Need Help. Can't See Pictures On My Cell Phone Media Card...

vo7848 · 10-16-2009, 10:09 AM

My Blackberry Curve took a dump on me yesterday and wouldn't power up anymore. Took it to the Verizon store. They couldn't fix it, so I upgraded to the Blackberry Tour. I inserted my old media card into the new phone. When I go to look at my pictures, it displays my folders, but 3 of out the 10 folders won't display my pictures. I do not believe those 3 folders were encypted from my old Blackberry. I also do not have them password protected to my knowledge. Can anyone shed some light?

do you have a card reader on your PC? firstly, I would try to insert it there and see if the data was damaged or corrupt.

if you don't, install the software for your phone and load up the media management portion and check if you can access it through that.

phones that won't power up can cause surges and sometimes that destroys data :|

if you can access the files just fine on your PC, I recommend copying them off, formatting the media card, then putting them back on.

I don't have a card reader, but I have the Blackberry software disk that will enable me to interface it with my PC, via the USB cord. I'll try that tonight. Thanks!
