Hi there,

We've got an iPod photo, which we've used now for a while to store photos and video files when our 1Gb Compact Flash card in the digital camera gets full.

We've just got back from a holiday, and I've copied all the files (mixture of photos and video files) to the PC, and they all work fine.

However on the day (her 40th Birthday) when I took some photos, then 2 videos where she opened her presents and found a marriage proposal inside.... on the iPod itself it shows the photos, plus the 2 video files as usual.... but when I go to transfer these to the PC, it only copies the photos, not showing these 2 video files at all... even when you go into the iPod's drive through 'my computer'... it doesnt show the 2 video files.

Does anybody have any idea why these might show on the ipod when you go into 'photos... photo import.... roll #5... browse' ...........but NOT when you look at it on the PC?

I could have lost all the photos from the 2 weeks and I wouldnt have minded... but i NEEDED to keep this video.... I have short term memory problems and I'll forget the look on her face and her tears and the 'yes' she blurted out if I dont have this video to watch

thanks in advance for any help you can offer

Make sure they are not hidden somehow. Set the Folder Options in Windows to show all hidden files and folders and try looking for those 2 videos again.
