Unprotect memory card

posted by Forsaken08 on Jul 13, 2008

I cannot put the memory card into unprotected mode again.
How can I put it back, because I cannot take shots or even edit some settings if the card is protected. Please answer.
my camera just stooped recording shots in any mode... how do i fix this? could it be the memory 1.0 Gig Kingston memory chip? A virus? A setting, I think i checked them all.

Hi,

To set the memory card in unprotected mode, you have to do the following.

On the side of the SD chip, there is a little switch. Shift the switch away from "lock", then insert the card back into the camera.
This unprotects the card. You should now be able to take pictures and videos.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If this does not solve the problem, then it is very likely that the SD card is faulty. I would recommend using Panasonic, Lexar or Sandisk memory cards.

~Lexar SD card

~1 Panasonic SD card

~2 Panasonic SD card

~Sandisk SD card
