Downloading images from a corrupted memory card is possible.
Corrupt photos are digital photo files that have some kind error written in them. The problem may prevent your photos from being viewed or transferring properly from your camera to your home computer. A corrupt file does not necessarily mean that the pictures are lost forever. You may be able to recover the corrupt images yourself by using software available on the Internet.
Instructions
1. Select the software you want to use to try and recover your corrupted photos.There are a number of programs available, including "Photo Rescue," "ADRC Data Recovery" and "Recover Files 2." These programs are either free or have a free trial period.
2. Open the software you just downloaded to your computer.
3. Connect the memory card or digital camera to your computer using a card reader or USB cable. Wait a moment for your computer to acknowledge the new connection.
4. Run the software on your memory card or digital camera. The user interface is different from program to program but the steps are essentially the same. You must select the icon identifying your memory card or camera for the software to analyse.
5. Select the file you want to download to your computer. Identify the location you want the image to be saved to and click "Ok" or "Save." You should now be able to open the corrupted file on your computer.
