Recover MP3 files after format hard drive or deleted by a mistake operation


MP3 file will “lose” in certain situations. For example, it may lose a MP3 file if MP3 player software is forced to quit unexpectedly, or if your computer has a power interruption while you’re playing, or if you close the file without saving changes,or virus attacks,or fomatted by a mistake,or deleted by a mistake operation.
If you format hard drive and deleted MP3 files by a mistake operation will loss data,you need data recovery software to recover MP3 files.
MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3( MP3 ), is a patented digital audio encoding format using a form of lossy data compression. It is a common audio format for consumer audio storage, as well as a de facto standard of digital audio compression for the transfer and playback of music on digital audio players. MP3 is an audio-specific format that was designed by the Moving Picture Experts Group as part of its MPEG-1 standard.
The use in MP3 of a lossy compression algorithm is designed to greatly reduce the amount of data required to represent the audio recording and still sound like a faithful reproduction of the original uncompressed audio for most listeners. An MP3 file that is created using the setting of 128 kbit/s will result in a file that is about 1/11th the size of the CD file created from the original audio source. An MP3 file can also be constructed at higher or lower bit rates, with higher or lower resulting quality. The compression works by reducing accuracy of certain parts of sound that are deemed beyond the auditory resolution ability of most people.

The MPEG-1 standard does not include a precise specification for an MP3 encoder, but does provide example psychoacoustic models, rate loop, and the like in the non-normative part of the original standard.
Decoding, on the other hand, is carefully defined in the standard. Most decoders are “bitstream compliant”, which means that the decompressed output – that they produce from a given MP3 file – will be the same, within a specified degree of rounding tolerance, as the output specified mathematically in the ISO/IEC standard document.
Several bit rates are specified in the MPEG-1 Layer 3 standard: 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 80, 96, 112, 128, 160, 192, 224, 256 and 320 kbit/s, and the available sampling frequencies are 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz.

When performing lossy audio encoding, such as creating an MP3 file, there is a trade-off between the amount of space used and the sound quality of the result. Typically, the creator is allowed to set a bit rate, which specifies how many kilobits the file may use per second of audio. Using a lower bit rate provides a relatively lower audio quality and produces a smaller file size. Likewise, using a higher bit rate outputs a higher quality audio, but also results in a larger file.

Windows Recovery after “Unmountable Boot Volume” Error in MS Windows XP


Every Windows XP computer contains a mountable or system volume, which has operating system installed on it. After completion of POST (Power On Self Test) operation, your computer reads the system partition and loads operating system. However, if your system is unable to recognize the boot or system partition, your Windows machine may not boot up.

This behavior enders your system unusable and inaccessible, causing severe data loss. In such critical situations, an updated and valid backup proves great help. But, if backup is not available, windows recovery is the only way to go.

In a practical instance of unbootable Windows XP computer, you may come across the below error messages while booting up y our computer:

“Unmountable Boot Volume”

After the above error message, boot process gets interrupted. The operating system can not load and you can not get into your system. In order to fix this behavior and recover Windows data, you must figure out the root of this problem.

What causes ‘Unmountable Boot Volume’ Error in Windows XP?

You may run across this behavior of Windows XP due to any of the below reasons:

The Boot.ini file of your Windows XP computer is either missing or damaged.

The hard drive is bad and unreadable.

Solution

There are two possible solutions of this problem, depending upon the cause of the problem:

Missing or Corrupt Boot.ini File-

Boot your system in recovery console.

Type chkdsk /p in recovery console to check if drive is bad.

Reboot your system if chkdsk does not find any error.

If you system has same problem after running chkdsk, reboot your system back into recovery console.

Run chkdsk /r to locate bad sectors and retrieve data.

Bad or Unreadable Hard Drive-

If critical data structures, like file system, boot loader, and MBR (Master Boot Record) of your Windows XP, are corrupt, you need to format the hard drive and reinstall operating system to fix the issue.

Although, formatting can fix most of such errors with your Windows computer, but also removes all the data from hard drive and puts you in need of Windows Data recovery.

Recovery is potential through advanced and powerful third-party tools, known as windows data recovery software. They are competent enough to systematically scan entire hard drive and extract as much data as possible from it.

Stellar Phoenix Windows Data Recovery is the most efficient and indigenous utility to ensure absolute recovery in all data loss situations. The software works well with Microsoft Windows 7, Vista, 2003, XP, and 2000. It supports recovery from NTFS5, NTFS, FAT32, VFAT, FAT16, and FAT12 file system partitions.

mp3/mp4 player lost memory after format


have bought one mp3/mp4 player from china. It had 2 GB memory and it had new version of firmware. Due to some error in mp3 player, I format it. Then when I checked memory space, I found that it has only 109 MB. I don’t know why mp3/mp4 player lost memory after format. Anyone else having the same problem. Please help me.
Thank you.

