I have a 16GB sandick memory card in my htc desire and i take pics and vid and when i go to look at them they are there for like 10 mins go to look again and they have deleted there self so nothing shows up on memory card :mad: anyone got any idea what this could be to cause this ?
 
I had a similar problem. Don't panic. They're still there. Sometimes for reasons known only to the pixies that live under the big stone at the bottom of your garden, the Desire misreads the SD Card.

Just grab "Rescan Media" from the Market. Run it, and it forces your phone to scan the card. Then everything will show up just fine.

Promise.

No not every time. To be honest, it was a reoccurring issue I had, and I only ran this app once. Never had the problem again.

My 16Gig card only took a couple of seconds to scan.
