dleao Posted December 23, 2004 Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 Hi all, i got today the error READ ERR on my Sony Net MD MZ-N707 and i totally freaked... I recorded yesterday some live stuff and today the unit wouln't work. I've seen on the web, really a few cases like this (4 pages on Google Search)... so i didn't have much help. After reading the service manual, the user manual, and the 4 pages on web... (nothing indicated the error)... i saw a little piece of metal (??go figure??) on the reader, inside the unit. Like somthing detached or broke inside the walkman ad got stucked (by the magnet) on the reading. After removing it, the unit came back to work great again.

raintheory Posted December 23, 2004 Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 I have to say that after 2 years of tumbling out of my pockets/bags-being kicked-dropped down stairs-fallen in sink-left out in the rain-constantly being sat on, my N707 has never had that problem... After all of said occurences (and more) my N707's only issue is the cover occasionally doesn't open or close properly, and i sorta have to nudge it to the side for it to open/close. Still has all of the screws in the cover to boot! Glad to hear about this incident though, know now what to look for if I ever come across that one. :happy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dleao Posted December 23, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 Hey raintheory, glad to hear that you never had problems, 'couse i have this piece for less that 6 months... now i kinf of know that i made a good choice. By the way... what do you mean with MZ-N707 (Hacked) Net MD ??? Is there any improvements i can do to the recorder ?? Is this the ever lasting dream of hacking this piece to upload song from MD to PC ?? Can't wait to hear... Daniel Leão Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raintheory Posted December 23, 2004 Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 http://forums.minidisc.org/viewtopic.php?t=72 Unfortunately there is nothing to enable uploading to pc from the original netmd's .. Hence, the MZ-NH900 above the N707 in my sig. Just be careful and take your time doing the hack, and of course... at your own risk. read the thread and posts first.
