My Micro SD card on my Android phone has decided to tell me its damaged and that I need to format it. My Laptop tell me the same thing. I don't want to lose the many photos, music and notes on it if I format it. I've tried some recovery software (ICare or something) but it asks me for £70 for a key if I want to save anything!!

Does anyone know of any good free recovery software??

Tried it but it simply states I cannot read from the location i am trying to recover from !
Makes sense really. The ICare sofware was a Format recovery tool, but like I said they want cash in order to save the files you fond on it :(

I used this with it's sister app:

<a class="postlink" href="http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk</a>

to recover data & photos from a hard drive. It did a great job.

This is the app you want, check your inbox.
 
My memory stick with about 50gb of audio on it is showing up.as empty and needing formatting

I'm doing a data recovery job with software called Disk Drill but that's a free version with limited amount of recovered data allowed. The premium version is over £100.
I can see there are cheaper programs.

Anyone ?
