Well, finally heard back from sony. No luck. We have to re-record the whole thing. Thanks for trying to help. Here's hoping the next round is more successful. I've ordered new discs and will attempt to reformat the old one when it arrives and see if it is still usable. thanks!

Thanks all, A440, it's out of my hands. I sent it to Sony Media Services yesterday and have thusly crossed my fingers. I should know shortly after the first of the year. I'll let you know what develops, if anything. Happy Holidays!

no dice. I borrowed my colleagues MD and, while it did read the disc enough to get a track list loaded into Sonicstage, I couldn't transfer anything. I also cannot PLAY anything from this disc, making it impossible to play something back in realtime. Any ideas? When I try to play or edit anything directly on the MD recorder I get a "format disk error" message. There is hours of data on this disk and I don't know how I'm going to get it off of it. I suppose my next step may be to contact Sony directly. I'm guessing this could be a corrupt disc now? ugh.

Thanks to both of you. I have already tried unchecking the "convert to WAV" feature and it didn't do any good. I have Audacity on my laptop but no sound card, so I'll have to do this on my other machine. It's just going to take a really, really long time. In the meantime, I'm picking up a colleague's MD recorder tomorrow, which is newer, and will put in my disc to see if it's the unit itself. Hopefully it will upload. The tracks I'm trying to upload are only 3-5 minutes long each. We tracked each one as it was read, both to keep it organized from the start and to keep the uploads small. I'll come back tomorrow and let you know if the other MD worked. thanks!

I'm not sure if anyone will check this or not. I'm experiencing the same problem here and am wondering if anyone has found a fix. My wife recorded an audio book on my Sony MZ-NH900 and now we can't upload nearly 80% of it because of this problem. It took HOURS to do, and there's no way to get it into the computer to create the cds we need to. I'm running WXP and everything is up to date and virus free. Please help! By the way, I tried online chatting with Sony support and they told me to uninstall and reinstall Sonicstage, which I did. I also installed Sonicstage on a different and much newer computer and have the same problem. Any ideas? Thanks!
