Micro SD card problem...SOLVED!

[enon8727]

Hey there, I wasn't real sure which forum would be best for this question, so I chose this one since it's a technical problem.
Anyway, I got a Corsair 1GB microSD card with an SD card adapter and I'm trying to put songs onto the card so I can listen to them on my phone. I got an mp3 wma converter, because the songs have to be in wma format (stupid, I know) and it will convert them fine but they won't show up on the card. So I tried to manually copy and paste or drag and drop them over and it says the card is write-protected. It's not the switch on the side of the adapter because I've checked that, and I've also tried another card, so it's probably not the card either. Anybody have any ideas?

Thanks

Pull the little white thing on the side of it to a different position

What?? If you mean the switch on the side of the SD card, I've already tried that.

Well you can't format because of the write protection..that's my problem anyway.

But the problem's fixed. Turned out it was indeed the card reader. Got a new one and everything's kosher, thanks for your help everyone!
