Please don't make duplicate threads about the same topic! :P

 

Try putting it in a different Windows PC and see if the problem continues. Also try using a different SD card. 

Yes, it's 2871 as in the year 2871. I traveled all this way, back in time, just to help you. And you thought your mama lied when she said you were special. -_-

Mac NTFS drivers are crap. They have been known to damage partitions/data on NTFS formatted drives. Put it back in the Mac and see if you can pull off the files on the card and then format it in a Windows PC and do not put it in your Mac again unless you get a different NTFS driver for your Mac like the Paragon NTFS for Mac.

 

If you cannot get the files from the card then download on of the free partition recovery tools from the net. Something like EAseUS partition recovery, which is a free program.

 

I have encountered this as well and ended up buying the Paragon NTFS driver for Mac. The poor NTFS driver included with the Mac OS is a fairly well documented problem and it will probably not be address as they don' t care about Windows.

                  Did I help you to fix your problem or at least did offer somewhat valuable advice? Consider giving my post a "informative" or "thumbs up".

I tried the EAseUS partition recovery tool and it would not work and the os still sees it as RAW unallocated is there anything else i can do

Did you try the data recovery option?
