Music files deleted from Memory Card..(5800XM)

Hi..
I have a Nokia 5800 XpressMusic. Music files used to get deleted earlier automatically from the music player, but this problem stopped for a while. The other day, I transferred about 20 songs to my phone via Mass Storage mode through my PC. After a couple of days, all those 20 songs are missing from my music player. They've disappeared from the Memory Card as well, leaving behind only the folder in which they were.
Please help. This is REALLY annoying. 

  Yes, may be you are right. Something was wrong with my memory card and i figured out this morning. its an 8gb card out of which my personal data was about 4 gb. yet i could see that almost 7gb was used and only about  0.5gb was free. what i did was that i pulled all my data out of the  mem card and found that still 3gb was used up. hmmm...this was very weird. Not too sure but i guess it may be occupied by .arc files which are created when i do backup on the memory card. This was leaving very little space on my mem card , so whenever new data was added to the card, it was flushing out some existing data randomly (which is actually very sick!). 
So, i removed all my personal data from card and then formatted it. Now my card is clean and has lot of free space. Hopefully the problem won't repeat anymore.
Its actually quite annoying that data is deleted randomly without prompting that disk has run out space. quite weird actually.
List of Nokia phones I've used: 3310, 3315, 3200, 6600,3250, N73 ME, N95 8GB, 5800 XpressMusic and Nokia X6 16 GB (currently using this).

  • Imported Files Deleted From Memory Card

    I imported my files from my camera's memory card and selected the option to import into the aperature library and delete the originals after import.  The files successfully imported and I began to work on them in a project.  I flagged a couple of the pictures that I wanted to put in an album and print, upload, etc.  Then, all of a sudden, they were GONE.  They are nowhere to be found in Aperature.  I even viewed all photos in a "list" view and sorted by date taken and none of the pictures I took today and "successfully" imported were there.  I do not see them in the trash either and a Time Machine backup has not completed since I imported the photos.  Could someone please tell me how I can recover these priceless pictures of our toddler son and my wife on their first Mother's Day???

    Jason,
    hopefully you did not actually delete your photos but just hid them. Did you quit and relaunch Aperture before your images vanished, or did did it happen, while Aperture was open?
    There are basically two ways that occasionally hide images:
    Hiding in a different Librariy: Import into one library, then opening a different library and the images appear to be gone
    Filtering and rejecting: Accidentally setting filters or using the "reject" key will exclude images from the view.
    If you noticed the missing images after quitting and relaunching, you may have imported into a different library then you are viewing now. This may happen, if your Aperture library is on a different volume and the volume went offline, before you started importing. Then Aperture may simply create a new library on your drive and import into that. Or you have two Aperture installations - on  in the Applications folder, one somewhere else. Depending on how you launch Aperture you may open different Libraries.
    To check for other Aperture Libraries, see if Aperture offers different Librarues to open, when you hold down the options-key while launching Aperture or if Aperture is already running, go to the File menu and select "File -> Switch to Library".
    If  the images vanished while you were working with Aperture: (You did not tell us which Aperture version you are using - I assume you are using Aperture 3 ....)
    Check the searchfields in the Browser and in the Inspector pane and clear them.
    The browser filter should be set to "Showing All" - this will even reveal rejected images,
    The filter in the Inspector pane shuold show: "All items"
    Note that each library item may have its own filter applied; you will have to select them in turn to clear all filters.
    In very rare cases you may even have created an invisible filter; then Frank Caggiano's user tip will help.
    Images not appearing in browser, search filter is cleared
    Rejecting images: If you accidentally hit the "9" key, your currently selected images may be rated rejected and the filter in the Browser will exclude them from view, if it is not set to "Showing all". Rejected images are marked by a "x". To unreject them assing a different rating.
    Pkease post back, if this does not solve the problem. Don't use the card in your camera, until you got your pictures back. If all fails, you may need to use recovery software on the card.

  • C5-03; how to view music files in the memory card ...

    Is it possible to view the files in the memory card (using the File Manager) folder-wise? I have some music files in the memory card; in a folder named 'Music'.  When I go to Menu - Applications- Office- File mgr - E:Memory car-Music , I see the files in different collections corresponding to the artist/ genre names.  I don't see the folders I had created.  The artist/ genre (meta) data is not accurate and so the listing based on that is not useful. 
    This is related to the problem with Palylists I had posted earlier.

    go to music player select options and refresh player this will pick up all the music
    you will get a message on screen for example 40 songs added the go to music player select all songs
    If  i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.

