MacDive Forums

I'm not exactly sure when the dives went missing, or how, but there are a handful of dives (3 in fact) that have disappeared from MacDive. They are all dives in Vanuatu but spread across 2 years (2013 and 2014). Assuming I have a TimeMachine backup that has the data, is there a method for extracting the dives from the SQLite DB and re-inserting into the current one? Are there other methods?

I noticed in the ~/Library/Application Support/MacDive folder there are a few "Dive_Log_Original_<devicename>.sqlite" files with file dates that may have the dives in them...any way I can extract the data from these?

Hi there,

Not easily. Most of the files are for old versions of MacDive (intermittent backups) so you'd end up doing a lot of mucking around.

If you can compress the contents of your MacDive data folder (or the files from Time Machine also) and send me the whole lot, along with a bit more specific information about exactly which dives would be missing, I can try to recover them for you.

Thanks Nick - I've sent an email to "support@..." with the details. Really appreciate your help.

Replied back with info, we'll get it sorted for ya.
