Hello everyone,

I deleted some pics from my sd card by accident... Though, I was able to recover them with pandora recovery. Yet, when I open them in view NX2 it says unspported file format (find sample @: Dropbox - _SC_5062.NEF - Simplify your life). Does that mean they are corrupted? If yes what should I do? Please any help would be much appreciated... these are really imposrtant pics...

 

Thanks alot for all ur help in advance!

I tried PS6, Perfect Suite8.5 and an online converter and none of them could do the job. All the programs I used said there was an error with the file. One specifically said something about "malformed TIFF Meta-data". Sorry about that. :(

 

I'm not sure about this but could you try and re-recover them using a different program? Doesn't sound likely but it's worth a mention.

I know Lexar has a software recovery tool that SHOULD allow you to recover images from a card - it will work with any card, not just a Lexar card.  I believe they give you a code when you buy a Lexar card that allows you to download and license their software for free.  Not sure how much it costs otherwise. 

 

Several years ago, I had copied an entire wedding's worth of photos from my cards onto my hard drive.  Put the cards back in camera and formatted them as I always did.  Before I was able to backup to external drive, the laptop's hard drive died.  That software from Lexar saved the wedding photos...

I have only needed to rescue information from a card once (knock on wood). The Rescue Pro version that is included with the better Sandisk cards for one year got everything that time...

If you have accidentally delete important photos then you must recover it with a reliable software which has the ability to recover and repair files as well. The reason for recovered files getting corrupt would be that you would have saved the photos on the same drive from which you have recovered.

To tackle this problem you may need a repair software, so I would suggest try any recovery software for repair and recovery of files. Some software like stellar or onesafe can recover any file and repair them in no time. Try their free version to check first.
