please do not link directly to exe file downloads and instead link to the product page (i've fixed your link here). in this way the user can read up about the product and decide for themselves if they want to download it or not.

also, please note that suggested programs should normally be freeware/shareware only except in certain specific cases where such options do not exist or paid options are notably superior. if you do suggest commercialware you absolutely need to mention the fact that it is paidware so that readers know beforehand what they are getting into.

This is often how these devices display their 'death'. If nothing else, you might schmooze some OfficeMax or BestBuy clerk to let you insert that card into a Mac and see if there's any change in 'recognition' behavior. If not, then I'd say "dead" and get another one.

There is free software that can often let me recover files that are accidentally deleted or even reformatted devices. A Quick-Format only re-writes the Formatting Header location, and renames the data into a "now it's deletable/overwrite-able" state. These 'recovery' packages can sometimes be used to read a newly-formatted device therefore and recover prior data.

Not always, but sometimes. When a Format is my last resort, I choose "Quick Format" and then use something like Piriform's freebie RECUVA, which I've installed on my computer.
