        Try First Aid first (it comes with the OS). If that doesn't work,
you can always try TechTool Pro - just make sure its a recent version that
supports HFS+ volumes ... otherwise, it could cause more problems. :)

        If that doesn't work, try the other two. If they don't work, I
would go find a disk recovery specialist...

        However, from experience, I can tell you that the problem is
probably just a MountCheck flag issue - the OS thinks the disk is
unmountable... a quick run of First Aid should fix it up really quickly.

                                Sincerely,
