Does anyone know how to get my pics back?! All my christmas pics of my kids and everything I feel sick to my stomach I put the SD in my computer and NO files And WHAT is format anyways?
Format means clean the drive and prepare it for new pics. You basically flushed your SD Card of all data
Answer by I-Like-Chicha&Ceviche on 02 Jan 2010 05:21:29Format wipes all data from the medium. You could buy a data recovery program to see if anything survived. If you don't know what something means, as you now know, don't select it. Of course you could have looked it up online.

Some programs will let you download and try to see if it works; then you have to buy it to save the photos. Do not overwrite the formatted card with new photos until you've tried to recover the lost ones.

You got what you intended to do, right? Mess around with your camera?
Try to search for unformat utilities in the internet. Some will require a fee and some are free. It may work, it may not, or it may make your condition worse like destroy the SD card. Proceed at your own risk.
Everyone else is right. Now you know the disadvantage of playing with the buttons without reading the manual.
