SD cards have a slide switch along one edge. The position farthest from the contacts locks the card, protecting it from writes. The position nearest the contacts unlocks the card. If the switch is already in the proper position, slide it fully the other way and then back again. It's not hard for the switch to be nudged by the edge of the slot when inserting the card, or by fingers when handling it.

Can not locate write-protect switch
Open the access door and remove your SD card. Hold the card with the label facing you and the angled corner to the top right. Look along the left edge and you will see the very small slide switch. Down is the locked position and up is the unlocked position.

SD and Micro SD memory cards has a small slide switch on the edge of the card, which write protects data on the memory card or add photos to the SD card. Slide the switch from the LOCK position to the UNLOCK position, which is furthest away from the contacts.

I have a Canon Powershot SD1100 IS gigital elph and when i turn my camera on it says "Card Locked!" I don't know how to unlock my memory card or how it was even locked in the first place....
Take the memory card out of your camera.
Hold it in your right hand.
On the left side you will see a very small slider switch. It will probably be in the down position.
Slide it to the up position and see what happens.
This switch toggles the card between Read/Write and Read Only. If it is on read only it locks the card.

Hi,
This used to happen when the write protect lock on in the memory card. Refer the manual to see how to remove the memory card.
After removing the memory card, unlock the write protect tab as shown in the fig. d7656e6.jpg

Memory card locked
I noticed that this camera does not work well with cheaper memory cards. The only brand that works without fail is the SanDisk brand.
