Hi. I was using an external hard drive with my mac. Everything has been working fine for the past few months. Just the other day, my computer could no longer find my external hard drive. It said that it could not mount and if I wanted to initialize. I didn't want to initialize because I would have lost all my information. I ran disk repair on my external hard drive. It gave me this message:
Repairing disk "mine".
Checking HFS Plus volume.
Checking Extents Overflow file.
Checking Catalog file.//in red font
Incorrect size for file scene4.jpg
(It should be 36864 instead of 206614856)
Invalid node structure//back in black font
Rebuilding Catalog B-tree.
Repair completed.My question is if I can somehow just get into my hard drive and delete that one corrupted file? Or is everything on my disk ruined. How would I fix something like this without losing information? I don't mind losing a few files, but I'd be sad if I had to initialize the entire disk.
