I am not familiar with this type of card, but SD cards have a small protection switch on them. Ensure that this switch is not on a setting such as "write-only" or "write-protect". It is possible that the switch works only in "SD mode", and that the media accepts files as a thumb drive because it is being used in a different way.

Have a great day,
Alex

Subject: [Braillenote]  Two Gig SD Cards and the BN

Greetings:
My fiancé received for a holiday gift a Sandisk 2 gig SD card.
Note that this particular device can serve either as an SD card or a USB thumb drive, because when you unfold it, there is a tiny mechanism that can fit perfectly into a USB port. However, when the device is flat, it looks like any ordinary SD card. She attempted to back up files to this card, and received errors indicating that the card could not be written to. I have the same model only it is just one gig and it works fine with the Braillenote. Is there some kind of size limit that we are unaware of?
Note that when used with a PC as a USB thumb drive, it functions
just fine.
