Both of my adapters are unuseable as they state "Memory card is write protected" any ideas why they changed or how to fix them??

There should be a little switch-like thing on the adapter itself. When pushed one way it is write-protected, when it is pushed to the opposite end it should be open.

I found 3 sources that may be able to help you. http://techchannel.radioshack.com/remove-write-protection-microsd-card-1423.htmlhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AtGghH55Rwhttp://www.wikihow.com/Remove-Write-Protection-on-an-SD-CardApparently, there is a lock protection feature that you can unlock. Let me know if this works for you.

Your computer and/or adapter are (NOT COMPATIBLE) with sdHC cards. If you put in just a SD card you will see that it will work. Nothing to do with little switch-like thing on the adapter itself.

I am sorry but I do not have a clue.I am relatively new to this stuff also.

Is there a little tab on either one that can be. Over to protect it from being written on?

I have no idea but you can try to format the card again, this may solve the problem. If not, I'll suggest to return it.

haven't looked into that yet but i will be taking the camera to a friend of mine that works at a local ritz camera shop. i am hoping he will be knowlege able enought to figure out which memory card can be used.failing that i would think going to the cameras official website "should" provide the info or maybe a link to cantact them and ask questions.i know pc magazine also has a help section.. they might know

My camera did the same thing and at first I thought it was the camera and I thought about exchanging it for a new one. I instead bought another memory card to try first and since then I haven't had any issues.

Hi Doowon Kim, one possibility for this to happen is that the memory card you are using is under FAT32 file format. Try using a memory card under exFAT format like microSDXC. -Ely

I'm heaving same problem, I can't find what memory card it uses.... Whatever I buy it won't take and will only work with memory card that's 4-5 years old.

Mine has been working without a problem for almost a year, you may have a bad unit, try to use a different memory card if that doesn't work you may want to return it.

I just bought a sp 565 uz and try to install the memory of 2 gb micro sd into the adapter masd1 and not work for me, it seems to be formatted to use

Mine just arrived without the Adapters. I bought 2. Card works fine. Just a hit and miss on the adapter. I had adapters anyway so no problem.

When I take 1 of my micro sd cards out my psp is unable to read it and wantsmto format it, however I dont want to format it. So my guess is that it does work because it recognizes it but cant read it probably because ive put memory on both while inserted in the adapter.

I am NOT an expert. I don't think there are any parts in the adapter that can wear out. It looks to be just electrical connections. So you seem to have either a bad connection or a bad drive. I'm sure you've tried reconnecting and jiggling wires and using different USB ports. If none of that works, my best guess is your drive went bad. I wish I had more profound advice for you. Can you test the adapter with another drive to help isloate the problem? If the adapter works with another drive, then I would say your original drive is bad. Bad drives are way beyond what I can deal with.

This adaptor serves Sony computer users to allow their computers, which no SD card slots to access SD card via memory stick slot. It sounds like you want to make use of your memory stick in a non-memory stick computer. Sorry

I have never had the problem you have described. Try pulling out the memory card. You may have a bad card.

Does anyone else have problems getting the card in and out of the adapter? Mine got stuck in the adapter. needed to use tweezers to get it out. Is this my problem or the cards?

Try using a new HCSD card 4GB and up. I used that in mines and it works fine.

I have a Sony DSC-P150 and it got stuck in mine (the adapter), and broke the spring that allowed my older cards to "pop" in and out. Because of this, I had to remove the new DUO stick (shorter card) with tweezers to replace disks. VERY disappointing. Where can I get my old card? You just can't seem to find them anymore!
