Hi crichworks and welcome.

What make and type of memory card are you using?

If you are using a SD Card, this has a physical lock on the card itelf which needs sliding to unlock.

If you are using a Memory Stick, when and where did you buy it?  Some older ones also have a physical switch: -

Hi @Violet19, welcome to the community.

Most memory cards have a sliding switch on the side, which acts as a lock and prevents data being written to it. The word 'Lock', along with an arrow, should be written alongside; you would obviously want to move the switch the opposite way to unlock the card.

Hopefully that fixes it.