Re: mp3/mp4 player lost memory after format
Hey you are using fake mp3/mp4 player and that’s why you are getting such type of problem. You must check before buying whether it is working properly or not. Most of the people have such type of problem, who have take china made electronic device. If your mp3/mp4 player has warranty then you have toreplace it with new one to get rid out of this problem.

Re: mp3/mp4 player lost memory after format
Have you tried to format it using Command prompt. If not then use following steps to do this.
1.First connect your mp3/mp4 player to computer.
2.Now open Command prompt.
3.Now type “format _ ” (Instead of “_” use drive letter of your mp3/mp4 player )
That’s it.

Re: mp3/mp4 player lost memory after format
You have to use TestDisk utility to fix this problem. TestDisk is a powerful free data recovery software! It was primarily designed to help recover lost partitions and/or make non-booting disks bootable again when these symptoms are caused by faulty software, certain types of viruses or human error (such as accidentally deleting a Partition Table). Partition table recovery using TestDisk is really easy.

Re: mp3/mp4 player lost memory after format
I able to fix this problem by using SD Formatter 2.0. I think you also use it to get rid out of this problem. This software formats all SD memory cards and SDHC memory cards using a formatting program that complies with official SD memory card requirements. SD formatting provides quick and easy access to your SD memory card. SD or SDHC memory card file systems formatted with generic operating system formatting software do not comply with official SD memory card requirements and optimum performance may not be experienced.

Re: mp3/mp4 player lost memory after format
I also had the same problem. Then as per your answer I used TestDisk utility to fix this problem and it really works for me. But one problem is there. I able to recover only 1gb from it. This means that now my mp3/mp4 player shows only 1gb free space instead of 2gb. Can anyone tell me how do I get back to 2gb. Is there any kind of software available.

Re: mp3/mp4 player lost memory after format
Hey I also have the same model and same problem. I also format my mp3 player and then it shows only 178mb free space. I tried various method to fix this problem, but nothing happened. Then after frustrating I replace my mp3/mp4 player with new one and I able to fix this problem. I think you also replace your mp3/mp4 player with new one to get rid out of this problem.

How to Recover After Partition Boot Sector is Corrupted?


In Windows, each hard disk partition has its distinct partition boot sector, while the file system uses to access it. It is similar in concept with Master Boot Sector , but is different too as the latter controls the entire disk. Also called volume boot sector, it is used by MBR on the system partition in order to load the Windows kernel files. A normal functioning computer depends on this boot sector to access the partition or volume. If lost or damaged, it can cause partition to become inaccessible and raise data loss situations. Thus, it is suggested to always check your disk using utilities, like chkdsk and/or have a complete backup of your important documents. However, you can also use windows data recovery utilities in such cases.

For example, you can consider a practical situation when you try to boot a Windows-based computer system. It might fail with one of the below mentioned errors:

Non System Disk”

Or

Disk Error”

Cause

The boot partition has become unbootable because its partition boot sector is either damaged or unreadable.

Solution

To recover from problems discussed above, you can opt for any of the following fixes:

  • In case of NTFS, the backup of partition boot sector is located at its end or start. You can try to locate it to restore

  • You can boot your computer using Windows installation disk or startup disk. You can then choose repair option to start Recovery Console and then run FIXBOOT command to try repairing the boot sector

  • If the above measures fail, the only solution is to use a windows partition recovery utility. These are exclusive products that use advanced techniques to allow data access even if the backup boot sector is not available.

Windows Data Recovery tools are the most suitable tools to recover and restore lost data after logical crashes to the system. They provide you safe data access while giving you self-explanatory interface to work with. Also, the tools are easy-to-use with no prior requirements to have technical skills.

Stellar Phoenix Windows Data Recovery is one of the trusted products that provides comprehensive windows partition recovery. The tool incorporates high-end scanning algorithms and an interactive user interface. It supports Windows, Vista, XP, 2003 and 2000 operating systems. It provides advanced disk recovery features, which include RAW File Recovery, Drive Status, Disk Cloning and others.

