Have you accidentally deleted your precious videos of your family meeting? How did you approach the problem?
As we know, if we mistakenly deleted some videos on Mac, we can easily get them back from Trash (the place any files that are deleted from the Finder in Mac OS X go to). However, what if we emptied the Trash? In this situation, can we recover lost videos?
