Okay, first time poster here..

I have an Apple iBook G4 that had been giving me some challenges recently and an external hard drive that has video clips on it as well.

In order to get some video off the drive, I hooked it up to a PC and then couldn't see anything so downloaded MacDrive for the PC.

It saw the drive but wouldn't read anything off of it at all - so did a 'Change' to the drive, which ultimately didn't help because still couldn't see anything.

Got the iBook working again and hooked the drive up... of course there seems to be NOTHING on it now.

Think that I may have formatted by mistake and not quite sure if there is anything that I can do to get data off that drive. Is there any Apple software that could read things off the drive?

Thanks for ANY help.

Shawn
