Resolve "No mountable File System" From Mac OS X

Mac operating system comprises of DMG (Disk Mounted Graphics) files that are dealt like real disks. These image files have normal hard drive volume that enable users to easily compress as well as make their data secure by keeping password protected. So it works on both file distribution and security functions. DMG file can easily be created, with the help of Disk utility in Mac OS X 10.3 and later version.

After mounting user can easily access the data through DMG files, but in some cases such files cannot be mounted and due to this reason users can not access the data and chances of data loss increases. For example: While users were trying to mount DMG on the drive with the help of Finder to access the data from the file, user might encounter below given error message:
"No mountable File System"

Due to this error message the entire stored data becomes inaccessible and worst happens when the stored data gets deleted. And in order to make the access of these data again it is important to known the main cause of data loss and then use data recovery program to sort this problem.

This problem may occur due to many reason like improper system shut down, virus infection, or while user try to mount DMG then operating system does not get the file system in proper format to mount the image. In this case the file system is either missing or damaged. Due to this reason finally the DMG file becomes unusable and user faces a lot of problem due to data loss.

To resolve this problem user can easily use inbuilt Disk utility for checking the integrity of file it also detects error and then try to fix it. But sometimes when the problem is very severe then this disk utility fails to resolve the problem. In this situation user can format the system and after this "No mountable File System" problem gets resolved, but entire stored data gets deletd and to restore deleted data user can try third party Mac Hard Drive Recovery Software.
