Software you need: File Juicer



File Juicer will extract images from PDF, PowerPoint, Excel or Word just as it will extract them from flash cards. It considers all files as the peel of an orange which can be removed and the contents extracted.



Recover Images from Flash Cards





Flash cards do get corrupted, but usually it is not so serious and most of the images can be recovered.







To recover images safely from flash cards, File Juicer reads every byte from entire flash card and stores it in a "Disk Image" file.



This way, the card is only read once and you can unplug it. File Juicer does not attempt to fix anything on the flash card at all.



To start the recovery, choose "Flash Card..." from the File Menu.



After File Juicer has created the disk image, it continues to The Search. Byte for byte the entire disk image is searched for the lost files.



File Juicer will search the disk images for the file types you check in the preferences, most likely you will look for JPG files. If your flash card is from a cell phone, you may look for mp3, or 3gp files too. Some cameras can create RAW files which File Juicer does not recognize directly. Instead File Juicer will find and recover the JPEG previews usually found inside the RAW files.
