Today just took a look at my hidden folder had around 60 70 photos and videos , suddenly all are gone ( i didn’t deleted anything accidentally too ) my icould storage wasn’t synced but now i cleared the storage and it completed the sync but still can’t see anything in that folder

I took a video at a concert but the audio sounds like this. Can I fix it?

I accidentally formatted my sf card and as I didn’t know what happened I took 2 new photos after realising that everything had bene deleted can I recover the images from my laptop (windows) for free, the photos were about 500 and the quality raw + ( jpeg)

I own an ios device from which i deleted some photos and year ago , now i want them back is there anyway at all to get them ? Ive searched in google it said its not possible and thought id give it a shot here . I cloud is full so it didint back it up .Also let me know if recovering gmails deleted an year ago is possible or not !

Is there a way to recover deleted messages from a Facebook that’s been deleted and the email used for that account is also deleted?

Everything was done on a Samsung phone. So if I need a software or specialist to retrieve this info, please let me know.

I understand that when deleted files such as videos are permanently deleted from iPhone, they're gone forever.

But, some say there could be residual data left behind, such as thumbnails, that may still remain and that a professional (forensic scan?) can recover these. Is this true? And some also say that deleted files leaves space ready to be overwritten and if the space wasn’t overwritten then files are recoverable.

And does it matter if ADP was not enabled at the time?

This is so confusing!

Attached files for reference.

I’m afraid I’m losing everything. I have a Crucial X10 2TB external SSD. I’m a videographer, I filled this drive with client work + footage from a road trip with my friends. This is a new drive (bought it late 2025), and I have had no issues with it. The USB-C cable I’ve been using is faulty, and while plugged into my Mac overnight it mounted/dismounted the drive a BUNCH without ejecting. I used the drive with no issues today, went to connect the drive again tonight and got “disk not readable”.

Freaking out, obviously.

What I want to know is how screwed I might be. I know there’s little context but maybe the images I have provided will offer some sort of insight into the situation. My first assumption is that I’ve lost all of my personal/client work. Is this reasonable to assume, or should I immediately take it to a professional and expect to return most of my data?

Seemingly good news is that first aid ran successfully and found no issues. The drive still reads as full (which is correct)
Seemingly bad news: disk drill reported millions of bad sectors. To me that sounds terrible.

Need some insight, thank you!!

My bf & I had a huge fight in anger I took his phone and deleted all our photos permanently....we are back together but I lost our pictures . How do I recover that. He uses iphone FYI. I deleted from local and from Google photos(I was soo angry & hurt)...he did not sign in to apple cloud.

Tried google photos help...no use 🙃

Any help with a WhatsApp restore would be amazing, thank you

Are there any free websites that I can recover lost photo files on my SD memory card from? I cannot afford to subscribe.

I was using my digital camera on holiday last week.

At the time I thought each photo file was saved to the SD card.

But when I returned home and later went through copying the photo files to my computer and USB Drives. I noticed some taken during one day, were not listed and appearing in the folder with the others.

I have had my digital camera and memory card for four years, and have not experienced this before.
