1169659 2011-01-13 23:54:00 I recently came back from a Holiday and when I tried opening the photos I took on my pc, every single photos is distorted and has scenes from another photo I took in it. Its kind of hard to explain but I uploaded a screenshot to show what its like
The photo is meant to be of the white building but it comes up parts of another photo I took of a completely different building on a separate day. My camera is a Sony Cybershot and I"ve never had any problem like this before.

Is there any remedy to this? it would be greatly appreciated also does anyone have any idea what might have caused them all to become screwed up like this?
thanks to anyone that can help, its just really frustrating to come back from a holiday and have all my photos been raped by some shabby software.

1169660 2011-01-14 00:12:00 What software are you using to look at them with?
If Sony specific, have you tried removing it all and reinstalling?
Most likely the PC, not your pics.......

1169661 2011-01-14 00:42:00 I had this kind of thing happen to me the other day, I hooked my camera's SD card up through my MP3 player to my laptop which was running Ubuntu

Sounds complex, but it's worked every other time

That time though, I copied 3 photos and they all had the correct filenames but the contents were all the same as the first photo.

I had to reboot, replug the MP3 player, and recopy the files from SD card before it would work properly.

1169662 2011-01-14 01:03:00 Yeah it sounds like a corrupt FS on the SD Card, or they were corrupt during the transfer process. Try copying them off the card again and hope for the best ... Chilling_Silence (9)
