photos not on CF card

I took over 500 photos. They were on the card as I was scrolling through them throughtout the night. I came home removed the card from the camera and plug it into the card reader. No photos showed up. I put it back in the camera and the photos were not viewable. I then took one photo and then plugged it back into card reader and that one photo showed up, I'm freaking out. I tried a recovery program I bought. Only a few photos showed up and it looks like ones that I had deleted in camera. There were a few more that came up and they had a name of xmg file and were not good. They opened up but very little and blurry.

Sorry, sounds like you have done everything you can.

That happened once to me with a Lexar CF card. I sent the card back to Lexar and they were able to recover the photos for me. They sent me back a CD with the photos at no cost.

Since then I only use Sandisk cards and have never had another problem.
