The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error

My thumb drive (or Samsung MP3 player) stores some important data I
can no longer retrieve. Windows OS detects the plugged-in drive but
when I click on assigned letter, the error is:

E: is not accessible. The request could not be performed because of an
I/O device error

It happened after I plugged it into somebody's MAC, created a new
folder and copied some content in there. However, I never had problems
using the thumb drive with my own MAC.

Anyway, I do not want to format it and Fix Errors did not work. What
should I do now? Please recommend. I need to somehow get that data.

Thanks
