SOURCE: Card Reading Write Protected

hi there

some card do have a physical lock onto itself to protect files.

please check your card and look for a small switch, its usually at the side. click it up or down and try re inserting it to your cam. if this still isnt any help, it must be a setting on your cam.

hope this helps. :)

Hi photobug,

I've had some experience with a Stylus 710 (/w XD M & H cards) and an E-Volt-510.(XD and CF). Give us some more info like:
-what kind of ipod (generation/size), size (resolution) of you photos you want to transfer,
-type of computer (mac, windows), what operating system (Tiger/Leopard, 98, 00, XP, Vista),
-the method you are copying the photos (Olympus Master, Studio, Explorer, iTunes, etc.), &
-what are you intensions of copying the files to the ipod (display and view only on the ipod [ipod resolution], backup storage medium [original files], or just to clean up you XD card [original files], or temporary transfer medium to photo kiosk [print later]?

Answer these questions and I may offer some recommendations that worked for me.

Sounds as if the memory card may be corrupted. In order to remove the write protect, make sure you have downloaded and saved all of the images from the memory card to your computer and then having the card in the camera you will need to run the format option and this will permanently remove the write protect as well as all of the images from the card.
The card should be able to be used again after the write protect is removed.

If you are using an SD card, it could be possible that the Write Protect tab (the yellow tab on the top right) is in the 'lock' position. Slide it back and try again. If this does not work, make sure you are using the card and not the internal memory to store images.
