Hi Christina!
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. I am very sad like Eeyore to hear you can not locate the photos you downloaded from your magical vacation. If you are anything like me, you take tons of photos so that you can cherish the moments spent with friends and family at The Most Magical Place on Earth. I love buying
Memory Maker so that I can be in every shot with my family while the amazing
Disney PhotoPass photographers capture all the fun. I am hopeful you will be able to find all of your photos.
When your photos were taken they were either scanned into your account using your
MagicBand or you scanned a Disney PhotoPass card which you later added to your account. Once this happens you should have been able to see all the photos in your
My Disney Experience account. Photos do expire 45 days after they are captured, so you must have downloaded them to your computer using Memory Maker before this time. I would suggest looking in many different files on your computer and different folders. Since your pictures were captured last year the photos will not be available in the My Disney Experience any longer. Possibly even taking your computer to a service shop to help you look for the file would be helpful? Could you have named the file something unique? Or placed them in a file you don't normally use?
I wish you luck and hope you find the photos you downloaded last year. I have my fingers crossed that it will all work out practically perfectly and the photos will be found. If you need anything else answered, please let me know. Helping fellow Guests is what I enjoy most.
Dream as Dreamers Do,
Jen
