Make sure theres nothing you need on the card then format it and see if that does anything.

i tried formatting...but it won't because it's write-protected. i even tried cleaning the card w/ alcohol...but it won't work

Can you put things onto it from your phone? I have heard of people reporting their mmc card said write protected and then finding out it was because there card reader was old. If it doesnt work on your phone either then it's maybe just faulty you could try returning it to the shop you bought it from or samsung.

I had the same problem with an SD Memory card. I could not delete anything on the card without getting the "this disk is write protected error."
Solution: I used a little piece of Scotch tape to hold the switch on the side of the adapter in place while I inserted the card into the reader. Works perfect now.

hope it helps
