Mac data recovery poses special challenges. While most operating systems can be accessed with a simple scan to find deleted folders and files. Apple Mac desktop and laptop computers are designed with several features for fast file access and protection that can tremendously hamper the process to recover Mac files. Still the need for Mac recovery is based on no different criteria than the need for Windows or Linux recovery, and in the long run the solution is still the same. That is, purchase target Mac recovery software.
Apart from non-recoverable non-software issues such as dropping a computer or any other catastrophic occurrence, the causes for your needing quality Mac recovery software are as follows:

If you have inadvertently reformatted your Mac before remembering to back up data.
If the volume of data you need has been blocked from access. (This is usually a result of the Mac OS X disk verification process)
When one has inadvertently deleted wanted files.
Should an improper start up delete the Apple partition map.
If an Apple catalogue file created by disk zeroing should become corrupted.
Or should Apple disk verification and repair fail.
