Go to the playback menu and select it (you may have to adjust the circular option know to get to the playback menu). Once there, scroll to the picture(s) that are locked by using the sideways selection arrow buttons. Then select the up or down arrows, which will lock or unlock your picture. You can also erase any locked pictures, in case you want to, by formatting the xD card. Hope this helps.

Enter the Playback menu and select the Key icon. You can then protect/unprotect pictures. It's under "Playback Menu" in the manual.

SOURCE: Cant Take pictures

1) Take the card out, check the card, halfway up the left hand side, there may be a sliding notch. Move it to "Write enable".

or

2) Go through your camera menu look for photo protect, check if you've write protected all your photo's.

My SD card is locked and i cant get it unlocked

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.

How do i turn off "File Protect" and be able to delete again. It won't let me delete pictures and there is a little animated figure on the print that says digital camera out to the side with...

Hi,

You have accidentally selected lock option.You need to select unlock option for the same. Press the menu button and then press right/left button to select the protect menu. Then you need to select unlock and that would turn off file protect.

Kindly accept the solution so that i could get the credit for my time.

Thanks and Regards

Hi,
This used to happen when the write protect lock on in the memory card. Refer the manual to see how to remove the memory card.
After removing the memory card, unlock the write protect tab as shown in the fig. d7656e6.jpg

Samsung digimax4010 memorycard locked cant take pictures

To fix this, remove the SD card from your camera. Look on the side and you will find a little switch. One end of the switch says locked the other end says unlocked. Move the switch from locked to unlocked. Replace it in your camera and turn it back on.

Thanks for coming to FixYa and fee free to rate my solution.
