Guess what happened, Note didn't see anything on the card, just a DCIM folder. A PC we put it in couldn't see anything either and the N900 as well.

So, long story short, Note (unmodded, with stock ROM) formatted my card without asking.

Isn't it nice when a device/operating system thinks it knows just right what you want to do?

PS: I was able to recover all the data in some form, but it was real pain in the a**, so let this be an example of what to be aware of.
Interesting. I took my MicroSD card directly from my N900 to use in my Note 2 without any problem (and during the first couple of weeks I had it I went back and forth a couple of times).

Funny, exactly the same thing happened to me. The only difference was the device. All other circumstances including the OS were the same.

That's really weird.
This hasn't happened to me before, and I hope it never does.

However, thanks for the heads up
+1 all around

Happened to me first time I used an Android device, while inserting the micro sd card from my N900 inside it. In my case, I think it was due to me not unmounting the card before pulling it out of the Android.
