When i inserted 4GB pendrive in the pc when i open the pendrive it doesn't open and shows write protection and it can't be formatted at this situation.

1.Look for a switch or button on the side of the micro SD card or adapter. It might have a lock/unlock symbol on it. 2.Move the switch to the "Unlocked" position to remove write protection. This position may also be labeled "R/W" for read/write. If you have no switch, continue to Step 3. 3.Download and install Sony EzRecover (see Resources for link) and attempt to use it to format the card (this will erase all content). If this doesn't work, try Step 4. 4.Delete and repartition the micro SD card using Windows XP. Select "Control Panel" > "Administrative Tools" > "Disk Management." Select the micro SD drive and click "Delete." Right-click on empty drive and select "New Partition."

I removed my pendrive without safe remove and its next ady onwards i am not able to detect my pendrive can anybody suggest some remedy??

Assuming that you are using windows, go to drive management and see if the pendrive is detected.
If so, right-click on it and format it.
Or look for the HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool and use it.

Pendrive is not formateing

look for a write-protect switch or tab...also check the attribute of the file, check if it is read only...you need to remove the read-only if it is set. Usually doing a full format will erase it
