Fujifilm -XD Picture Card. Completed.
« on: Saturday 12 April 08 14:35 UTC (UK) »

I have a Fujifilm -XD Picture Card 256MB.

It some how manages to reproduce deleted photographs. When I connect to the computer up they come. I used the card for one print at the Photo Shop and they appeared again.

It is just one batch that appears, other batches have been completely deleted.

Any advice on how to remove the unwanted images would be much appreciated.

Make sure you are logged on as an Administrator or have Administrator permissions before you next try to delete the batch.  It could be a permissions thing.

I presume formatting the card would destroy everything (if all else fails).

Hi RBC,

I have a Fujifilm XD card type H 1GB but that should make no difference, I am using it in my Fuji F31fd camera, you don't say what make yours is but again I can't see what difference it would make.

Like Celia, I delete my pictures on the camera. Once deleted they cannot be reproduced unless downloaded again from the computer.

Two things I can think of,
Are you uploading to the same file on your computer, in which case they will be on there from when you uploaded last time.
Or more likely, my camera has a certain amount of memory without using a card, I have never used it but I imagine its like saving things directly to your mobile phone or to your sim card. The way to delete them is different.
So maybe they are stored on the camera memory and not the card.

Good Luck, I hope you get it sorted,

Hello. Thank you for your interest.

My camera is FinePix 345. The unwanted images are hidden on the card not the camera.

When I delete images on the camera I assume I have cleared the card as it says no images. There are none to view. If I take more photos and connect to the computer to download them back the hidden ones come!!

When I was in the shop the other day the same thing happened when the card was put into the machine. Only one batch of deleted photographs plus the ones visable on the card appear other deleted ones stay deleted.

Sorry I don't understand what you mean by deleting on the camera before uploading. The hidden ones have previously been deleted from the card on the camera. I can't retrieve them on the camera. I don't want to so haven't tried. I want to get rid of them.

It sounds ridiculous but deleted images not visable on the camera are still stored on my card and reappear.

Hi Celia

Thanks. Mine is exactly the same problem. I have 91 images that will not go away. I took them in 1906. They are definitely not in the camera because I only used the card in the shop. I had checked the number of photographs visible on the camara, I only had about 20.

It doesn't affect me taking photographs but I would be very interested to know how it happens.

well they wont be on your internal memory then Grin The internal memory only holds about 5/6  for practice i presume,i cant remember ::)If it was my card i would contact the shop you bought  it from but you would need the receipt,i reckon its faulty or the camera setting need re-setting.But what do i know Grin

Hi

Wouldn't it be wonderful. I have been praying for 1906 photographs. I think I will now treasure them!!!!

I will  turn my attention to my problem of Spam, that will keep me occupied for a few days!!

Best wishes RBC.

Ok - let's see if this is any help.

When you delete a file, by and large it isn't really deleted. What happens is that the entry in the file index pointing at the actual file is removed. The file itself still exists, it's just not visible through views using that index. Formatting can be the same, especially the "quick" variety. This can be useful if you accidentally delete your photos because it means you can recover them with specialist software. It's also part of how police carry out forensic examinations of PCs but let's not go there.

So it's no surprise that the photos are still on the memory card. Not clear though how they keep getting new entries in the index.

If you really want to get rid of them perhaps you should try something like Eraser (http://www.heidi.ie/eraser/) which will really destroy the image files by overwriting them.

Hi Les

Thank you for the eraser site. Is it just for removing files from the computer? If so it may come in useful one day.

I am beginning to loose interest now, although I  would be very interested to know how it happened. The offending 91 images were taken in 2006. All photographs taken since that batch have remained deleted.

I think I will take the camera to a shop, let them see that there none to view on the camera and then show them what happens when the card is put into the machine for printing. I bet after all this it will be completely blank!!
