Memory Card Problem...Please Help

[viceaction]

I have read before about memory card problems but have always ignored them (having no problems myself). Well now it is my turn.

I was playing around with locr trying to do my first geo-tagging experiment and soon after that I go to Tom Tom to quickly pick up a GPS signal...well since I have the US maps installed on my 2gb Sandisk microSD card, Tom Tom is also installed on the card. It is one of the few apps I have installed from the card.

When I go to open TT7, it is icon-less showing a broken link. So I go in to File Explorer and my card is not visible. I try Total Commander, nothing. I then put the card in to my Touch and see if it is a Touch Pro issue. No luck, it does not show up on the Touch either. So not giving up I pop it in to an old Canon power shot and it says "Memory Card Error" which is what it says when there is no card in the camera.

I have probably 50 apps, 500 songs, 100 photos/videos on the card as well as the US maps. This is a complete dagger if the card is f'd. Any insights on what to do ? Seems like the card is busted but you Pros might be able to help.

Thanks in advance,

Try finding an extension viewer to put it on your computer. If that doesn't work then its probably bad

Go to http://www.cnetx.com/format/ You can download a program called flash format which allows you to diagnosis problems with your card right on your phone, even reformat if necessary. It costs like $12.00 but there's a 10 day free trial. If this helps hit Thanks.

Great this worked like a charm, thanks and I hit "Thanks" for you.

I'm glad that worked for you. Thanks funbobnopants, I'm gonna get this too. One suggestion I have is to copy all the files on your disk to your computer. I do this & when I sold my Titan I had a full backup for the purchaser as well. Saved my bacon through several cards as well.

(My 2 cents)
