Lost all my images on the memory card

I just bought an A2300 and he took on a week hiking trip in Colorado.  At the end of the trip, I took the memory card from the camera and gave it to one of the other backpackers to load my images on his Mac.   He said he saw half a dozen on the map on the .jpg files, but couldn't open them.  When he gave me the card back and I put it in the camera, the card was empty!  I had more than 100 photos on this card when I handed to him.  Now I have nothing.  Any ideas on what happened to all the files and what I can do to recover all the images?

There are several threads on this topicalready & many lists some software free links interesting to try BUT here is the link to a very good program that you can test drive to see if the images are there & recoverable before you pay for it. IF she finds them you know at least they exist & that you have the choice between either pay for licensed software or try the free stuff & see if it works for you.

  • images dialog box is empty when you insert the memory card

    This is after you have inserted a card high capacity in the player, which hung the memory slot.  Now just insert a regular memory card, the dialog box appears, but there is nothing in it.

    Sorry if the info seems confused but maybe the
    answer is here somewhere.

    FWIW... There used a similar problem with a Sony memory
    Stick... the solution is to insert the stick into the drive and
    Restart the computer... somehow this would reset the
    stick.  I don't know if it will work for you.

    You may also check your AutoPlay settings...
    If you insert the card and go to... Start / my computer...
    and right-click on the drive letter for the location of in the map is...
    choose... Properties / AutoPlay tab...

    Choose... Mixed content...
    Tick... Select an action to perform
    On the left, click on the default button / apply / OK.

    Give it a try...

    It is possible that your media player is not compatible
    with the SDHC technology. The best is maybe to buy
    an external drive that is compatible SDHC or download
    Unit photo using a USB cable.

    Regarding the card... have regular SD, you tried to manually
    Download the pictures?

    If you connect the device to your PC via a USB cable, turn
    on the camera... then go to... Start / my computer... it may be
    listed as a drive letter...

    If_yes_right click on the drive letter and select... Explorer or
    Open... This should display the directory of the memory card.
    You can copy and paste or drag and drop the files from there to a
    folder on your hard drive.

    (The same steps work if you have a media player...
    When you go to... Start / computer... the media slots
    Drive should be listed under... "Removable disk" with a drive
    letter.)

    Finally... the AutoPlay Repair Wizard can be worth a try:

  • Connected by USB PS 7510: access to the memory card?

    For the past year, I had my PS 7510 connected wireless to my home LAN. The memory card appears on my computer (Mac OS X) in my list of devices, and I could access the images that I had scanned it. Changes of houshold allowed me to change my setup and I chose to disable the wireless function and use the USB to connect to the printer. All functions work well, though the memory card is not visible or accessible from any of my applications. Access to the computer is the card memory limited to wireless connectivity? Best regards, Brian

    Thanks for your effort.

    I had already applied the way you suggested in your last post, but I've been through once again, deleting and adding the printer. No immediate joy. Then I took a look at the data in the system and I was wondering why I couldn't see even the card on the printer on the USB port. I was wondering, ad did what I should have done from the outset - I removed the card and reinserted and then he appearred in my list of device as you wish. I feel a little stupid for not having done this before.

    Once again, thank you for the effort and support. I'll look to mark the post as solved.

  • Last imported files are not in Lightroom 6 - unless I have Lightroom start by entering the memory card into the reader

    I encountered this problem a few times. Earlier I see the pattern more clearly, so that I can report.

    I imported a large number of files of several memory cards. The files are added to several files in my Windows - using Lightrooms import directory.

    After that, I made some sort / rating / editing etc. - a lot of work.

    Everything seems to be.

    But when I start then Lightroom newer forlders aren't in the LR catalog - records are not presented for me, the last import appears as an greater import at all at the time.

    New files are always hard disk - but seems to be "forgotten" by Lightroom - and all my editing etc seems to be lost!

    Only if I start Lightroom by entering the memory card in the card reader, which automatically start Lightroom, I can see the files and my new editing work in Lightroom.

    I tried several times with or without the memory card. The boss agrees.

    I checked: no data was written on the card during the import or change, so I don't understand about the effect of the memory card.

    I need help to understand and solve this problem.

    Your show screen says 5 Lightroom but your post title says Lightroom 6.  You have both installed?  Perhaps the fault is opened.  You show also 197 missing pictures. Just right-click one of them and don't 'Show in Explorer.

    Hi mbelva,

    Moving images from your hard drive to a memory card or vice versa is no different to move files from one folder to another. Insert your memory card into your card reader and then open Windows Explorer. Make sure that your memory card is recognized by Windows. If it has you should see it in Windows Explorer in the left pane under computer. Then locate the pictures you want to move, and either drag them from the folder on your hard drive to your card or cut and paste. Remove the memory card when you are finished.

  • Attempt to analysis of images from a memory card. my computer has a memory card slot and a while, it will sometimes scan I get "scanner not found." What should do?

    Please specify exactly what you're trying to do. What you say makes no sense. To scan an image, you need a scanner. A scanner is a bit like a camera. You put a piece of paper in the scanner and it 'take a picture' of it and save the image. This process is called "scanning".

    If you cannot scan an image from a memory card.

  • Can not format the memory card

    Canon that PowerShot SX 10 IS reformatted not 16 GB SanDisk Ultra.  Camera says memory card error.  Everything else seems to work on the camera.  Is there a way to fix this?

    Your camera specifications say that it will work with the following cards, memory card SD/SDHC, MultiMediaCard, MMC Plus card, HC MMC Plus card.

    Some memory cards note their speeds by a "class." Canon cameras are recommended to be used with nominal class cards 4 to SD (Standard-definition movies) and class 6 for HD (high definition movies) or more because of the large amount of data written to the card. As long as map meets the following standards for the card, the memory card must be compatible regardless of class or the speed rating.

    SD

    Standard Secure Digital card supports up to 2 GB capacity.

    SDHC

    Secure Digital High Capacity currently supports up to 32 GB capacity.

    MMC

    Multimedia card supports up to 1 GB capacities.

    MMCPlus

    MultiMediaCardPlus supports up to 4 GB currently.

    HC MMCPlus

    High capacity MultiMediaCardPlus supports up to 8 GB now.

  • Appeare photos and videos have disappeared to a destination and the memory card folder after a halt during the transfer.

    I was downloading photos and videos from a memory card to camera in a USB card reader. After that most of the photos and videos (about 245 to 249) have been downloaded, asked me to jump on the last bit. Now, no pictures appear in the folder where I kept them or on the memory card. I get an error message when I try to eject the card reader. How can I recover pictures, because this is my only copy?

    Hi JanetSmart,

    • Have you tried plugging the card on another computer to see if it works fine it?
    • What is the file format of the file 29?

    It could be a virus, I would also say that you download and run the latest Microsoft Security Scanner to scan the card and check if it helps:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

    Note: the data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means there is a risk of data loss.

    It looks like someone may have maliciously tampered with your computer.

    Take a look in your trash and see what you can find.

    If they are not there, try to download and run this program:
