dear sir,
sorry you can't recover it. because, it contains flash memory that's why it's not possible.
thanks

I solved the problem by connecting my Sony IC Recorder to the USB port on my McBook Pro computer and then emptying the trash can on the Mac computer. Visually (flashing red indicator light) and audibly (the recorder's sound that indicates something being erased), it was clear that mp3 files were finally, really being erased on the Sony recorder even though the recorder's own screen display had previously shown only empty folders and no files. Dragging files to the trash can doesn't really erase them unless you also empty the trash. All dragging to the trash can does is somehow mark the files in a way that, unfortunately, makes them invisible to Sony's file detection system.

Thanks for using FixYa.

The erase button is on the right hand side of the recorder. When you are on the message that you want to delete, then hold the erase button down. The message will start to play and an erase message will flash. Push the erase button down again and it will delete the message. Continue to do this for each message until you have the desireable amount of free space.

While playing a recording, press the erase button twice. That will bering the number of recording down by one. Do the same until you get zeros on the display.

The hold button on the right hand side . Just slide it forward and it will go off. forward means if you are holding it, in your hand facing your slide it up ..
