    I'm not very computer literate. I was wondering if you viewed pictures from your f drive or went to a site and browsed pictures from your f drive and downloaded them onto that site are they saved anywhere on your computer? If so how do you find and access them. Thank you!

    Hmmm... I'm afraid you're not going to get very helpful answers to this question

    The f: drive is a logical representation of a location on your system. This could be space or folders on your computers hard drive, CD/DVD drives, or folders accessible on a network. Essentially, it's different for everyone. We don't know what your f: drive is.

    However, if you were browsing the internet, and the page had pictures, they ARE temporatily saved on your computer, so that viewing them again will be quicker (loading it from hard drive as opposed to from the internet)...where they are depends on the operating system you're using... which is????

    I use Windows XP. The original card from my digital camera was destroyed and I viewed them on my computer a couple of times but didn't save. I also downloaded them onto another site for a sweepstakes that has since ended so I was hoping they are in my computer somewhere.

    sadly if you didnt physically save them to your hard drive then they would have only been viewed off the media card and are not thus saved in any temp or folder on your HD.

    What happened to your media card? if it ended up corrupt its possible that you can recover off that, but if its physically damaged then most likely not, but if your PC recognises the card but will not open the pictures then try this software http://www.pcinspector.de/smart_media_recovery/uk/welcome.htm

    The website that you uploaded them too is it still active, as in the sweepstake page did it show your images when viewing a page? did you contact the owners of the website to see if they have the images still?


    other than those I can think of, i'd think your out of luck.
