Hi,

I have an external hard drive with some 50,000+ jpgs and x3f raw files on it. After plugging it in for the first time in 10 months, I found that all my files would not open because they were "an unrecognizable file type or corrupt." Please, I'm close to freaking out; what do I do?

Thank you,
DreamsOnStrike

Eject the drive, Restart the Mac, reMount the Disk...

Plug it back in, to the Mac.

P.S. drives die... You should never have a single copy of a valued digital resource.
