Along with the release of iPad Air, iPad mini with Retina display and MacBook Pro with Retina display, Apple presented the newest Mac OS X Mavericks. All Mac users can download and upgrade it for free in iTunes store. When enjoying the awesome features that Mavericks brings, what should you do if you accidentally deleted important data on your new Mavericks computer? There lots of data recovery software, but not all of them work great for mavericks. This guide is going to show you how to choose a great data recovery software and recover data in Mavericks in steps.

Tips of choosing applicable data recovery software

1. It provides you a free trial version, so that you can decide if it's worthy of paying.
2. It's a Mac version. More importantly, it's compatible with Mavericks.
3. It supports recovery of the file type that you lost.

If the program matches above conditions, you can have a try, but don't download and install it on the partition where you lost your data, or the deleted data will be overwritten and gone forever. Still don't have an idea? You can have my recommendation here: Wondershare Data Recovery for Mac. This program meets all the requirements, actually more than that.
