Shocked... all my photos are gone

So I tried to backup my photos in my smartphone and moved them to a microSD card just in case, then they are gone! They’ve turned into a format my smartphone doesn’t support so I can’t open them anymore.

Why did this happen!?

I just wanted to protect my photos and I’ve lost them.

I’m so shocked and also I’m so terrible at handling high-tech gagdets like these, I almost had a relapse.

Am I terrible at these things by nature or does this have to do with my schizophenia?

Please someone explain!

Do you have a lap top or desk top you can read the sd card?

No I don’t have a pc. . .

If you can find someone who does they can change the format for you,

My mother has a laptop.
What should I do to change formats?

Open them with Paint, Save as, and change the format.

Hmm… I see…
Thanks…

Well I don’t think I can do it though.

I will fail again.
I’m so bad at pc and stuff.

It is fairly easy to do how many pic’s do you have?

Maybe a little more than a thousand.

I know it’s weird to say I’m bad at pc when you’re in your 30’s, but honest to god I can’t even play any computer games.

wow thats a lot of photo’s, maybe a student in your area can help you or a friend

I guess I should go to the smartphone shop,

I don’t want to fix it myself for I might make this even worse.

I’m sure there is some program you can download on a computer that will convert them all for you. It should be perfectly safe and free as long as you find some good and not fake reviews of the program that say it’s legit. :slight_smile: If you have a friend who is decent with computers they could probably do it all for you. It should be simple and quick to do.

If it’s that easy, I’m glad but unfortunately my mother, my only relationship, is also bad or even worse at pc than I am.

My sis and her husband are both good at pc but I no longer have contact with them.

But I feel alittle better about my pics cos there seems a way to have them back.
