  Main Question - Posted From Guest:
I cant write to my SD memory card.  Its a canon sd memory ard 16 meg that I could write to fine until yesterday now I can't write to it at all.  When I check the properties and test the card it says read only or write protected.  Does this mean its going bad?  How can it be write protected when I could wrte fine the ohter day?  Anyways I can't find any option to remove the write portection on it

Guest Says:
There is a small plastic switch on the side of the memory card, slide it the other way.  This sounds wierd but it happens often, people accidently hit it with their fingers and slide it, so suddenly everything becomes write protected :)
