Hey guys, I'm relatively new to this forum and i have web reading for awhile but never posted. I just updated my HM700 with two Sandisk class10 SDHC cards, but when I connect my 700 to my MBP to upload the clips, it only reads the card as "read only". I don't currently own a card reader. What gives?I can't rename the card or delete any files off of it either.

Nobody has had a problem like this?

Hi Stephen.
You haven't slipped the lock slider on the side of the card by any chance have you?

I use a card reader for my HM700 cards, and always format cards in the camera itself, but my manual seems to suggest (in a note somewhere on page 118, I think) that if you connect to the camera using USB, the cards are read-only as far as the computer's concerned....

I hadn't read the post properly, Yes if connecting by USB cable you will be unable to write back to the card in the camera. I have a card reader from the pound shop (cost just £1). It reads the cards just as well as my Sandisc one.
