O.K., so I have downloaded SonicStage 4.0, but I am now chicken to try moving anything from my minidisk to my computer because I'm afraid that I'll lose stuff from the minidisk, which I absolutely can't afford to do (I'm a reporter, and this is sound I collected for a story). With 4.0, has the danger of that gone away? What can I do to make sure my audio doesn't get vaporized?

Actually, I've already used SoundForge to edit and save (as wav files) the sound I transferred from my HiMD, so I'm wondering if the SonicStage DRM issue applies. I guess before I do anything else, I could test the play/transfer thing by putting the sound onto a thumbstick and seeing if I can open and play it on another computer. Good to know that once I've established this, I should uninstall the old version of SonicStage before downloading the new. Thanks!

Forgive me for posting this again as a new topic, but I'm a little leery of downloading an updated version of SonicStage (I currently have 3.0, which came with my HiMD, but everyone seems to agree that it's fairly useless). Should I uninstall the old version first? Will downloading a new one do anything to previously transferred sound files, and/or risk mucking up the file transferring/CD burning functions on my computer?

Further to downloading an updated version of SonicStage: not wanting to destroy my sound files -- or my computer, for that matter -- and being a newbie, I'd like to know if it's necessary to uninstall the version of SonicStage that's in there now (3.0, I think) before I download, or whether I should just click and cross my fingers.

I'm importing my own recordings. I'm a reporter, and have just switched to HiMD so that I can import files directly. The files were only labeled with track numbers -- about 23 short files (some just a few seconds), and all of them arrived in the computer with nonsense numbers attached to them. I used the version of SonicStage that came with the minidisk, which was purchased in March 2006 (sorry, I'm at a different computer now, and don't know which version it was).

Hello -- I am new to this forum, and also new to the world of HiMD. Yesterday, when I used SonicStage to sucked a bunch of files from my MZ-RH910 into my computer, they arrived in completely mixed up order, with nonsense numbers for names. Is there some way to get the files to land in the computer in the order in which they were recorded, with numbers that vaguely resemble the track markings laid down on the minidisk? Thanks -- Biber
