I am trying to restore lost pictures from an Olympus digital camera that uses an xd card. There was a problem when I went to load the pictures, and the camera screen said to format it. After checking the card for the pics (they weren't there) we formatted. I have used several programs to try to get the pictures, using a card reader. Are they lost forever? One site I went on said if you used an Olympus with an xd card you can't recover the pics. These are very important pics, and I need them back. Thanks for any help!
They are not really gone unless you have reformatted the card, or written over them with new pictures. The blog below has put together some simple instructions and recommends a few free programs. I have used the PC Inspector and SoftPerfect products to recover my pictures as well as those of friends. In some cases I wasn't able to get all of my pictures, but I was happy to get back what I could. The first letter of the filename is lost but it's typically easy to figure out what it was supposed to be
It seems there are a few programs that recover pics from xd cards. See the links. You can google "recover images xd" to see what's out there.
