My N900 seems to have a problem with the memory....
I am unable to take photos or video, as i get the folling error;
'Memory not accessable. Unable to save content'
It is also the same for the browser, I cannot save photos etc, as I get the following error;
'Not allowed'
I tried installing a Micro SD card, so I could save to that and use the camera, but it is not showing up at all in the file manager, nor the camera options....
In Settings I have tried;
'Restore original settings'
'Clear device'
And I also tried reverting to a backup...all with no success.
All files I have on the memory arel still there, still accessable, and I have plenty space available....I just dont appear to be able to save anything new, from any source/using any app
Any suggestions?
If I cant get this fixed...its bye bye N900.
The filesystem probably has errors and has kicked in read-only mode because of this. This is often caused by improperly removing the N900 from mass storage mode when the PC isn't finished with the device, random shutoffs/crashes, etc.
Connect it to PC in mass storage mode, right click the N900, properties, tools, then error-checking. Only need the default "automatically fix file system errors" checked.
i got similar (if not the same) problem. check if the magnet under the kickstand is still there (it's tiny). mine was off, it was within warranty so nokia sent me another battery cover

whenever i tried to capture a picture it shows memory not accessible unable to save content, but following your above instruction the problem is fixed.
