Look at your memory card. SD and SDHC cards have a slide switch along one edge. The position farthest from the metal contacts locks the card, protecting it from writes. The position nearest the contacts unlocks the card.

When this problem occur you need to set the memory card unlock or not protected. Remove the memory card from camera and you can see a small button in the memory card, so you need to slide that to set the memory card unlock or not protected.

Hello there,
You get this error when your card is write-protected. To unlock it, you have to take of the memory card from the camera. Usually its along the battery compartment. But you have to check the other sides just to make sure. One you have the card, look at the sides for a small switch. Push it the other way around to disable write-protect. Put it back to the camera and test.
Hope this helps you and someone out. Good luck!

There is a little sliding switch marked 'lock' on SD card. Move it up to unlock it.
