Hey guy. I just brought a samsung galaxy tab4 8.0 tablet and got a strontium 32gb nitro 466x microsd card. I accessed the as card on my comp but can't copy any movies or music onto it as it says it's write protected. Can anyone suggest any solutions for me?

Do you have it in an SD card adapter? If so, have you accidentally got the write protect switch on the side of the adapter engaged?

Or try format the card in the tablet, and then put it back into your PC and copy the contents across

The card was on unlock. Tried formatting the card in the tablet then try copying the stuff over again and it worked. Thanks
