How Do I Upload Videos To My Computer From My SD Card?

SD card deleted, and videos off camera deleted?

  • Hi, I have a JVC Everio. A couple of weeks ago, my sister took the SD card out of it to upload photos of herself. Even with the memory card gone, the camera still had all the videos on it. Then, when she returned the card to me, I put the card into my camera and poof! All the videos were gone...Even the ones I could see when the memory card wasn't in there. And the videos aren't anywhere on my computer, I've checked everywhere several times. Does anyone know anyway to get the videos back, or are all the videos lost forever?

  • Answer:

    Try this free program, http://www.recuva.com and do a deep scan, I have had good luck with pictures from a formatted sd card, not sure how or if it works for video.

This is the poster, just signing in with a different user name (I didn't realize I was on my sister's account when I asked). I DID take the SD card out, but the videos still weren't there :( I'll try that Recuva program next...thank you!

Take the card out and the videos will be back. Apparently she erased the SD card, and the camera is reading from SD memory by default.

Let me steer you

You can very often recover deleted pictures and video files from a camera memory card or USB Memory stick. However, to increase the chances of being able to recover pictures after they have been deleted you must not save any new photos, files or data to it. When you delete pictures (or any files) from a memory card or USB memory device the data itself isn’t deleted, just the file system pointers that says where the data for those files is located. The area where the deleted picture data was stored is also now marked as free space so it is available to the system for any new files to be written there instead. If and when that happens, then it is too late to recover your deleted pictures so it is very, very important that new pictures or files aren’t saved to the memory card in the meantime. One of the easiest ways to see if your deleted pictures can be recovered is to try some photo recovery software. One tip is to try a demo version of a commercial product that will scan the memory card for deleted pictures and show you exactly what pictures can be recovered. At least that will show you if you can recover the deleted pictures or if it’s too late already.
