Maybe it's been a long day, but I am so confused to why there is a poll here.

I think he is trying to ask. He was taping a show and accidently removed the battery before stopping the minidisc. So he now has a minidisc that did not close out the TOC. He wants to know if he can recover the music on the disc.

I think theres someway to recover partial amounts maybe?  I don't know how.

yes i was confused.

[Microbe]

If the question is how to recover data by fixing the TOC here's a link:

There's also a few places that will do it for you (search around)  or you can go here and do a search:

The only one?

I guess nobody has ever been able to get thier D100 or M1 through security.

battery needed for recording, answer is no unless you put the battery back in.

In that case you may want to try audiohack, if you were recording a wav file and can copy the crusty remnants to a 'puter.
If it was in that MD native file format, I couldn't say.
