My iMac is old, I won’t deny you that but it has always been in good shape. Recently, during the pandemic, it stopped starting up, taking a loong time to load and eventually turning itself off. I did the hard reset by pressing the button in its back for 10 seconds, turned it on again and then it took me to “Os X utilites” where I chose “Disk Repair”. Following quick instructions I found on the internet, I was able to try to use the “First Aid” function with no success. I got the message “First Aid process has failed. If possible back up the data on this volume. Click done to continue”- which makes me very sad since I have legal documents I depend on to defend myself against mexican authoritarian corruption. I wish to be able to take out the data with external drives, I hope it’s possible. [br]

I know those types of things should always be backed up, and I do have some of it, but not all and it is very important.

I know those types of things should always be backed up, and I do have some of it, but not all and it is very important. I got involved as a witness of a crime and the criminal was famous and had me jailed with no legal reason, in México it’s easy to buy judges for like 7 grand. So, when it rains, it pours, but I know I can rescue something from this. Thanks again for reading and considering. Saludos!
