  1. Well..I would at least try uninstalling everything first [do it the way it's prescribed in the NetMD faq, registry deletions and all] and try a complete reinstallation. I bet if I was at your 'pad I could get it working after a little while..probably just some little discrepancy.

    i've gone it twice, but i guess it cant hurt is i will try that ...again... heck i am so desperate to get this working, i might call sony's evil tech support.

    maybe i will play the lotto win it, and get an new computer as to not have to deal with this...

    but is there anything else that might help anything at all?

  2. Did you have this problem with iceeedtea's build?

    i did everytime i tried to copy a song to MD it would say that i have run out of check outs.

    but then i got an Atrac/Mp3 CD which uses the same Sonic Stage Software, but this is giveing me a problem too.

    1- when i exit i have re import the library

    2- when try to copy to MD it says i am out of check outs (even on songs i just ripped from CD)

    3- when i try instead to make an atrac CD, it says that Sonic stage doesnt reconize MP3. LOL i think i am just oing to give up and get a good old fashioned basic CD player.

  3. Did you uninstall everything the way dr. iceeedtea prescribed?

    http://forums.minidisc.org/viewtopic.php?t=4112

    yep, or at least i think i did it right. :sad:

    i was able to get ss2 going but it said that i had the count was zero on all my music even songs i had never uploaded, so maybe i didnt do it right, and the real player just had the message that theres no room on the disc even on a blank disc... sad.gif... i am going to get the HI-MD when it comes out so the fact that netmd is not record is not the biggest deal in the world, but it would be nice to get it working....

  4. i have the very same problem with my mz-n5o5, i tried everything, i even upgraded to ss 2.0 but that made it WORSE because before it would spin a little before saying that now it looks like it doesnt even check the disc befor eleaving that message... sad.gif

  5. i am 23 now, i got my first NetMD in 2002 when i was 22 (i'll be 24 later this year). i didnt fall in love with it though till the end of last year when i really started doing more stuff iwth it.. smile.gif now i am :love: :love:

  6. if upload the misuc via line in or simple burner the tracks are unprotected and you can

    MENU>>EDIT>>T:Ers

    otherwise if you use openMG, Sonic Stage, RealOne or RealPlayer 10, you need the computer...

    ps. i havent tried but i am sure that if you unstall openMG on another computer you should be albe to delete tracks from other computer as well

  7. just install SonicStage and then remove OpenMG...the site that mushroom gave above is the full installation of SonicStage even though it says it's an update...

    thanx smile.gif

    i download the file, unzipped it but when i click on the setup.exe, it starts aup but then stops have way through saying it " An install support file 'c:windowsTEMP{[longsting of number and letters here]}value.shl' could not be installed."

    and just stops and does nothing.

    so thats where i am stuck right now hmmm. :sad:

  8. By the way, will 2.0 be available for NetMD users too?

    do you mean sonic stage or the lastest real player?

    the last realplayer (realplayer 10) has been out for a while now, its MUCH better than real one, i have been using it instead ofOpenMG or realone for over a month and find that it works better. but thats all i can help you with.

    First to me, what matters is the sound not the format, because as always the original file format remains on your puter, so your music will always be accessable to you. It was not until yesternday that i heard any difference between LP2 and LP4 , am i have had my unit since nov 2002.so my ear is not the best and i wont go into sound differences.

    in conclusion, if versitility is NOT an issue iPod maybe for you. if it IS, however the minidisc is best.

    so i hope that helps.

  10. i believe so, i have never seen the unit, however, i did look on google images and saw that the unit has a button that reads "CANCEL/CHRG". so its likely that it works like all other sony md units. pop in the battery, turn the unit of and plug in the AC adapter then press the "canecel/chrg" button... and it should start charging.

  11. 1- in the future check and make sure a cd is not protected before you by it. too late now, but copyprotected cds are evil. :evil:

    2- some copy protected CD's let you burn the CD a number of times (usually 3), try this and then transfer from the burned copy.

    3- also i dont know if this CD uses that tech but one of the techs used to copy right CD's in the USA, you can override by holding down the "shift" key when you insert the CD. <<< your best bet!!!! :!:

    4- kazaa :oops:

    5- see if real player will let you transfer the music. :idea:

    6- POLITICAL ACTION, send it back to maker saying you cant listen to it on your minidisc. :shock:

    sorry thats the best i can offer i know its not much but yout best bet is the shift method.

  12. Thanx for the link!

    at least now i know that win 98 se will be supported , so now i am free to get excited. also it looks like thats only true with sonic stage so you may be able to do that with third party software and it looks like sony will be encourageing or at least not discouraging third party apps that support sonic stage 2 (real player 10??).

  13. there is only one aac "format" whats different is the copy protection. real player also uses aac but uses a different copy protection. its all one format, with different copy protection.

    anyway, yes real player 10 should let you do it.

  14. There ARE programs that will help you do that. just look thorough the old topics in the forum.

    i know there is at least one out there. i dont think the program is free. sony has gone through much trouble to stop this possiblity, but like they say where there is a will there is a way.

    your best the is to google it, until you find something. i will kept my eyes over for it. and post a link here when i find it again.