Partitions Inaccessibile After Server Exception Error in Windows 2000


After the mini-port drivers, class drivers and SCSI disk are initialized during Windows boot process, the system queries the BIOS for drive translation. The general value returned by most of the SCSI devices is 255 heads and 63 sectors for each track. Windows 2000 uses this value as default when the SCSI adapter BIOS is turned off. Windows NT also performs similar kind of computation while such situations, but uses smaller values. For this reason, you might encounter several issues after you upgrade your system to Windows 2000, when the drive translation feature is turned off. The partition table might get corrupt if you try to alter it anyway, for example when attempting to create or delete a disk partition. However, to restore such partitions, it is suggested to apply a valid data backup or use Partition Recovery Software to extract them.

To exemplify, consider an instance when you try to use Disk Management to delete or create a new logical drive in extended partition of your Windows 2000 based computer. The operation might fail with the below error message:

The Server Threw an Exception”

You cannot access the logical drives of the extended partition after this error message occurs. The drives are either lost or damaged.

Cause

The error primarily occurs when you use a Windows 2000 system that has been upgraded from Windows NT 4.0. If the drive translation feature is turned off or the drive has been moved to a controller position where no drive translation is performed, the differences in ways Windows 2000 and NT handle drive translation can cause the drives to render inaccessible. This happens because Disk Management needs to perform few modifications in disk partition table.

Solution

  • To prevent such situations from occurring, it is suggested that you install all the latest updates available for your operating system.

  • For already lost and damaged logical drives, you should check your backup to achieve recovery. If no suitable backup is present or its proves invalid for any reason, you need to opt for a Partition Recovery utility. Partition Recovery Software come with advanced scanning algorithms, graphically rich user interface and powerful features that allow for complete recovery results.

Data Recovery Software is a professional and reliable Partition Recovery tool with advanced options and features. It is a safe utility that supports Windows 7 RC1, Vista, XP, 2003 and 2000 based systems. The tool provides you advanced features like Append Header, RAW File Recovery, Save Scan and more.

Windows Error After Running Uninstal.exe


Uninstal.exe is a Windows uninstall program. But in some specific set of conditions, the process might replace FAT32 MBR, thereby resulting into inaccessible primary partition (usually C:) of system. Such situations require performing steps like recreating the primary partition and reinstalling Windows. So, to restore the lost information, you should use your recent data backup available or scan your affected hard drive by using powerful data recovery applications.

Consider an instance, you try to run Uninstal.exe in real mode, but instead of expected behavior, you encounter an error message describing that Winundo.dat is missing or damaged. The error further gives you an option to continue. Clicking either of the options (Yes or No) gives you the below error message:

Invalid system disk”

This error appears after the system restarts.

Cause

The above behavior is exhibited when the following set of conditions is true:

  • You have converted your primary drive to FAT32 file system using Drive Converter utility

  • You have run Uninstal.exe from Windows startup disk or restored it manually

  • You have run Uninstal.exe in real mode

Or

  • You have installed Windows

  • You have used a third-party disk partitioning utility

  • You have run Uninstal.exe

In the former case, running Uninstal.exe replaces FAT32 MBR with backup of FAT16 MBR and you observe the above error messages. However, in the latter scenario, the issue is observed if partitioning utility affects the partitioning structure of the disk.

Solution

To resolve such issues, you need to perform these steps in order:

  • Recreate you primary drive using utilities like Fdisk.exe

  • Reformat the primary drive

  • Reinstall Windows and other applications

  • Restore data from backup

At times, you cannot restore from the present data backup. It might occur if backup is damaged or not updated completely. Thus, to cope up with such situations, you should use data recovery software. These are advanced data recovery tools built with indigenous technology to safely recover the lost information from logically crashed drives. Such tools provide you interactive user interface, powerful recovery features and several other added characteristics.

Stellar Phoenix Windows Data Recovery is a premier application to recover and restore lost data that supports Windows 7 (currently in RC 1), Vista, XP, 2003, and 2000. This read-only data recovery Software provides powerful features like Disk Cloning, Disk Imaging, Drive Status, RAW File recovery etc. It is compatible with FAT32, VFAT, NTFS and NTFS5 file systems.

Windows Unbootable After Killing Disk Check


If a Windows system undergoes unexpected shutdown, an automatic disk check runs that examines the disk for file system errors. Once the process starts, it should not be interrupted in anyway or otherwise can cause unrecoverable errors. Apart from rendering the data inaccessible, it can introduce several corruption errors to critical data structures of the disk. The data thus lost should be restored from available backup. However, you can use more effective products of partition recovery in case no access to valid data backup is feasible.

To illustrate it, consider a scenario of unexpected shutdown with your Windows based system. The next time when it restarts, the disk check runs to scrutinize the disk for consistency. You kill the operation, but when you restart the computer, the system is unable to boot. Consequently, you receive errors, such as it cannot locate Windows. The installation disk repair function fails too.

