47) if it encounters any major errors. A ``major error'' is considered one which would impact using the volume in normal usage; an incon- sistency which would not impact such use is considered ``minor'' for this option. Only valid with the -n option.
-S scan the entire device looking for I/O errors. It will attempt to map the blocks with errors to names, similar to the -B option.
-R flags Rebuilds the requested btree. The following flags are supported: a Attribute btree
c Catalog btree
e Extents overflow btree
Requires free space on the file system for the new btree file, and if fsck_hfs is able to traverse each of the nodes in the requested btree successfully. Rebuilding btrees is not supported on HFS Standard volumes.
-r Rebuild the catalog btree. This is synonymous with -Rc. Because of inconsistencies between the block device and the buffer cache, the raw device should always be used.


Any ideas???
i also got the same problem, can you help me if you solved it?
