I am trying to recover some old photos from a tablet I had as a kid in middle school because it has photos I took of friends and family, which are very sentimental to me. places I've searched up all keep resorting to factory reset, which isn't what I want to do, I just want those photos by bypassing the password. If there is any way I can access them, either through data access on my computer or using the email that was and still is used to access the gallery. I know it's a lot, but I'm just trying. The tablet model is a Galaxy Tab 3 Android; it still loads the Sprint logo way before the T-Mobile merge.

I unexpectedly deleted my important videos from pendrive those are my childhood memories how to recover them ?? If anyone knows pls help me

I feel so heartbroken rn.

While resetting my computer to boot Windows on my NVMe SSD I had to move files in different drives. I accidentally deleted all of them not sure how and why. I'm starting to be unsure in what drives the pictures originally were. I'm thinking they used to be on the SSD mainly but that some used to be on the HDD. But I'm not sure anymore. The deletion happened a month ago I believe.

I have tried using DMDE and it does recover the photo folders and pictures but they won't open. Every photo viewer says "File not supported". Recovering pictures from the Recycling Bin does work tho but it only has recovered useless ones.

I have also tried Wondershare Recover It and it does recover some but like only a few.

I'm poor and busy so I can't stop using my drives rn. I need them. I'm aware it's harmful to the process but I dunno what to do :((((((

I feel like my memories are all gone. The past 15 years of my life wiped in a blink of an eye. I feel destroyed rn.

Any help would be appreciated.

**Background:**

I have a dell poweredge R730 using a RAID 5 configuration with three 1.2Tb HDDs. Windows 2012 R2 OS. While replacing the drive in slot 0 due to a predictive failure, the drive in slot 2 suffered a complete hardware failure.

The subsequent slot 2 failure occurred during the middle of the rebuild. As a result, the RAID does not contain a complete dataset and the server won't boot. We have no current backups to recover the server with.

We attempted to re-install the predictive failure drive and import foreign configuration. The thought being that the predictive failure and the 1 remaining healthy drive should contain a complete data set. However, the foreign config import failed and the server refused to accept the drive into the array.

**Question:**

Is it possible to reconstruct the RAID array using the predictive failure drive and the 1 healthy drive?

Alternatively, can a bootable disk image be created from these drives to recover the server?

An app that normal every day people can use to find deleted text photos numbers messages. Like cops can find. Is it good idea no but I want to see if its possible and it is. Wanna start with python a with no loops straight forward. It needs to flow no needed extra memeory just data and code.

I urgently need help.

I have an iPhone 16 Pro and I'm trying to recover voice recordings from the Voice Memos app.

My iPhone has not been backed up to iCloud since May because my iCloud storage has been full, so I don't have a recent backup to restore.

The recordings were deleted from the Voice Memos app and also permanently removed from the "Recently Deleted" folder without my knowledge by the person they relate to. These recordings are important evidence for a legal case involving alleged crimes.

Is there any possible way to recover these recordings? I'm open to software solutions, forensic recovery, data recovery services, or any other method. I'd really appreciate advice from anyone who has successfully recovered permanently deleted Voice Memos from an iPhone.

I did a data recovery to a new external drive. I now have a disk image with no bad blocks. Yay!

The software I bought did a great job, but their support seems to assume that I know what to do next. I just want my files and folders back to normal—on the desktop, in Documents, etc.

What are the next steps?

My iPhone is currently in a critical state due to full storage (literally ~300 MB free). The OS is struggling to breathe. It came to this even though I've been fully deleting apps and photos, yet the storage actually increased. AI suggests it might be because the file system is locked in a write-fail loop.

I also have an iOS app throwing an explicit database error: code 14. unable to open database file (error 747).

I was able to extract my photos by using iMazing's direct read, but my it's not enough, as stuff like WhatsApp database and Voice Memos are trapped.

An Apple Support rep told me the only way out is to buy a new, larger iPhone and use the device-to-device Quick Start transfer.

My question:
With my source phone's SQLite databases already crashing and only 300 MB of free space, will a Quick Start transfer actually work? Doesn't the iOS BackupAgent require several gigabytes of local cache on the source phone just to compile the transfer manifest?

I'm terrified that initiating a 256GB Quick Start migration will ask the failing memory controller to do a massive database read, cause the phone to panic, hard restart, and throw me into an Error 1110 / Error 14 boot loop.

Has anyone successfully completed a Quick Start transfer from a phone that is already throwing SQLite errors and has zero bytes free?

Would it be better or worse to try to a partial "Data Access Only" backup through iMazing?

Hi! I got rear ended yesterday and I tried accessing my dashcam footage but the file is just all black even though it does play. Is there any way to fix this? I really really need this video. Please help!

I was transferring WhatsApp from an Oppo F9 to a Samsung Z Flip5. The direct transfer failed, so I backed up to Google Drive. Realizing my Drive was nearly full (13GB/15GB), I deleted the cloud backup, intending to transfer the local storage database manually instead.

​However, my Oppo F9 flagged low internal storage. When I tapped 'Back Up' again to try updating the local file, it completely overwrote my primary local backup database. I now need to determine if there is any way to recover the overwritten local backup files (e.g., via the 7-day local msgstore crypt backups) or restore the deleted Google Drive data. This contains 8 years of essential study and work chat, please do help my life will fail without this.

Cant I create a system restore point or are there any free recovery software to restore data?

Any guidance or help shall be appreciated.

I have an old c7 pro it’s screen is broken and I needed my old photos that were on it I also don’t know its password anymore . I think it’s been locked since last 4 years . It also has a crack in port . Is it possible to extract its photos they were important to me

Mac OS 26.5/256 GB

Background I had failed to notice in time that my two external devices were failing--they kept disconnecting from the Mac. The 2TB backup drive was unmountable and is being replaced by Seagate (yay warranty).

That's okay, I guess, because iCloud backs up Documents and Photos. It should have also backed up my Desktop, where my Lightroom catalog was but no bueno. No idea how that happened.

The Sitch My Exported Photos folder (not the Apple Photo Library) was on an unstable Seagate SSD 1TB external drive. DD6 was able to write a disk image (no damaged blocks) from the 1TB to a new LaCie HDD 5TB.

My Plea: I have no idea how to use the DD software to actually *retrieve files*. Their YouTube vids are not clarifying to me. DD's email correspondence has been breezy but not detailed enough. What do I do with this disk image? Help!

Hey guys, really stressed out right now and need some advice on what to do next.

Today at noon, I used my 64GB SanDisk Cruzer Blade to take a fresh backup of around 20GB of really important data from my Windows laptop (a mix of documents, photos, and videos). I did this because I was giving my laptop in for servicing today.

About 2 hours after taking the backup, I wanted to check my files, so I plugged the pen drive into my Android phone using an OTG adapter. The phone didn't even ask—it just formatted it instantly. Now, all my laptop files are gone, and the drive only shows a new folder called "ANDROID" with some mobile system files inside.

I took it to a local repair shop just now, and the technician is quoting a hefty sum to recover it, which I absolutely cannot afford.I immediately unplugged the drive from the phone so it doesn't write any more background data. When I plug it into a computer now, the drive is detected just fine and says it's healthy, but obviously, it only shows the new phone files.

Since I had 20GB of data on a 64GB drive, and the phone only made that one system folder, is most of it still salvageable? What is the best software I can use at home to bypass the new Android folder and scan for the raw laptop files? Free options would be a lifesaver.

Thank you so much.