Additionally, when you attach the corrupted hard drive to gain data access, the Disk Management shows it with unknown status and displays the disk space as unallocated. You run a third-party tool to examine the disk and it gives errors that suggest that boot sector is bad and shows messages, similar to:

A valid NTFS (or FAT) Boot sector must be present in order to access any data; even if the partition is not bootable”

You cannot access the data stored on disk partitions.

Cause

The prime reasons for such behavior is that boot sector or partition table is badly damaged.

Solution

Since no Windows utility works to bring the hard disk back, you should use a third-party utility to write a new boot sector or partition table. Such tools can recreate Windows partitions, but won’t allow you to access the data. The lost data should be restored from the backup. However, if no suitable backup is available at present, you need to opt for a powerful partition recovery software.

Partition Recovery utilities are feature-rich products with advanced technology to restore lost, missing or deleted partitions. It is advised to use the product before formatting or repartitioning the disk to avoid any consequences due to data overwriting.

Stellar Phoenix Windows Data Recovery Services are an advanced solution known for complete retrieval of lost and missing Windows partitions. It uses effective scanning algorithms while adhering to data safety. This Windows partition recovery software is compatible with Windows 7 RC1, Vista, XP, 2003 and 2000.

If no, then you would be sole responsible for their permanent loss in future, if any. For preventing your digital photos getting lost, you should take some precautionary moves.

First of all, make a habit of taking regular backups of your photographs, videos from digital cameras. Reason for having backups is that there is always fear of wiping out of all our digital pictures due to various reasons like power surges, user error, improper handling and majorly virus attacks. Virus contamination in digital devices most of the times prove fatal for the data residing inside the digital cameras. Obviously no one would like to fall prey to such virus attacks and lose all the precious photographs. It is always better to be cautious by taking backups rather than taking risks with digital photographs.

These digital cameras, mobile cameras, pen drives, USB flash drives where we store our pics are known as external hard drives to our main computer. Computer viruses are the main danger for these drives. Viruses get easily transferred from the computer to these external drives and hence posing dangers to the file pictures. So what could be done to ensure digital photo recovery? You can take some precautions for avoiding any kind of virus attack situations, like

  • Never download fussy mails

  • Always have an up-to-date anti-virus on your system

  • Never connect any external virus infected device to your computer

If you are suspicious of virus contamination, then consider the following for lessening any further multiplying of virus.

  • Make sure that images or pictures from the infected system are not be mailed or transferred to anyone (the virus could attach itself to it).

  • Immediately use the anti-virus to scan and remove the virus.

  • Lastly, format the drive.

Your digital photos get corrupt or deleted or just become inaccessible due to virus contamination. If you are having backups then well and good, your data is saved. But if not, then there is no choice left than to take help of digital photo recovery software. Digital photo recovery tool are the real time digital data saver as they recover all photos from corrupted or unusable, virus contaminated digital media and storage devices. Kernel for digital media recovery software performs thorough scan of the drive and ensures complete digital photo recovery.

NTFS Logical Drive Deleted After Using Fdisk


The following reading describes an issue when you can lose an NTFS formatted logical drive in a dual-boot system using Windows XP. While such problems, you should make sure to have a valid data backup to restore it. But if it is unavailable for any reason, you need to use a powerful Windows Partition Recovery utility.

Consider the following scenario:

  • You configure to dual-boot between Windows 98 or 95 and Windows XP

  • One of the primary partitions is FAT formatted

  • You have two or more logical drives in an extended partition of Windows XP

  • An NTFS logical drive exists before the FAT logical drive

  • You use Fdisk to delete the FAT logical drive (occurring after NTFS logical drive), but can see only FAT logical drive labeled with drive letter of NTFS drive. You delete the FAT drive

  • You restart Windows XP, but the NTFS drive is no longer accessible in Logical Disk Manager

Cause

Such issues are observed because NTFS logical drive is not recognized by Fdisk in an extended partition. So, if an NTFS logical drives comes before FAT drive, it deletes the NTFS drive instead when you try to delete the FAT drive, for which you might not have complete backup.

Solution

To prevent such events from occurring, you should use Windows Logical Disk Manager to change logical drives’ information. It is recommended not to use Fdisk when dual-boot configuration between Windows 98 or 95 and Windows XP is being used.

After you accidentally delete the NTFS partition, its entire data is lost. To restore it, you should check the availability and status of backup. If it exists in valid form, you need to apply it. Alternatively, you can use Data Recovery Software products to recover it.

Windows Partition Recovery utilities are exclusively designed tools with powerful technology and interactive design that provide complete recovery of lost, deleted, damaged or missing Windows partitions.

