Canon IXUS 95 IS gives me a report: card locked, while the card is not locked; gives me a report; memory card error please tell me what is wrong?

Hello,
The Canon PowerShot SD1200 uses SD and SDHC cards. These cards have a small plastic slider on the front of the card that will lock/unlock the card.

See the example below:


Slide the lock switch in the opposite direction.

Please let me know if I can further assist you.

Your memory card is an SD type. These cards have a little switch on the card that can write protect or "lock" it. Take the card out of the camera and check this switch. To unlock it, it should be moved towards the edge of the card which has the electrical contacts.

Yes. The IXUS 60 was designed to work with SD cards. Cards larger than 2GB are actually SDHC (the HC stands for High Capacity) and will not work in this camera.

Move the slide switch on the side of the card.

New cards must be formatted in the camera to work properly.

.....Open your memory card........Adapter And see There IZZ a ThiNg named Lockand UNLOCk That!!!! i guEsS that woULd Work.....

I assume that you know that there is a tiny tiny on-off switch on the edge of each SD card. If they are locked in the off position....

Hi!
You have to unlock your memory card. All memory cards have this small lock mechanism on the side.



Make sure that the slider is on the UNLOCK position. If it's already on the UNLOCK position and you are still getting the same error message, try to set it to LOCK, then set it back to UNLOCK position.


I hope that helps.

Good luck and have a nice day!

canon camera xius 80 showing - memory card locked .... please help... it beeps at the atempt of clicking photos

Dear codger19:

If your camera gives you "card locked" error messages with several cards and you KNOW that the cards are indeed not locked via the sliding lock mechanism, then your camera needs to be sent in for service as it has developed and electrical communications problem within the memory card control function.

I would first however try a hard reset by resetting your camera to the default settings, removing the battery and memory card for two minutes, and then replacing them. Retest the cards for the error message. If it still occurs then call 1-800-828-8080 for your options.

Hope this helps.

Sincerely,
