In future only connect your N9 to a device with GNU/Linux as OS

Thanx a million guys, will try this when I get home tonight. I'll never connect my phone to anyone's PC ever again except for mine.

Bluetooth should do this, no?
Don't know about battery drain with BT though.

Connect ur N9 as mass storage device and use Checkdisk following these steps:

Hope this helps.
Solution failed

What's going to happen if I right-click N9 then Format? Will it wipe out everything or just the music, pics and videos?

Don't do it!!!

You will wipe the file system within mydocs, folders and all.

Alternatively I can wait for PR1.3 maybe it will fix this error.

I feel for you dude I'm trying to salvage a corrupt flash and lost mydocs partition as we speak. The APE algorithm message is not nice to see. Just remember to take your time, read the guide thoroughly before attempting to flash.

Like the old adage says "measure twice, cut once".


And for those who see the irony in me saying that... I did get my come uppance and took my bloody finger off

You can possibly recover the deleted images with testdisk / photorec

Ideally Harmattan would have a switch that makes the USB disk mounting read-only.
