how can I unlock my olympus digital phone model number stylus-7010?

my phone was working fine until my 3 year old got a hold to it. Somehow she locked it. It will let me do everything until I put in the mem. card, when you turn on the phone it write protect. It shows the phone is locked, how can I fix it. We are in NY and really want to get some photos of the family.

    Check the memory card.

    There's a little slider on one edge...slide it to wherever it isn't now.

    And clean the contacts on it, too. Anything sticky (and three year olds are always sticky) in your camera can cause major problems.

    Edit ************************************

    The manual says you need to use a computer to cancel the write protect (page 51, link below).

    Perhaps for now you should buy a new card and sort out the other one when you get home.
