This has happened to me a couple of times. I've taken a video, and know I have, and just can't find it. The first time i thought I hadn't hit the red button...today I was certain, and kept checking the timer on it. Its a really important video...Can anyone help?
I have a Galaxy S1
Thanks

Hello and welcome to Android Forums, Julie! :)

If you are using the stock camera app to take these videos, they should be found in /sdcard/DCIM/camera/

Plug the phone into your PC and open as storage. Then look for the DCIM folder on the internal sdcard partition. You should see a folder in there called camera.

If you are using a different app to record the video, you may have to look in the folder named for the app.

Hello and welcome aboard. :)

I take it that you have looked inside your photo gallery of your phone. Inside here (gallery) is where you can find all videos, pics and downloaded stuff. Also, here is an application that work similar to a computer to help you find, move, and edit stuff on the sd card on your device. See link below.

I hope this or the above-mentioned post helps. ツ
