Unprotect the picture first. Press the playback button (the right-pointing triangle), then select the key icon from the menu. Details are in the "Protecting images" section of the manual (page 71 in my copy). If you need a manual, you can download one from

Some pictures are "protect"...I cannot erase them,

Press the MENU button, select the Playback tab (right-pointing arrow), select [Protect], and press the FUNC/SET button.

Full details are in the "Protecting images" section of the manual (page 116 in my copy). If you need a manual, you can download a copy at

I'd like to delete all the pics on the card, but its not allowing me to.

Check thath the pictures are not 'protected' and the card is not in 'lock'-position. If you're not able to delete the pictures in the camera, use a card reader and delete them in the computer. You can also 'move' the pictures during download instead of just 'copy' them. This will clear the card. Also formatting the card will erase any files on the card.

Pictures ahve been downloaded card now locked and cannot erase any picture off the camera can you please help

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.

Erased pictures.

You can try connecting the memory card to a PC via a memory card reader and using an undelete utility to recover the files. Go to this link for a step-by-step procedure and software references (free). http://www.ehow.com/how_4461259_restore-deleted-files-sd-card.html

My camera says write protect and won't let me take pics

Sounds like you will need to format the memory card. This will permanently erase all the data from the card and then you will be able to use it again. To format the card: Press the Ok button - right arrow to Mode Menu - down arrow to Card tab - right arrow to card setup - right arrow to format option. You will see format yes or no. Choose Yes and press ok. This will clear the write protect message and the card can be used again.