  • Delete from memory card after import

    Hi,
    I'm a fresh Lightroom newbie, and I am missing how to delete pictures from a memory card as I am importing them into Lightroom. This seems a glaringly obvious feature, so it must be hiding somewhere.
    The only options I can see in the "Import Photos" dialog are
    - Copy photos to a new location and import
    - Copy photos as Digital Negative (DNG) and import
    There doesn't seem to be an option to delete files after import, just various ways to eject the card.
    I've found one way if I choose "Import Photos from Disk" while in Lightroom, there I have a Move option, but why not from device? Every other photo importer has this.
    Thanks,
    Zak

    Thanks for your responses. I'll go ahead and use "Import photos from disk" and change to my card reader. I personally had no problems in my years reading & immediately deleting files from memory cards. I had a few instances where I inadvertently deleted a fresh imported picture on the computer, I used undelete utilities on the card in these cases.
    That said, I still think it would be a good feature. If the users want to do it (2 years of questions), just let them.

  • Files deleted on memory card

    Hi,
    I just got a Nokia N73 and a 2GB memory card. One day i took the sim card out and put it in another phone and then back into my N73. First the phone asked for time and date information and then i saw that all my files on the memory card was gone? I repeated the operation again later, but it did not happen again. Is this a problem with this phone? I had y-browser installed...is this application known to cause problems like this?

    Yes, the memory card seemed to be the problem. It's a TwinMOS card which is a brand that I have used many times before, so it was just bad luck. I traded in my card for a new one that seems to be working better. Things that seemed to slow down when i used the previous card suddenly works great Never owned a Symbian phone before so didn't know how good i was supposed to work

  • Hoy can I restore photos deleted from memory card conected to my new iPad with the cámara kit?

    I conected the memory card with my photos to my iPad with the cámara kit,  there where not enought Space to dounload and I deleted accidentaly the photos. how can I restore the photos?

    If you deleted them from the card then you could do a search on the internet and you should find a number of third-party programs that might be able to recover them. If you had copied them to the iPad and they are still on there then you can copy them from the iPad to your computer : photos to PC.

  • Music files deleted from hard drive and iTunes library

    Often, after iTunes software updates, I find that some of my music files that have been uploaded from cds are completely erased from my music library and from my external hard drive, where I keep all my music. I always make sure I turn on the external drive before opening iTunes, and I quit iTunes before turning off the external drive.
    So why is my music disappearing?! Where does it go? This has been a problem for a long time and I can't find any solutions online. Please help! Thank you!

    When you have the unit in the dock, anytime you sync, you have to make sure that it will sync again to the folder. If it isn't set to sync the same folder where you had the music sync before, it'll delete the file.
    That's just the way it's set up. So you have be conscious of it.

  • Deleting from memory card Q are not errased.  Have I missed a sertting some

    I get the same dialogue boxes at the end of import in 2.0, but when I click on erase images on card, they are not erased. Have I missed a setting somewhere?
    Mark

    It is much preferable to always reformat cards in-camera. There are multiple reasons for this, the most obvious being that each camera's individual firmware is best for getting a card set up for the next round of pix on that camera.
    Another reason is that such a workflow means ejecting the card prior to reformatting, which means you can also check the images on the computer prior to erasing the images on the card, with 100% certainty that the images reviewed on the computer are not mistakenly being reviewed directly from the card.
    Personally I also think it best to backup the images newly copied to the computer after ejecting but prior to erasing/reformatting the CF card. That way 2 copies of original pix exist prior to any editing or erasure of CF media.

  • 5800 files deleted from mem card in mass storage -...

    I have connected my phone via USB mass storage and deleted some MP3s
    however
    there is no extra free space showing on the phone (in File Manager)
    I had this problem before and it somehow fixed it self after a reboot/sync, but this time it isn't working.
    I reallly can't face the hassle of soft/hard reset/card format - life is too short!
    Has anyone else fixed this problem

    Hi,
    I had the same concern in my N96. All my messages were deleted. This happened thrice with me. I had activated the silent profile & was listening to music in the handset, I received a message & the handset restarted. then all the messages in the handset were deleted. I had around 1300 messages. I tried a lot to retrieve those messages, but couldn't find any solution. I guess you cannot retrieve the deleted messages.

