I made a Ubuntu Live USB key so I can access my MacOS files without having to go to through the trouble of trying to access hidden folders and what-not. The Ubuntu usb works fine, other than the fact that I can't access MacOS files. I get this error code when I try to open the MacOS drive. Error code Any ideas on how to go about this, I'm OK with creating a new other type of live USB key to access my mac files btw.

  • APFS is a proprietary file system. There is a GitHub project that purports to read and write to APFS: https://github.com/sgan81/apfs-fuse – Nmath Aug 20 '21 at 23:09
  • You can create a [small] partition with a suitable file system for sharing files between Ubuntu and MacOS. exFAT and HFS+ (journaled) are two candidate file systems that can be read and written by both operating systems. Maybe it is easiest to have exFAT on a USB drive and write to it from the MacOS and then read from it into Ubuntu, but HFS+ (journaled) is more robust. See more details at this link (scroll down to the paragraph about MacOS). – sudodus Aug 21 '21 at 01:41
