I lost Image Rescue when I had the logic board replaced on my MBP. The version that I had was Image Rescue think, which was complimentary. Anyone know if and how I can get another copy?  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

(http://www.lc-tech.com/software/prwindetail.html). It manages to find things that Image Rescue and a couple of other cannot.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I've been fortunate not to have had to use it as of late. But I helped shoot an AAU Track & Field meet this past weekend and we lost some images that a parent wanted to purchase. Unfortunately, we didn't have any image recovery software.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Both work well. I can't really say one is necessarily better than the other.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

After several anxious hours of letting the software scan the card, I got a preview of some pretty old images (many formats ago) but not the images from yesterday's assignment. My heart sank even further but I was somewhat encouraged to see that the software did recover so many old files. So, I purchased a key code and continued with the recovery process and lo and behold, yesterday's files showed up 100% intact. The software created two folders on my computer... one was the complete DCIM folder from yesterday's shoot, and a second one called "Recovered Files" in the same directory that contained all the ancient stuff. So, based on my experience I would suggest purchasing a key code even if you don't see your lost images on the preview from the free download... other than the lack of preview thumbnails from the most recent assignment, PhotoRescue worked great.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I purchased "Don't Panic-Photo edition" by Imagerecall on deadline one night, downloaded it and it saved my butt. Recovered the whole shoot in a mater of minutes and I made deadline. I can't give it any higher praise than that.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
