Storage Card Problem
 

This morning all was fine with my phone and then all of the sudden programs on the storage card started not working and telling me that were not from a trusted source or must have been removed.

With further investigation I noticed that although the 6700 can see the card... and it sees the data usage on the card... it can not see any of the old files on it. If I move a new file onto the card... I can access it just like normal.

I would really like to get the info off the card since it is a lot of pictures/videos of my kids...

Any ideas?

Any help is appreciated.

Do you have a card reader on your PC. Try that, I had something similar happen a few week ago and I was able to get the information that way. Had to re-format the card to get the PPC to recognize it again, bummer. :cry:

Apparently not the right one. All my card readers don't have minisd slots. :shock: :(

Something else... I can still use the card. I can put files on it and access them...I just can't get to the old files.

did u not get an sd adapter with ur mini sd card?

No, When my hubby brought the card home he didn't give me on and at the time I didn't think anything of it because I have NEVER had this happen before...

Yeah, you'll want to get a either a card reader w/mini-SD or a mini-SD adapter (shocking you didn't get one with yours, it's fairly standard).

You'll want to throw it on your computer:

1) back up the files (if possible)
2) Run Windows ChkDsk on the card to find any errors (there probably are)

See if that fixes it. If not, after step (1), you'll want to re-format the card and copy the files back over. That should fix most problems.

It sounds like you have either a bad sector or corrupted file somewhere.

More information on storage card maintenance can be found in this thread. I'm a big fan of once every other week or so using ChkDsk and defragmenting :thumbleft:.

OK.... Weird....

Everything is back.... Just came back on it's own.

ninjamom, you might want to consider getting another card because it can happen again later in the future and stay currupted or messed up. is it a sandisk or another branded card?
