Sorry to hear this happened Mary. I hope you recover your files. Recovering the files prior to running chkdsk with the /f (f for format) might be desirable. Is the drive still within warranty? Most Lexar drives have a limited factory warranty free with the drive. The nature and length of the warranty depends on the drive type and model.

Start, Run, CMD (drop to the command prompt). Then run CheckDisk with the fix command (chkdsk /f). Typically this fixes the errors on the drive.

If you can open it in disk utility and try to repair permissions that may work. Otherwise you may have to send it to Sony.

Did not have to long before it stopped working but I deleted by opening the file online

Mine worked great and then suddenly the camera reads it as damaged. I can no longer use it but I can retrieve the pictures on my computer.

I wish I could answer this one for you. It sound to me like your computer isn't recognizing the it as a disk and for some reason cannot open it. It could also be corrupt or broken. my advice is to To contact the company would you bought it through amazon and see if they can give you some advice.

If it doesn't recognize it I would return it for a different one. It is probably the programing. Or try dumping ur system cache. But save all ur data to a memory stick first.

Yeah, I've been using a couple of ScanSnaps for over a year, with no problems til today. Like you, I have a 500g drive, so I was stumped. When rebooting brought no relief, I literally sat and stared at my file mgr, trying to figure out what, if anything, changed. That's when I realized that I'd been lazy/ sloppy the past few weeks- not bothering to organize the docs into assorted folders. Live & learn, eh?!

I ended up up freezing it in the freezer for a while and then plugging it in to get some of my data off. I'm pretty sure that's a last ditch effort, so maybe don't do it unless you've tried everything else. Hope that helps. Sorry you lost data

I had mine for about 2 years, before I upgraded. However, check to see if someone in your area is downloading large quantities. If you need a new one, I still have the one I bought and never used.

mine never loaded anything other than the games. sounds like you got one messed up before. if you get one from Amazon like that, they would make it good.

Hi, sorry to hear about that. I used mine just to copy a HDD once and it worked fine, I haven't used after that.

My drive wouldn't mount on most of my computers, and would hammer and click for a while before showing up on one. Another computer started working just fine, so I just used it there, but the drive letters started switching all around before it just wouldn't mount anymore. I opened it up, very difficult to do, thinking I'd be able to mount and recover the data but it looks like won't be that easy. I'd try another computer, and take your data off it and consider it unreliable

Hi, that is what I did with my clickfree. I backed everything up in Vista and upgraded to win 8 and then restored my files. However, while I got all folders and files back, 2/3 of the files had a size of 0 bytes which means that they were lost. I still have not been able to restore those files so 2/3 of my files were permanently lost. I did have some files backed up elsewhere but I still have not recovered from that and because of that I no longer use Clickfree. I had many conversations with their technical staff and they did not know what happened in my situation and eventually refused to return my calls. I don't know if this was unique to me or a systemic problem but I don't want to be the one to figure that out. Use with extreme caution and I would back up my files with some other way such as another hard drive and if Clickfree doesn't work you haven't lost everything. Earl

I can't remember any pre-installed programs being on this drive when I bought it but there certainly aren't any on it now, and I have not formatted it. It's possible I deleted a folder or two when I got it but I can't remember.

Check to see if the location you were downloading them to (hard drive? USB stick?) is full. If not, then the OS just hiccuped. Of course you can start where it stopped--just highlight the uncopied files & use the computer's Copy command.

Wait. I found it. Installed ok. But now how do i put my old books into it. Also i hooked up to my computer, used windos exp to see f drive but nothing is visable in ffolder. How do i see whats on my tablet

I've only used usb cable to computer to transfer the files. Once erased on screen that's the only way to access them (or bluetooth). they're saved in pdf format and I think that stupid it from being able to load them easily again.
