Hi all

Today i took my Samsung 64GB SD card out of my Samsung Note Pro 12.2 (after unmounting the card first of course!) and put it in my Xperia Z3, but upon viewing the contents of the card I see that 99% of the photos, videos and music that was on there has been deleted. The card shows as having 59.9GB free space. The data that I have lost totals roughly 40GB.

Also, the folder names have been altered, for example "music" has become "music.7" and "photo" has become "photo.3".

Can anyone explain why this may have happened, and if there is a way of recovering the data?

Since the data loss i havent used the card, aside from putting it back in the Note Pro 12.2 in the hope that the data would show on this device. It didnt.

I would be gutted if there is no way of retrieving my family photos and videos.

And yes, i know I you'll all say i should have backed up, but funnily enough I took the card out of the Note Pro 12.2 to begin doing just that! how ironic.
