No surprise!! Ditch it. Invest in a solid SanDisk or Lexar card for reliability. Also, clean your lens, keep firmware updated, and store your camera properly. Basic care keeps your gear running smoothly, don’t skimp on it!
Oh, you’re torn between SanDisk and Lexar? How cute. Let’s be real here, SanDisk is the obvious choice. They’re the industry leader for a reason. Fast, reliable, and their name is basically synonymous with quality storage.
The classic corrupted JPEG. Just what everyone hopes for when they try to look at a picture. It’s like the file’s little way of saying, “I’m done, figure it out.” But seriously, it’s super annoying. Hopefully one of these fixes does the trick
I’ve noticed that some of my photos are coming out blurry, and some won’t open at all on my phone. I’ve tried restarting it, but that didn’t help. Anyone else experience this, or know how to fix it?
Use CHKDSK on a PC (Windows). Connect the card via a reader.
Open Command Prompt and run: chkdsk X: /f
(Replace “X” with your card’s drive letter)
This can happen for a few reasons—like a faulty SD card, interrupted saving process, or file format issues.
I am too facing same issue.
I’m having trouble opening a JPEG image file on my Android device. Every time I try to view it using the default gallery app or any other image viewer, I get an error saying the file is corrupted or can’t be opened. I’m not sure what caused the corruption.
Is there a way to fix or recover a corrupted JPEG file directly on Android, or do I need to use a computer? Any recommended apps or steps I should try?
Good point, I think my backup is encrypted. I should remember the password though. I’ll try a trial extractor first and see if those numbers pop up before spending on anything. Thanks guys.
Agree with @Mira. I learned the hard way that free tools are outdated for newer iOS versions. If you’ve got the backup on your PC already, a proper extractor will save you from having to mess with a full restore.
Also..make sure your iTunes backup isn’t encrypted, or you’ll need the password to even open it.
I had this issue last month. I used a trial of a paid iPhone data recovery tool on my Windows laptop..not the free “fake” ones, but something up to date. It let me open my iTunes backup, preview contacts, and export them to CSV without restoring. The trial showed me all the contacts, but I had to get the full version to actually save them.
If you just need a few numbers, maybe grab the trial first to see if they’re even in there.
Yeah exactly, I don’t wanna overwrite everything just to get like 3 numbers back. Do you know any extractor that actually works with iOS 18?
itunes is annoying that way..it’s basically “all or nothing” when it comes to restores. If you restore, you get the whole phone overwritten.
For contacts specifically, you’ll need some kind of backup extractor that supports the new iOS format. Most of the old free ones stopped updating after iOS 15 or 16.
So my nephews were playing with my phone and somehow managed to delete a couple of important contacts (don’t even ask me how they found the delete button).
I thought, “No big deal, I’ve got iCloud,” but nope..those contacts are nowhere to be found there. The good thing is I do have a recent iTunes backup saved on my Windows laptop. Problem is, iTunes will only restore the whole backup, and I just want those specific contacts back without messing up my current stuff.
Tried a couple of “free” tools I found on Google, but apparently they’re stuck in the past and don’t support iOS 18 backups.
Anyone here knows an easy way to just pull contacts out of an iTunes backup on Windows?”
5,000 mAh in an iPhone? Careful, Apple!!
People might start expecting their phone to last more than a single coffee break.
I’m more interested in whether Apple improves battery life and durability than just adding another camera lens.
