After that, try quick-format the disk and re-try the program to see if more data can be retrieved. Note: format won't erase the data for good. Good luck & Merry Christmas!
You mean when you access the camcorder(HD or memory card), it tells you to format it. And sometimes it won't let you format? This kind of problem happens here and there with extenal storage device such as memory stick or hard drive. Primary reason is the storage media is corrupted. The solution is DO NOT format it right away.
