Lost all my pics

[Emmsmom]

I would ask for the hard drive back. You could always take it to a local computer shop. My computer crashed once but my husband was able to take the hard drive and hook it up to his computer using what he called and external hard drive. After that we decided to back up everything. We had been putting it off for so long. I am so sorry you lost your pictures. I would be upset too.(hugs)

I feel your pain! Our computer crashed last year. I lost pictures, recipes, and all of my son's Eagle Project work. AAAARRRRGGGHHH! I had a few pics on photobucket, but lost many that are irreplaceable. I learned my lesson about backing things up, that's for sure!

I've had computers crash on me several times and my husband has a friend that's always been able to save what ever we've wanted off of it. I would be really upset because I bet you could have saved your pictures if you'd have found the right computer guy. It doesn't sound like they even try. You might want to see if you can get it back to look for another tech!

I send all of my pictures on to York Photo so I don't have to worry about losing what I have on my computer. I can order my pictures from them and have been very happy with the price and the service.

I'm with Janet, and put everything on Photobucket.

How sad to lose it all!

Diana, that York Photo looks pretty good. I can use the Kodak website, but had already had the photobucket and so far haven't had a reason to change. I did put it in my favorites though, just in case.

There's also www.snapfish.com I haven't used it but I know that it's a site that a lot of people use.

This is one of the reasons I still mostly use my old trusty Canon AE1 35mm. Digital can be wonderful, I have one too, but for lasting photo's I use my Canon.
There are times I use both for the same picture!

In fact, I just dropped off two rolls of film at K-Mart to be developed. They now offer a package of 1 set of color, along with 1 set of black and white. I recently bought a roll of black and white because on one wall of my dining room I have nothing but black and white photo's of my family in many different years gone past.

So I want to add a few black and white pictures of my flowers to adjoining wall. I am so excited to see the pictures I took in both black and white and color! Black and white really changes the effect of the picture.

Tomorrow I am going kayaking with friends, bought a disposable camera to take with me and hopefully get some good pictures. Never want to take a good camera on the river, never know what happens! I am a tree magnet and have been know to get hung up on fallen branches. I know sooner or later I will tip it over, don't want to lose a good camera to the river.

I am so sorry you lost your pictures.
I have so many photo albums. I have always said if you want to know about me, look at my pictures. It tells my life story!
I would be devastated to lose my pictures.

I have some pics on Kodak, and some on Facebook, but those are only a fraction of the pics I had. I've been going over today all the digital albums I lost and keep remembering more. It's so sad...

The computer was only 10 months old. We had our old computer crash last August. Luckily someone recovered most of the pics.

They didn't even ask me what I wanted to do with my hard drive. I'm so very upset. I'm going to get my boyfriend to call them. The hard drive that they just sent away is mine. I think you are right that they didn't try. They acted kinda surprised when I asked for my files.

I always said that if my house caught on fire the only thing I would want to grab on the way out is pictures. They mean everything to me. I'm so devastated. I'm angry too...Gosh I've had a horrible weekend, and today was just crappy...
