I saved a ton of jpegs on a CD-R and I'm unable to access any of the files on the disc. I've been able to get to the files in the past, but some reason, now I can't. I've tried 3 different computers, even a Mac.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.

When you say you've been able to ge the files in the past, did you mean off this specific CD?

If so, the table of contents directory for this CD may be corupt (scratch or something similar). If you are sure the data is on the CD, try downloading a recovory program from the internet to scan the CD for files. If you need help locating one, make another post, as I don't have much time to find one right now.

Hey, Thanks! I downloaded a recovery program (Bad Copy Pro) and it worked great! I did lose a few jpegs, but the majority of them were recovered.

Thanks again.

I just tried Bad Copy Pro version 3.20 build 0608

And it is a very solid program, thanks for finding it and posting the info here.
