Snap Dangit... I lost/corrupted data on my P2 card by improperly disconnecting...

I wasn't thinking, and I turned off my HVX200 when the P2 card was mounted and importing on my MAC (using fcp6's log & transfer). Got the "data may have been lost, improperly disconnected" dialogue. Turned back on the camera, and I am missing a handful of clips that I hadn't imported yet. They were replaced by one clip that is bright BLUE and won't play.

Luckily, the clips aren't... CRITICAL... but dang, it would be nice to have them back...

Anyone had this happen before? Anyway to recover from this? Or are they gone for good?
 
Right... yeah... didn't do that this time. Putting that behind...

Is there anything I can do at this point to get the shots back? Any recovery tricks, software, etc.?
 
Are you saying the clips are blue on the Mac? Or on the card? I've turned the camera off while playing or recording before and it's never had a negative effect on the card. Sometimes you have to "repair" the last clip you were actively recording, but other than that, no negative effects. So what does the card look like, when you look at or play the clips back from the camera?
 
The clip is blue on the P2 card itself, looking at it on the HVX lcd screen - it's not on my Mac. Repair clip is grayed out, though I can try "repair clip (loop)", but that just brings up a message that says "no repair clip". The blue clip has a time of 00:00:00:00
