I used the memory card into my cell phone, and it worked fine. When I inserted it into my laptop to put new music on, it told me I needed to format the SD card before using it. I have many photos on the card that I do not want to lose."
We have a USB compact flash card with our wedding album (around 70GB). The devices keep disconnecting when I try to copy the photos and videos. The thumbnail photos are visible when inserting the USB, but once we try to open an image, it gives us an error."
I have a USB memory stick with some vital information on it. The drive is detected in Windows under disk management but shows 0MB with no media. I have looked at other data recovery methods but must now resort to the professionals."
I mistakenly formatted my SD card while shooting a video. When I tried to recover the still images, they were recovered, but the videos would not play. It shows just the thumbnail for a second, and the rest of the video is green with a loud (shhh) sound."
I have a 512 GB SD card used in a camera to take some pictures; the SD card is suddenly no longer readable. I can't afford to lose the images on the card. Can you please assist?"
My laptop crashed, and I hope to recover photos taken in December last year; I am a wedding photographer and only use one memory card. I have tried D.I.Y. data recovery software and could recover about 10GB, but only the recent files can be viewed. The older files were recovered but can't be viewed. Could you guys please help, as it's my last option?"
I accidentally bumped my memory stick while reaching for something else. It is slightly bent, but the laptop doesn't recognise it when I plug it in."
The camera battery failed during recording and corrupted all files on my 128Gb SD Card. The SD card was immediately removed after battery failure. The file has been copied to external storage, but the SD card was left as is after battery failure. I tried Recover_mp4.exe, but the file plays but with artefacts."
I have a 32GB SD card that I use on my tablet. The tablet reads the SD card, but all the data on the SD card are missing (photos and videos). I want to recover the missing photos and videos."t to lose."
I have a USB SD card that I use to transfer files. The card, however, gets hot when connected directly to my laptop. I used a USB hub to avoid that. Suddenly, it stopped working (not showing up on three different computers), and I need to recover all the files on the USB drive."
