i have a dual 1.8 powerpc g5 with osx 10.3.9.
i recently reset it and when i logged back in, it was the default background, and all of my files specific to that user on the desktop are gone. there is a significant amount of data, about 50gb, that is not accessible to me now.
all of my applications are still installed but act as if it is the first time they've been opened. other files within the drive are there also, but only in the drive, not in "desktop, documents, movies, music, pictures" there is nothing in my library either, (itunes etc...)
it seems to me that it isn't mounting the locked filevault guy for my user. there is a disk image in that folder now called anthonypelino.sparseimage. anthonypelino being the name of the "drive"
also, i was looking through the logs and this caught my attention...
Feb 1 22:46:51 localhost loginwindow[182]: Error mounting home directory disk image (99).
...
Feb 1 22:49:01 localhost diskarbitrationd[88]: disk1s2 hfs CF098716-4A77-3332-9968-98902A3E2FA3 anthonypelino [not mounted]
i didn't know if that has any relation to my problem but i thought i'd include it.
any help would be greatly appreciated, i really have no idea how to go about getting the data, as i'm just a recent convert.
