My camera says that the sims card is locked. i then unlocked the sims card and put it in the camera and now it says error. what should i do?
I have found that sometimes the little locking switch will lock itself as you push it into the card holder in the camera.My solution is to unlock the card, then use some scotch tape to hold the switch in place.
Hope this helps.

Take the card out. On the left side of the card is a tiny white switch. Reverse the position.

Hi!
For SD type memory card, the A800 can support up to 2GB only.
Your camera can also support other memory types at higher capacity - please refer to this link for complete details:

I hope that helps!
Good luck and have a nice day!

I had the same problem - just put the lock button of the card to the lock position and than again to the unlock position

First I know you've said you've checked the card's slide switch, but just want to restate this first for others with the same problem who may not know of this switch.
Check to make sure that you didn't accidentally place the tiny locking slide switch on the side of your SD card in the "locked" downward position. The correct "unlocked" position should be slid up toward the direction of the connectors.
If you've tried this, and it's still showing locked, it's likely that the locking switch inside the camera's card slot is stuck. If you look inside the slot on the side of the slot where the SD card slide switch would be, you'll see a glint of gold color on the side. This is the camera's lock/unlock switch. The other glint's of gold that you may see at the far end of the slot are the reader's connectors (ignore those).
Somehow, the locking switch is making contact and has become stuck in the locked position (a single grain of sand can jam it there). With a plastic toothpick, or other skinny NON-METALLIC item, tap and gently push against this switch to see if you can jar open the contact to its normal unlocked position. Also try blowing compressed air at it, to clear out any gunk that may have worked its way in there, jamming it closed. Occasionally, reinsert the SD card to see if the issue has been corrected.
If repeated tries fail, it may be time to consider opening the camera to force open this switch (not recommended unless you have some familiarity with electronics). In this case please see the following (xscrewdriver, hope you don't mind me referencing your blog):
