Q: Flashing question mark, suggestions not working
I have a 13" mid 2013 Macbook Pro. Everything was working fine tonight then the whole computer froze (while looking through Netflix). I manually reset the computer and it went to a white screen with a flashing question mark. I read suggestions and started it in safe mode. It started up in safe mode, so I restarted it again and it started normally. I re-opened an internet page and it froze again. I restarted it again and the blinking question mark came back. It will not start in safe mode anymore. I can't get past the blinking question mark.
When I hold the option key it doesn't let me select the HD, it just goes to internet recovery.
I've tried opening the utility manager. I click to verify disk and it says verified and will NOT let me click the buttons to repair. It says my capacity is 1.something GB. Which clearly is not right. Is the hard drive toast?
I NEED to get the files off the computer. I have pictures in iPhoto that are not backed up and I need them. If I re-install, will I lose the pictures?
