Denise,

I use an SD card in my Palm and mine is a sandisk 512 Mbyte. It has a lock switch down the left hand side. When locked the contents is locked. this may be what is causing the problem. Just check and see. I always thought it was read only but it may be causing problems. It is a slim possibility.

Alternately you have a protection problem - try get info when the disk is mounted (which happens when iphoto sees the camera) to desktop and look at a file. Maybe you could also drag them to the desktop.

Hi all -esp photographers,
I recently went to take a series of photos of my niece's new baby but found I had no card in my Canon SLR camera so borrowed her SD card and took a heap of photos using my camera. I made sure I wasn't taking RAWS, just JPGs but now find I can't transfer the photos to my iMac. All the photos are visible when previewing on my camera (and other cameras) but when I initially put the SD card into my camera, I get the message "card 2, write protected". I can't take another photo or do anything, except view using Preview. My card reader is only for Flash cards so I've hooked the camera directly to the iMac and gone through all the usual steps to download from the camera, but
nothing shows. I then tried PhotoRescue (which I've used before for a
different reason) but it can't find the card either.
Help please! Is there ANY way to download 'write protected photos'? I
definitely didn't choose this option from my camera's menu either (I can
take photos when a Flash card is inserted).
TIA
