    Help

    Last year my daughter formatted my camera - I was able to download a program and was able to recover the pictures. Once again she did this, and I can't remember what program I used to recover the pictures. Can someone help me please? Thanks!

    This program is also pretty good.

    You can download the demo copy and search the memory card to see if it finds anything.
    Most important, don't store new pictures on the card. I don't think there are any commercially viable way to recover overwritten data.

    Thanks for the information. I haven't been able to get the 130 pictures or so that were there. I know last year I found a program that I downloaded and I recovered everything. I am going to keep on trying! Thanks again!

    Hello. I have tried every program that has been listed so far. I also went on another forum and tried those - photorescue, etc. etc. I know that last year on a forum, I downloaded a program, and recovered ALL the pictures. There was not a charge for it, either. There were like 5 pictures that were corrupted, but other than that they all came through. Nothing is coming at all - no pictures. I know that they are there - I hook my Olympus C-740 up and it is read as F - removable media. I tried the ones you suggested. One didn't recognize the removable media. I am starting to lose hope. Thanks for all your help. I just wish I had saved the forum that I was on.

    No problem sorry it didn't work out for you. You might find the card is defective maybe.
