How to Remove Write Protection for a Mini Micro SD Card

• Answer:

  The Mini Micro SD card is a removable portable memory card device commonly used as storage in MP3 players, digital cameras, mobile phones and many other electronic devices. The miniSD card is mostly confused with or mistaken for the microSD. A microSD card is another storage device that is smaller and may be utilized in a miniSD device with the use of an adapter. Removing write protection from a miniSD card solely depends on the card itself. A write-protection tab is located on the miniSD card holder. Each time the miniSD is inserted into your card holder or computer, the tab automatically slides to its write protection position. To prevent the card from sliding to the write-protection, use a few household items. Difficulty: Moderately Easy Things You'll Need Masking tape Instructions Remove the Mini Micro SD card from the electronic device. Push the card into the device. Pushing the card will cause it to pop out of the device. Grab the card with your thumb and index finger and release it from the slot. Locate the “Lock” switch on the card. The lock switch is typically a white or yellow tab or switch on the left side of the card. Place a piece of masking tape over the lock when the tab is in the unlocked position.
