Hmm. What do you do when...

[darklight]

You take your memory card out of your camera,
Put the card into the reader,
Open the folder..
and..

The bloody folder is empty.
I had some photos on there that... urgh. I didnt get round to backing up the card. I messed up. I think im going to cry. lol. Funny how doing something like that can make you feel so bloody sick. Oh and dont say "you should have backed it up" I realise that now. lol.
So the point of this is: BACKUP YOUR MEMORY CARDS!!

Na, It didnt work. Was strange though, because it recovered stuff on another chip thats two years old and didnt recover anything for this chip when the stuff was deleted either yesterday or today. Strange! But thanks for the link!

What timing, i just did a back up and clean for my camera card.
Just think that means you'll have to do all those lovely memories all over again!!

Re: Hmm. What do you do when...

ugh. Losing pictures makes me sick to my stomach. I go to storage auctions alot and almost everytime I find a box with all kinds of family pictures, childrens baby pictures, and all kinds of sentimental stuff. I usually try to contact them, but have only found one owner. It's really tough to throw away stuff like that.

Re: Hmm. What do you do when...

It really sucks when that happens. and its a bit hard to do all them memories again! they werent really family things, they were more shots of buildings and such for my website. Which I need! lol

Ahh Well.. "Always look on the bright side of liife *whistles* "

Re: Hmm. What do you do when...

sorry to hear you're having problems, I had this problem once, didin't learn my lesson for at least another 10 times after the first one. I think usually there is an option somewhere on the phone to eject the card and this should eject it without the chance of it getting wiped clean blank.

I overcame the problem myself by getting a cable to connect between the pc and the camera therefore not having to take the card out and elliminating the chance of messing the card up by removal.

Re: Hmm. What do you do when...

It was from my digital camera. I bought some software- paid £61 for it. It recovered them.. But I cant preview them or anything. Im really angry. Ive emailed the company. So see what happens. Oh and Also, My web design assignments have gone for a walk. I cant find the folder. Done a system search, but nada. Urghhh.

Re: Hmm. What do you do when...

That is an ace song.
Urgh. I have to re-do all my assignments. I really cant believe this.

Re: Hmm. What do you do when...

I presume that if you put the memory card back into the phone, the pictures are still not there? Just wondering whether it could be a problem with your reader rather than the memory card itself.

Re: Hmm. What do you do when...

Yeah, when the card is in the camera and i press the "playback" button, it says its empty. Sucksssssssss!

Re: Hmm. What do you do when...

Is it still under warranty, if so i'd take it to the shop and show them what happens. If not then.......erm.........i'd say it's shopping time

Re: Hmm. What do you do when...

I think I know what I did now. A few days ago I was taking pics of my nephew and I didnt like one, so maybe when I deleted it on the camera, Im guessing I must have clicked on "Delete all". *sigh* You cant get dumber than me!
