P2 Card says "write-protected" but it's not.

[danparsons]

I am trying to upload some data back to my 8GB P2 card (footage created with Raylight/P2 Maker), but I am getting an error which says my card is write-protected.

When trying to delete the CONTENTS folder, this is the message I got:

I checked the back on the card (in fact I have tried this with both of my cards), but my tab is not set to write-protect.

This is the first time I have ever had a problem doing this. Could it be my new system?

Here's what I'm running:
Macbook Pro 2.4GHz
Windows XP Pro
Duel Systems Adapter

I have already updated the firmware on both of my cards and run P2 Simple Checker. Everything is up to date and checks out.

I would certainly appreciate any help I can get in making this work.

All the best,
Dan

What were the specs on your old system (I assumed it worked there).

Have you tried writing to the card through the USB 2 port and camera?
