Hi,
I just found a heap of Compact Flash cards (all different makes SanDisk, Simple, PQI etc .. there is even an IBM 340MB microdrive) that were being used in a MP3 player .. these are formatted in Fat16, and although i can view their contents with my Swift cardport and 10.2.8 iMac, they are coming up as locked discs so i cant erase or put new things on them. Anyone got an idea how i can unlock these cards ?

Some have small switches on them that lock them. Aside from that I can only think mounting them o a PC and erasing them in Windows might help?