  • How do I redownload itunes music files deleted from my harddrive?

    My hard drive was damaged and  now I've lost at least half of my purchased music.  DO NOT LINK ME TO THE SUPPORT PAGE HERE ON APPLE!!!!! That method does not work  for songs that are pre-iCloud and don't try to tell me otherwise! these songs are not on any of my devices, I have a new iphone and that it is (my old one was damaged beyond repair, lost a lot of files on that too). I have records of purchasing all of these items  on the itunes store yet I cannot find the option to re-download them. When I look them up in purchased,  it gives me the option  to play them then  just asks me to locate the file, which  I  cannot as  it is not on my  new hard drive. I am very, very angry with apple for not giving me this option as I've  given them hundreds of dollars,  those songs belong to me now and I have every intention  of  getting them back. I would appreciate some  help doing so  if you would be so kind. Thank you. 

    Does it show in the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage ? If the track is no longer in the Music part of your library then it should show there with a cloud icon against it for redownloading. Or you can go into Edit > Preferences in iTunes, and on the Store tab there should be a 'shows iTunes in the cloud purchases' tick box, ticking that should get music to show in the Music part of your library with a cloud icon against it which you can click on to redownload it (again the 'locate file' entries will need to be deleted for them to show).
    Store preferences tab (there is a bug on this forum affecting images so it might not show) :
    If the tracks still don't show with the cloud icon then try closing/re-opening iTunes.
    If you've taken a backup of your iTunes library then only you will need know what you did with it. Do you have any external drives that you might have copied your library onto ? A backup of an iOS device does not include the contents of its Music app.

  • Asha 311 - add music from memory card

    Hello,
    I've encountered an issue with my Asha 311. I copied my mp3 files into phones memory card and I wanted to access and play them from phone's Music shortcut in the front page, however, it only finds music that is in the phone memory and ignores the memory card. How do I add music from memory card to that list?
    Thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Then do one thing.. make sure all the music files in your device are in the folder named music files in the memory card.. if not, simply move the files to that folder.. agian update the library and check..
    still problem remains, then  go for a soft reset ( it will not affect your data). for this type *#7780# in your keypad and provide security code (default 12345). check again..

    Can I delete a music file directly from iPhone?

    Not possible.
    Either unselect it during what it syncs, or manually manage > delete song.

  • Photos did not download and I deleted them from memory card. how to recover?

    Photos did not download to computer.  I deleted them from memory card.  Is there a way to retrieve them from memory card.

    If all you did was delete them it should be relatively easy to recover them BUT don't use the card until you've done it. Even after a format it's fairly easy but not after re use because you write over them. For more help read the replies here.
    http://forums.usa.canon.com/t5/PowerShot/How-do-I-recover-photos-deleted-from-the-memory-card/m-p/84...
    You will need a card reader because I don't think it can be done in camera using the usb cable.

  • Recover lost deleted corrupted music files tracks from iTunes match icloud

    Just spent an hour on Apple's tech suypport line, all to figure out how to recover lost/deleted/corrupted music files/tracks from iCloud / iTunes Match.  Here's how to do it:
    ASSUMPTIONS:  You're in iTunes on your computer, logged into your iCloud account.
    Within iTunes, in the left-hand pane, select your Music library.  Alll your tracks should appear in the right-hand pane.   Those that are missing from your disk should be marked with an asterisk icon to the left of the track.    Do the following...
    ...select all the missing/lost/deleted tracks (using the option button), and hit the delete button.
    NOTE:  when the delete dialog box comes up, make sure you do ***NOT*** click the "Delete from iCloud" selection!!!
    ...once deleted, select all the same tracks again, then hit the right mouse button, then select "Download".
    All the tracks should start downloading, one by one, from iCloud.
    NOTE:  If I were you, I'd perform this operation on discrete chunks (no more than 500 at a time), just to be safe.
    Good luck!

    You can also recover the missing tracks from the backup you are keeping on an external HDD. You are backing up, aren't you?
