#TECH TOOL PRO 10 TARGET MODE INSTALL#
It's your Mac, do with it what you will, but if you choose to install such junk you own the consequences, which may be that it trashes your Mac. None of them have TTP or any similarly clever utilities installed. I maintain many Macs for many people and have done so for many years. If you want to keep the HD in service despite these cautions, I recommend you erase it as recommended by Micromat, do not reinstall TTP, and if it fails again replace it - also as recommended by Micromat. Having a reliable backup strategy makes events like this a non-event. Hard disks are cheap, and backups are essential. I do recommend that you extract its data, then replace the drive.Ī failed HD will fail again, every time. Most likely, your HD is already in a failed state, so I don't recommend relying upon it. To be clear, Apple's Disk Utility accomplished what TTP could not.
#TECH TOOL PRO 10 TARGET MODE MAC#
I decided to run the Mac Pro in Target Disk mode and run Disk Utility from my laptop on the suspect disk - it repaired (or so it says) the disk and now I'm copying ("restoring") all contents onto another disk that I can run further tests on later. Your very complaint illustrated that it was unable to do that. TTP and similar utilities may be used to "repair" a damaged HD for the purposes of extracting whatever data remains intact, after an irretrievable data loss event has already occurred. Solution: erase the volume, if it happens again replace the drive. An example is the following: ad-blocks-what-do-i-do7 TTP is also unnecessary in that it conveys no benefit. On the other hand OS X updates will very frequently reveal incompatibilities with third party software, especially those that modify the Mac's operating system. The only caveat to defragging is that you have to disable journaling on the volume you want to defrag, and boot from the TechTool disk, another hard drive, or in target disk mode if you have a Mac desktop around with Firewire (like me).
#TECH TOOL PRO 10 TARGET MODE UPDATE#
Lacking an overwhelming response from a representative sample of millions of Mac users running the latest OS X release, any premise that the update caused this problem must be logically flawed. I love the program - haven't had the problems others have mentioned. You also asked if anyone else had been similarly affected. In that case the Apple Support article is the appropriate place to begin troubleshooting.
You explained that your Mac was unable to start. I realize you considered my response unhelpful, but my answer remains unchanged: uninstall it. Now is there a chance you could find another moment to explain WHY TTP is such a problem ? I've used it for more than 10 years and it's only been an asset.