Stellar Phoenix Windows Data Recovery is a reliable and globally known tool to recover lost and missing data. The tool uses advanced scanning algorithms, while adhering to data security.

Dynamic Volumes Inaccessibile in Windows Server 2003 After Upgrade


Windows Server 2003 doesn’t support all FTDisk (fault-tolerant) volumes that have ever existed in Windows NT Server 4.0 installed computer system. For this reason, when you upgrade your computer to Windows Server 2003, some of dynamic volumes might remain inaccessible. Along with other symptoms, you cannot access the data stored in these volumes. To restore them, Microsoft suggests using FTonline utility that allows you to temporarily mount the volumes and hence, backup data from. If due to any cause backup fails or you find it unfeasible using the tool, it is recommended to use Windows Partition Recovery products that allow recovering inaccessibile and lost disk partitions.

For example, consider you use a Windows NT Server 4.0 based computer system and create spanned, mirrored, striped or striped volumes with RAID 5 parity. You upgrade to Windows Server 2003, but when you try to access any of previously created volumes, you fail to do so. Additionally, when you view the Disk Management, these volumes are visible with ‘Healthy (Unknown Partition)’ status. The listing shows these volumes with no associated drive letter.

The similar behavior is observed when you move disks containing previously created NTDisk volumes on a basic disk of a Windows 2000-based computer system to a Windows Server 2003 installed computer

Cause

By design, Windows Server 2003 doesn’t support previously created Windows NT 4.0 FTDisk volumes.

Solution

Following sequence of steps can help you recovering from the existing issue:

Use FTonline utility that allows temporary data access to the inaccessibile FTDisk volumes. You can then take a full data backup of the volumes

After the backup process is done, you should delete those volumes

Convert the volumes to Dynamic disks and restore data from backup

If using FTonline is not possible or the backup comes out to be invalid when you try to restore, you need a Partition Recovery Software. Built with powerful partition recovery technology, these Windows Partition Recovery utilities prove highly-competent tools to recover and restore inaccessibile, damaged, missing or lost Windows partitions. You can use these products in any instance of Windows partition loss.

Stellar Phoenix Windows Data Recovery is a professional and completely reliable partition recovery tool with advanced options and features. It is a safe Partition Recovery Software that supports Windows 7 RC1, Vista, XP, 2003 and 2000 based systems. The tool provides you features like Append Header, RAW File Recovery, Save Scan and more.

Running Chkdsk After Disk De-fragmentation Cause Partition Loss in Windows


In Microsoft Windows operating system-based computer, you may need to run Disk Defragmenter to improve your system performance. This tool contiguously organize the files, which are divided into fragments. However, if the disk utility runs just after completion of defragmentation process, hard drive structure may get damaged. This behavior of Windows operating system results into critical partition loss situations and need Partition Recovery to be sorted out.

For example, after running Disk Defragmenter on your NTFS (New Technology File System) partition, Chkdsk might be scheduled to run next time, when you reboot your system. But, the Chkdsk/Autocheck may not find any problem with your hard drive. If you run Disk Defragmenter again on NTFS file system partition, Chkdsk might be scheduled to run again on next reboot. At this point of time, you may see following entries in System Event Log of your Windows computer:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: Ntfs
Event Category: Disk
Event ID: 55
Date: date
Time: time
User: N/A
Computer: computer name
Description: The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume F:.”

After this error message, your Windows partitions can not be accessed. In order to gain access of hard drive partitions and stored data, you need to find out the cause of this problem and perform Windows Partition Recovery by sorting it out.

Grounds of the issue

This issue may occur by a situation in Microsoft Windows Disk Defragmenter utility, which might prevent specified cluster of the data from being optimized. If Windows Disk Defragmenter utility cannot move any specific data element, move can not be done and you encounter an error in the system Event Log of Windows and the Chkdsk is scheduled. It damage file system structure on the hard drive.

Resolution

To fix this problem, try out any of the below methods:

  • Run the Disk Cleanup on NTFS partition.

  • Reformat the partition.

  • Move the drive on later version of Windows operating system and defragment it.

Though, formatting is able to fix all such problems, but it also removes hard drive partitions and cause critical partition loss situations. At this point. Partition Recovery Software come for your help.

The Windows Partition Recovery applications use high-end scanning methods for assured recovery. They come equipped with simple and rich graphical user interface to provide ease of use.

Stellar Phoenix Windows Data Recovery is the most excellent solution for all types of partition loss situations. It recovers data from FAT16, FAT32, VFAT, NTFS, and NTFS5 file system partitions. The software is designed for Windows 7, Vista, 2003, XP, and 2000.
