You need to go back to the protect menu to un-protect them! You can see the manual below: http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/200703/20070330162556328_DigimaxS500_S600_ENG.pdf Hope this works for you...

Check if the pictures are not "damaged" on the memory card. Check if you did not protect the pictures. Most camera's have this button or menu setting, placing a little key logo in the picture, telling you it is protected from deleting and copying.
No brand, no model, I can't go for more details.
