how do I recover my micro sd card? I have pictures of my mother that I took with another phone and just transferred to my new phone, now it's saying its damaged but the other day it worked fine. Please help me, I don't care about the music that's on there I just want the pictures of my mother who passed away 2 years ago.

Sorry to hear about your loss.
Firstly try to put the card in as many devices as you can which are connected to a computer to see if it will be recognised as a drive one more time. Sometimes you can be lucky. If it is recognised, immediately copy all data to the computer. If you cant get it to recognise the card there are companies that open the card up and get at the data but it is VERY expensive at the moment. I am labelling any cards with important stuff on that stop working and storing them in the hope that in the future the cost of recovery comes down to a price I can afford to pay.
