Re:
Remove the memory card from the camera if it isn't already, and look
along the left edge of the card. Find a small tab and slide it forward
(to the unlock position) and carefully slip the card back into the
camera and try again. If it reports locked again, carefully remove the
card to see if the tab has moved back to the locked position.
If
the tab is moving to the locked position during the insertion process,
you could place a small amount of tape along the card edge - over the
tab - and carefully insert the card again. You might have to remove
some tape to allow the card to fit into to slot. If you never lock the
card - you could put a very small drop of super glue on the tab to hold
it in place. Wait for the glue to set completely before inserting into
the camera.

Remove the card and see if the pictures remain on the camera. If they do, then they are stored in camera memory. Make sure the memory lock on the card is in the proper position. Put the card back into your computer and delete the pictures. Then format the card, and try the card again. If the card is still locked, try a different memory card that has been formatted.
Look at your memory card. SD 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.
SD/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.

The most common cause for telling you that the card is locked is having the tiny slide switch on the side of the card in the wrong position.
- see photo below: Set the lock slider to locked or unlocked.
The down position will enable write-protection, locking the card.
The up position will unlock the card, enabling you to save and erase data on the card
If you remove the card from the camera, there is a little switch on the SD Card. There is typically a label that shows which direction is locked. If not, switch it to the opposite side. This should solve the problem. Otherwise, there could be a problem with your card. I hope this solves the problem.
What you need to do is take out the card, and on the side of it there
should be a little gray thing which can slide up and down. It needs to
be slid all the way up. I hope this helps!!
