Or use a USB cable to transfer.

tried that already.. there is no box for me to uncheck.. and no general tab...Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Right click on the file and select Properties.
Select the General tab.
Make sure that the box "Read-only" is not ticked.
put a piece of tape over the switch on the sd card and it will work.Explaination:
Source:
An SD interface includes a tiny copper finger which the write-enabling tab of an inserted SD card depresses onto another copper contact thus closing the circuit which enables the writing to take place. I suspect that that tab inside your SD reader is broken, bent, or somehow inoperable.
