User Query: I accidentally formatted my 4GB TF card yesterday upon receiving a ‘Format card error’. Is it possible to un format the card and get back all my lost data? These files include my family photos, some mp3 music and videos. The photos are very precious to me, and the music and videos are also important since I spent several dollars buying the music and videos online. Is there a way to recover data from TF cards? Please help!
