[LUG]Re: MicroSDXC problems

 

Some adapters have a little RO toggle in the side. Make sure you haven't accidentally flicked that (if there is one).

I have a MicroSDXC card SanDisk Ultra 128Gb and I have all my music on
it. I plug this card into a small cheap music player which in turn is
connected to a meaty Sony Blue Tooth speaker. Every now and then I get
more music and I plug the card via an adapter into my Linux Mint desk 21
top and load the new music.

However, this time Nemo file manager says I'm not allowed as the disk is
read only. When I go into properties and look at permissions I, George,
am the owner with read/write privileges but that the group, George, is
read only. Something has changed from about a month ago when I last
copied music to the card.

I have tried copying as root. I have tried to reformat the drive with
gparted but the disk refuses to change. I have tried changing
permissions but it won't.

Any suggestions before I buy a new Microsd card ?
