Write Protected SD card

[PPChallenged]

Everytime I try to copy a file on to my SD card it gives me an error saying that SD card is write protected. Well, if its for storage why wouldnt they let me store in it.

Any suggestions to get around this.

Thanks.

take the card out and check the write protect tab is not enabled.

I had that problem on my 3955, It turned out to be dust in the SD slot was causing a problem as all I did was blow into it a few times and it worked thereafter.

The pin that reads if the write protect switch is in the "protect" position might not be making proper contact either..
