You can try some data recovery software. You can see
recover files from sd card
It tells the steps how to perform data recovery.

If above does not work, you may have to format the memory card (use quick format), and then use sd card recovery software to scan again the memory card and recover your files.

Format the sd card with your computer. There should be a slot to fit the card and go to my computer to format the disk. The camera does not really take good stills, but it really takes good videos.

Well, to transfer the files from the HDD to the SD card, just take the card out, and connect it to your computer's card reader. If you don't have one, then you can buy one for $10 or less. Then using the supplied USB cable, connect your camcorder to the computer. On the computer, click "View Folder" and then simply copy it from the HDD to the SD card using the computer as a conduit.

Why won't my Panasonic Lumix DMC FZ-200 shoot video? "Writing to SD Card" icon flashes while record button is going, but no footage is recorded.
Sounds like a faulty circuit board.
if it's an old camera it will not be cost affective the send it in for fixing.

On my card, there are some files that indicate a "File Error." What does this mean and how do I fix it?
It usually occurs with slower cards. Also with cards that have never been formatted in the camera. Sometimes the write process on the picture/video that you just took hasn't yet completed, while you switch modes on the camera, going to say video mode, or from video to photo mode. That last video or photo that was being written didn't get a chance to finish writing to the card, so part of it may be lost. You can attempt to recover some of them using recovery software (here's some to try). But overall the fix is to use a faster card (look for Class 6 "C6" or higher), and always remember to format your card at least once in your camera using your camera's format feature (keeping in mind that a format will also erase your card, so make sure that you've backed up your photos to your computer first!)..

I took picture w/o SD card. Don't know how to transfer to SD
Search the menus for an entry for "copy". It should give you the option to copy the internal memory to a memory card. You could also take the camera and a usb connecting cord to a store like Walmart that has a Kodak picture maker machine. You can plug the camera into the usb slot and print the picture.

My Kodak C633 is not seeing/recognizing the SD card.
The reason this problem occurred is that you likely never formatted the card. The card will work fine in the beginning for the first few shots, but eventually will corrupt. But don't format that card just yet as it will erase the card.

Take no more pics until you've recovered the photos, take the card out of the camera. Here's some freeware photo recovery software that should be what you're looking for:

http://camerarepair.blogspot.com/2007/12/recovering-those-accidentally-lost.html

You will need to use a flash card reader with this software. If you don't have one, get one, they're very inexpensive these days:

http://www.amazon.com/s/qid=1246813724/ref=sr_st?keywords=sd+card+reader&rs=172282&page=1&bbn=172282&rh=n%3A172282%2Cn%3A%21493964%2Ck%3Asd+card+reader&sort=price

AFTER you've recovered the photos, format the card in your camera to prevent this from happening again (dig out that instruction manual to figure out how). Keep in mind formatting will also totally erase your card, so again only do this after you've recovered the photos.

Most cameras have built in memory. Remove memory card and turn camera on in play mode. If you see the pics then they in cam memory ; take camera to photoshop they will download it for you.

I have an A 520 polaroid digital camera with a memory disc in it. I took pictures on it and want to download the pictures onto my computer. When I insert it in the drive nothing happens. what is wrong?
You mean SD card, right? You can insert the SD card into a card reader and then access the card from the disk driver letter that is assigned to it. Simply open My Computer (if Windows) and check the drives.

But you can also use a USB cable to connect the camera to your computer. Using the Picassa program from Google, it is very easy to transfer the photos to your PC.

Can't access photos on 2 GB SD camera card.
You may try some photo recovery software to rescue the files on your digital camera sd card, here are some for your options.

Photo Recovery (for Windows)
Photo Recovery for Mac

Be careful: Before your pictures are recovered, do not attempt to save more files to the card in case the original files(your pictures) are overwritten.

Memory card error
Did you format the card before using it on your camera? Try using a memory card reader instead of the printer's SD card slot to transfer the video. Also check if the memory card is locked (check the position of the yellow slider at the right side of the card). If this does not work, then you will have to format the card. Unfortunately this will erase all the data in your card.
