I am about to upgrade hard drives and I was attempting to back up data to an SD card that I had used before flawlessly. The disks app said that it was read only, and when I put in a cat picture to test that, it didn't go in. I am a relatively new Linux user, so I do not know how to change the permissions. Can you help? I am using Ubuntu 14.10.

This may sound stupid, but is the card locked? There should be a little gray switch on the side of the card. This caused me many headaches myself.
This is what a lock looks like, and where to find it:
Sorry for the poor image, this was my camera SD card, and therefore the only one I had. (I had to use my webcam).
As you can see, the lock is in the unlocked position.
