What's the format of the photos?

Which camera do you have?

Is it possible (very unlikely) that you have PC software with the camera to access the photos?

They all should be JPG. And ive got a Canon EOS 600D.
Hmm not so sure about the software, as i used the same ubs for other photos few weeks ago and was fine.
but im just not sure what the message cant playback photos meant went i try to view them on the camera

Stop trying to play them back in the camera, or directly off the card.
Copy all those files to the PC first.

Yes they are coping now, and what should i do later when is done?
as i cant open them?

Juliana_4 :

Then you have to determine why they can't be opened in the PC.

Possibly the SD card was corrupt.
Possibly trying to play/view them in the camera corrupted things.

Could be a lot of things.

But is it possible that I still can get my photos back? How to uncorrupted the SD card? Thanks

Completely unknown until you discover what is actually going on.
Now that you have these saved on the PC, what happens when you try to open them?
And what tool/application are you using to open them?

Also, now that you have these files copied to the PC, copy them again to another folder. Just in case how you try to 'fix' them is rather destructive.

^^^ THIS THIS THIS.

Make a backup of the files in a different area, and remove the original card and set it aside just in case.

Yes i have copied them all to my computer, its just says the same message we cant open this file. but some photos from earlier the day open it normally but not the rest.
i been opening them with the default photos opener Photos.
