I've recently started having files disappear from my 4GB Micro SD card, including whole directories. Other than replacing the card, any suggestions???
Thanks. -Bob- |

Thanks. -Bob- Clean the contacts on the card and the phone with some alcohol, and try panasonic's SD card reformatter. Windoze does not format cards to SD spec. http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/sd/d..._formatter.html "Generally, SD/SDHC Memory Card file systems formatted with generic operating system formatting software do not comply with the SD Memory Card specification. " ( And yes, it works on ALL SD cards) M.S |

So far, I haven't found any other data to be missing. Weird! -Bob- |

The only folder that disappeared (now 3 times!) has been the Touch Commander folder. I reinstalled the software to the main memory and discovered that even though my user name and password showed in the registration dialog, I had to redo the registration procedure before the new install would allow changes. Could it be possible that the designers of Touch Commander programmed in some sort of auto-destruct if the registration didn't take???? A nasty little time-consumer for the user; a 'Not registered" message would be much better.  Anyone else using TC and seeing this issue? -Bob- |
