Err, FileManager - N9 - LongTap
Which file manager?
But to the OP:
it is possible to recover from that on device. But possibly you need opensh or be in open mode.
devel-su
develsh
/sbin/sfdisk -l /dev/mmcblk0
will show you partition layout.
You need 'c' (W95 Fat32) for first partition /dev/mmcblk0p1. Change that with sfdisk. And then recreate file system with mkfs.vfat.
/sbin/mkfs.vfat -n MyDocs /dev/mmcblk0p1

Erm, yes. 
You are welcome.
Forgot to tell that you may also have had a chance (still have, but lesser chance) to recover the old files on MyDocs with testdisk or any other recovery tool from PC.

How do i do that? Just mount MyDocs as Mass storage on PC and then run testdisk from PC on it? Thanks!

Yep.
(For N900 there is testdisk available in repos. But for N9 I do not know availability, maybe in openrepos.net?)

Thanks!!

I've never had much success with testdisk. I ended up writing my own recovery utility to read deleted directory entries, follow them and copy the appropriate number of clusters to a new file. It is very crude and not fit for public consumption. And it only works on deleted files, not on formatted partitions. But, if there is enough interest, I can share the source and let people use it at their own risk.
