The power button on my MacBook Pro stopped working. While I source a new one I'm trying to access and copy some files I need off the HDD which I have slaved through a USB connection.
When I connect the 2.5" HDD Ubuntu sees it but won't mount it. See screenshot Unable to mount MacBook HDD
Here is a screen shot of what the USB HDD looks like in disks. See screenshot 500GB HDD
I've tried these commands and got the below results. sudo mount /dev/sdb mount: /dev/sdb: can't find in /etc/fstab. sudo mount /dev/sdb2 mount: /dev/sdb2: can't find in /etc/fstab. sudo mount -t hfsplus -o force,rw /dev/sdb /media/mntpoint mount: /media/mntpoint: mount point does not exist.
It also seems the thing to do on these kind of issues is to run lsusb so the results are below Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0a5c:216c Broadcom Corp. BCM43142A0 Bluetooth Device Bus 001 Device 003: ID 05c8:036e Cheng Uei Precision Industry Co., Ltd (Foxlink) Webcam Bus 001 Device 002: ID 8087:8000 Intel Corp.

I'm a total newbie and have no idea where to go from here, can anyone help?
