FileSalvage v6 by SubRosaSoft - If you've lost data and you need to get it back, FileSalvage is your best choice. FileSalvage is the ultimate Mac OS X tool for data recovery. It recovers deleted files, damaged or missing volumes and even formatted disks!
FileSalvage 6 is a set of extremely powerful data recovery tools designed to restore files that have been accidentally deleted, become unreadable due to media faults, or stored on a drive before it was re-initialized or formatted. It is device and file system independent, allowing the users to
recover files from a normal Mac OS hard drive, USB key, Linux disk, Windows drive, FLASH card, scratched CD, and almost any other media or file system that can be recognized in Mac OS X.
FileSalvage 6 adds the ability for the user to define their own custom file type. To recover a file format that is not in the current list of supported and known types, the user simply drags & drops a dozen or so files of the same format into FileSalvage to analyze and process. Upon completion, the new profile will be added to the known formats. This flexibility enables the user to recover files created by applications that are either too new or uncommon to be initially supported by FileSalvage 6.
FileSalvage 6 also adds the ability to search for embedded files. Already a feature found in SubRosaSoft’s MacForensicsLab, searching embedded files will yield files contained within other files, such as web caches or mbox format email folders. This new feature will allow the user to recover more files.
The latest update of FileSalvage is available on a dual-boot bootable DVD that will start up from either a Power PC or Intel based Macintosh.
Written specifically for Mac OS X, FileSalvage 6 includes powerful features that give the user excellent flexibility and control in data recovery.
Data recovery software for Mac OS X that will retrieve files that have been deleted (undelete), rescue data from corrupted media, and recover lost files from your hard drive or storage devices.
Preview data before you recover it
If you've lost data and you need to get it back, FileSalvage is your best choice. FileSalvage is the ultimate Mac OS X tool for data recovery. It recovers deleted files, damaged or missing volumes and even formatted disks.
An exhaustive scan of the drive is performed to locate lost partitions and files. You are presented with a view of files so that you can copy lost files to another safe location such as your iDisk, a networked drive or external drive.
FileSalvage recovers data from hard drives, CD-ROM, external devices (Zip, Jaz, Syquest), digital camera cards, Apple iPods, and much more! FileSalvage is compatible with Apple Mac OS X.

System Requirements:
Apple Macintosh Computer

External hard drive or networked drive to save
salvaged files to.
CD/DVD-ROM Drive (for CD Installation or Boot DVD)
FileSalvage
can recover most deleted files which have not subsequently been written
over. Due to the way data is distributed when being written to a drive,
there are still a decent chance of recovering your files even if you
have a copied small amount of data onto your drive since deleting the
files.
Safety
first - FileSalvage will never write to the disk or device
you are salvaging data from. This makes the software risk free, as
it does not attempt to repair a disk but instead simply reads it,
and copies the relevant files to a destination of your chosing.
Works anywhere -
FileSalvage is device and file system independent. You can recover
files from a hard drive, digital camera, USB key, PC disk, FLASH card,
scratched CD's, and most storage media that work with your computer.
Searches free space - On HFS+ volumes, the user can limit FileSalvage to scan only the free space of a volume to recover files from. This produces huge speed efficiency and means that the task of recovering files can be accomplished much quicker. By default, “Undelete” scans for “free space” whilst “Salvage” will scan the entire space on a device.
Recovers
files after a disk or device has been formatted - Got an initialized
disk or other device that had files you want back? No problem, as
long as you didn't perform a secure erase, FileSalvage will recover
your files from the newly initialized drive.
Recovers
files from corrupt media - Data corruption does not stop FileSalvage from working. In fact it will happily process an entire corrupted file system for intact data and recover whole or partial files wherever it finds them.
FileSalvage
works on faulty hardware - FileSalvage can also recover data from mechanically unsound devices. The software uses several tried and tested methods, which in addition SubRosaSoft has improved upon, to read the same piece of information and to automatically skip of areas of the file system that are fully unreadable. By employing these methods, FileSalvage is able to recover data from sources that may have appeared to other software to be too physically broken to use.
File Preview -
Allows you to preview the files before you recover them.
FileSalvage should be your first option to recover your important data,
before you risk your data trying to repair the disk.
Recovers files from devices even
if they fail to mount or only partially operate.
Recover your whole device or just the files
you have recently deleted.
Does not alter the original device.
Simple streamlined user interface.
Can FileSalvage work on the same physical disk from which the system has booted?
Yes, you can run FileSalvage on any locally connected drive. You will need another drive (such as a network connected drive, external drive, or Apple iDisk) to store the data recovered.
Does this mean I do not need to backup my data?
No safety system can beat the security of having a regular backup. SubRosaSoft strongly recommends you check your disk for integrity (using Apple's DiskUtility or Prosoft's Drive Genius) and back up your drive often using applications
such as SubRosaSoft's CopyCatX.
