Try a different card of same brand and model, or maybe of a different brand and size.

I have a nikon coolpix. It is continuously showing 'MEMORY CARD IS WRITE PROTECTED'. I cannot take any photos. Please help.

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.

Doesnt read the memory card

Hi,

Welcome to Fixya, possible reason why the memory card doesn't read by your camera are memory card is not yet formatted,memory card is in write protection mode,memory card requires cleaning,memory card was damaged, memory card is not compatible.

I have here the manual of your camera where you can check all error message and warning signs, together with their solutions. Just click here and please refer to page 156.

I hope this link will give a big help to you.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you for using Fixya,

I have a nikon coolpix s60 and when i go to view the pictures, the screen turns black and i cant turn the camera off unless i pull the battery

What name brand memory card do you use? I recently discovered myself that Nikon only supports SanDisk, Toshiba, Panasonic and Lexar. Try taking out the memory card and take pictures without the memory card inside the camera. If you can view the picture saved onto the camera memory then you will know that all you need is a new memory card, with one of the above mentioned name brands. Hope this helps.

What does it mean when my nikon coolpix s60 displays Memory card is write protected?

It means the card has been protected from writing, preserving its current contents.

Take the memory card out of the camera and look at it. SD and SDHC cards have a slide switch along one edge. The position farthest from the contacts locks the card, protecting it from writes. The position nearest the contacts unlocks the card. If the switch is already in the proper position, slide it fully the other way and then back again.

Memory card is write protected

there should be a little tab on the edge of the card with a open /closed padlock next to it the padlock is not usually there on the cheaper cards i think up (awat from the brass connector) is unlocked and down is locked

It won't accept memory cards, it always says it's write protected.

SD cards have a slide switch along one edge. The position farthest from the contacts locks the card, protecting it from writes. The position nearest the contacts unlocks the card. If the switch is already in the proper position, slide it fully the other way and then back again.
