[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1639414, member: 56379"] Sorry…I forgot about that. Losing data is not a good thing. According to this Diskwarrior 4 link: [url=http://www.alsoft.com/DiskWarrior/diskwarrior4supp.html]DiskWarrior 4 Support[/url] You probably have a Diskwarrior 4 disc…but this disk is not able to boot your iMac…and the link says something about a new disk being available at some point…so I don't know if you have this. The link also mentions that Diskwarrior 4.4 is compatible with Yosemite (the latest Mac OS)…do you have this version? So you shouldn't have to get Disk Warrior 5. Of course retina iMac's have no internal optical drive…so you would need an external optical drive to boot the computer from the DiskWarrior 4 disk (even if you have the correct/newest disc). - Nick [/QUOTE]
