I have a Kingston 512mb SD card. I have been using this card for some months
to store files and programmes without issue until this week.

Yesterday I tried to access an MP3 file on my pocket PC but it has
disappeared none of my mp3 or wmv files appear. I checked using the file
explorer and non of my files, folders or programmes appear. Instead there is
a 0kb file which is called "ignore my docs". I deleted this hoping that it
would clear the problem but no luck.

I have tried viewing the files on my desktop using a card reader - again
none of the files appear but my desktop tells me the card has 488mb memory
in use so they must be there right ?

I have run the error check app on the card from my desktop and no problems
are reported. I have also run a virus check and there are no issues.

Can anyone help ?


Thanks

Would it be possible that all the files in the root of
your card are marked as 'Invisible' and that you need
to turn on Show All Files? (Tap-Hold on a white space
on the PPC)
You might also want to check this with a card reader
on your desktop computer.
