Hello

OK, if the memory card itself is locked, you might sometimes get this error code. All you need to do is to take out the memory card and switch the lever on the left side to the unlock.



If the error is still displayed after you did the above, you might want to try the card in another camera.

If the card works in another camera . the problem is with your card reader in your camera.

If you open you sd slot and look inside with a sharp light , you should be able to see on the left side of the slot there is a little copper or spring steel lever switch. This switch work as follows:

1. When no card is inserted / no write protection , the switch is open and thus the protection is off.
2. When locked card is inserted , the tab is depressed and tells the camera that the card is lock.

Contrary to popular belief ,the little tab on the sd card is not an electronic switch and does not physically influence the card operation itself. If you put a locked card into a camera without a sd lock switch , you would still be able to use the card normally.

It is incredible difficult to fix this switch because of space limitations in the sd card. Look into the sd slot and if you can see the switch , use a needle to pull the little tab down toward the base of the camera by about 2mm or until it works being careful not to bend it.

If this does not resolve your problem , there might be a short in the switch circuit and the camera will need to be disassembled to resolve this error. This should cost no more than $50.

Please feel free to contact me if you need further information

Kind regards

It could be the MP3 player doesn't recognize an 8 gb card... try a smaller one
OR
The SD card could be bad... try it in another device you know suuports an 8 gb card

Some computers will not support a large 8GB stick. The best some will do is 2GB, If you are running a computer pre-2001, you may not be able to use the 8GB stick (I have the same problem with my desktop PC). It just is not supported!

Go into "My Computer" and locate the card reader drive icon. If it's not there then you need to load its' driver. If it is there, merely double click on it to open the files contained in the card.

Thanx

go to computer right click on the card & select farmat & farmat it

The device has "died". Spend $8 to buy a new 2048 MB (32 times larger) flash-drive.

if your system makes a connection with the device on plugin , you should here a dual toned sound indicating its been plugged in and recognised. if you here this and still dont get a popup. the device can be found by opening my computer link in start menu and then selecting the removable or flash drive icon usually listed last in the letter labels. c: being your main hard drive and so on.

drag them from your pc to jumpdrive

You may need to try some photo recovery software to rescue the pictures, here are some for your option. You may not recover all the pictures, but will recover most of them.

Photo Recovery (for Windows)
Photo Recovery for Mac
Both programs are able to recover pictures, videos and music files.
Note: Before your files are recovered, do not attempt to save more files to the memory card or stick in case the original lost files are overwritten.

Usually this is and issue with the usb host to pci bus driver check the support website for a new one. PS usb 2.0 function usually doesn't just stop working on the flash drive itself

Hi

To format it Connect it to the computer, go to My computer-> right click on the mp3/mp4 player after it is displayed-> select format-> Format it as FAT32 File system. Formatting the MP3/MP4 player will delete all the songs/data from the player. So, backup all data before formatting it. Hope this helps...

insert the jumpdrive in your desktop pc and copy the contents from the pc to the jumpdrive... then insert the jumpdrive into the laptop pc and then copy the contents from the jumpdrive and paste it in your laptop pc at the specified place..

if you have moved everything off it, just right click and choose format.
You can do this from my computer, or disc managment (right click my computer/manage/disc managment)

Sounds like a format error on the storage. The bad news is the tunes stored on it are probably gone.
Do you have a mini USB B cable that you can connect to a PC? With this you can reformat the internal memory and the SD card.
Good luck.

The computer see the Lexar as a external storage device.
Just click on My Computer and you will see the Lexar as a E drive or some other drive letter. Double click on this to open the drive. You can create folders on this drive and copy and paste files to this drive or to the folders just like copying and deleting files on the C drive.

see if their might be some photos or file saved that you may have edited on the card maybe Microsoft visual studio's photo shop save to hard drive. delete with photo software and format put in camera format again. if it works with computer and not with the camera not compatible try another card
