ianspotting Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 Hello, new to this forum. Just a quick question. I want to transfer files from my minidisc to my computer, and it wont let me, It just gives me this message"The Selected tracks originated from another computer. Cannot transfer the selected tracks."I've just installed the new sonic stage, and i don't know if that has anything to do with it. If anyone could help me that would be super.cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROMBUSTERS Posted January 5, 2005 Report Share Posted January 5, 2005 if you did not record those tracks from the same computer you cannot transfer to rights to the song back to it. for example if the song came from your friends computer you're out of luck. Also if you down any reformatting or messing around big time with your computer it will not be recognized as the same PC and thus u cannot transfer yet again.

Sparky191 Posted January 5, 2005 Report Share Posted January 5, 2005 I'd assume that upgrading the SS version has confused it. You can just record it back in real time from the headphone socket on the MD back to the PC line in. Assuming you have a decent sound card. Not ideal but at least you'll have those tracks. If you have uploaded all your tracks onto a PC. Can you get the tracks off that PC to another one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianspotting Posted January 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 but the thing is it's not even on the other comptuer(I have two I work with). Maybe it is the upgrade from sonic stage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1kyle Posted January 8, 2005 Report Share Posted January 8, 2005 (edited) -well..."it's a sony !!! " ←There is a way round this --especially if you've got a recording program with your Sound Card (or in an emegency just use Windows Media recorder).1) Start SS and press PLAY (On the SS program --not the Minidisc machine)2) Set your computer recording app to use WAV as the recording input.3) Record as a WAV file.4) Now with WAV editor break up into appropriate tracks.To get this back on to say another Minidisc -- just burn the WAV file into a CD Image (if you've got Nero this is easy -- burn as an Image with Image recorder --you don't need to make a physical CD).Mount this image as a CD with Nero's DRIVE IMAGE (included with the NERO program). This poodle fakes the computer into thinking there's a real CD mounted.Now you can copy this to a new Minidisc with Simple Burner.Then This new minidisc can copy tracks to another computer or whatever (as can the Nero CD Image etc).Hope this helps a bit.I HATE SCMS and DRM. - especially copying YOUR OWN MUSIC.
