My iMac just died after 5 years of daily useā¦ with movies and big projects in development that might be lost forever.
Apple is a brand Iāve always liked, but since everything is integrated into the screen, itās much more common to lose the hard driveās data when these things happen.
I feel fucking terrible.
Luckily, some illustrations and the next chapter of Meiās project are safe on an external driveā¦ So Iām able to upload some content the next week.
But other projects, like the Zenless Zone Zero animation, were only saved on my computerā¦ And knowing that all that work could be lost makes me feel truly devastated.
As I said on Twitter, I know thereās nothing you can do to help me, but I just need to vent. Just as I share my good moments with you, I also want to share the terrible ones like this.
Thank you all for being there š

Hello
There are data recovery services than can do some pretty amazing things to recover data, even from Apple products. That said, they aren't cheap and even they cant guarantee success š¬ In any case, I hope you'll come to terms with the loss and continue moving forward. Oh, and look into implementing the 3-2-1 backup rule. It's a well known maxim in IT, and it's saved my bacon a few times.
Upsetting. But you'll oull though just focus on what you can do
Iām so sorry for that youāre fans are here to support you ^^
Thank you so much, I been only one day without computer and I already feel strange xD
As someone that works for Geek Squad, Apple makes it nearly impossible to recover data once it reaches a point like that. Likely the drive in the computer is proprietary, nothing like a traditional SSD or M.2 SSD, always feels the worst.
Wellā¦ Apple assured me that I would not be able to recover my files, so I took the computer to another repair shop; they told me there is a chance to save the files, but it is not yet guaranteed. I hope itās posible
Hope your work can be saved if any.
I wish you all the luck in the world ā¤ļø
Thank you
Take it to an Apple Store they should be able to extract the SSD and recover your files.
No, is the first thing I done, and they only proposed me changing the piece what makes everything get deleted. Thatās why I choosed to try to recover the data going to other store. But thanks for the help
Is this the end? ššš¢
Noooo! But it will take some time until I have it repared or a new computer
Shit... sorry to hear that. Hope you can get them back. Might be worth starting an archive
š¤š¤ hopefully the data can be recovered
.......
Oh no... N
