you can try this memory card recovery software called asoftech photo recovery that helped me before1. Do not save any new file to memory card.2. Connect your card to computer. You should see memory card shown as a drive letter (like H:) in My Computer.3. Download recovery software, recommended one is this photo recovery (simply because i was using it and it worked)http://www.asoftech.com/apr/4. Install and open the photo recovery program, select your memory drive, and click 'Start' button to start scanning process which will find your deleted photos.

Look on the side of the card, there is a switch. Just slide it and you will unlock your card.

If it's still a usable card, I would suggest just placing it back into your camera and then connecting it via USB cord.If that doesn't work, check if your computer has a slot for SD cards. If it does, try placing the card in one of the slots gently.

My first item to Trouble shoot i think would be your media card reader, check in your device manager to see if there are any conflicts in the driver or if a driver is even installed for it. if there is a conflict, go to your pc manufacture website go to support , drivers an download the card reader and reinstall. Also is there any data on the card? and if not has it been formated yet?

I wish that I could provide hope. Unfortunatly when this device is dead it is dead.

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!

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

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

The switch goes fully forward for unlocked and fully back (away from the contacts) to lock it.

A flash card wears out every single time you use it. Yours has just reached its end of life - it's dead. Replace it.

#1
Insert your memory card into your computer's reader if you have one. If not, you can purchase a multi-format USB Memory Card reader from Amazon.com or Buy.com
#2
Open up 'My Computer'. You should see it under the list of available drives.
#3
Check its contents first to make sure that you have the right drive.
#4
In 'My Computer', right-click on the drive and choose 'Format'.
#5
Leave all the options as they are and click on 'Start'. This is a non-reversible process so make sure this is what you truly wanted to do in the first place.
#6
Once the process is completed, take the memory card out and insert it into your Digital Camera or any other device. Try to browse to it to make sure it works fine now.

There is a white switch on the side of those sticks, and make sure it is not in write protected mode. If that doesn't work, I am sorry to say that stick might of went bad. Before giving up I would take to a professional film place and have them take a look to see if they can get them off w/o formatting.

Memory cards are not made to hold pictures permanently. Like any stored data, they can be glitched and then you've lost the data. You should always copy them to the computer hard drive AND make a backup or 2. Even CDs can go bad. All my pictures are stored at least 2 but sometimes 3 places. Perhaps there is a way to retrieve the data, but I do not know how. Contact the manufacturer and see it they can help... but I'm afraid you've lost them.

Hi

there should be a little switch on the side of the memory card to lock and unlock it.

Keep us posted.

Can you not go to your camera setting and change it?
Some types of chips have a little lock button on the top.
