I used the Help Button in My SonicStage Software , and I searched the problem , and noticed that Device/Media is write protected is for other Media DeVices. It said to look for the Write Protect switch on my Device .

ROMBUSTERS Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 also the write protection tab is on the minidisc itself and not the minidisc player/recorder unit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bananatree Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 there is a tab on the disc it's self, similar to the ones on floppy discs. Make sure it is fully exposed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROMBUSTERS Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 take the minidisc itself out of the unit (i.e. the 60/74/80min disc that you music is located on).On the very bototm of the disc (opposite the arrow pointing to the correct side to insert into the unit) is a small (usually) grey 'protection tab'. In order to be able to write information to the disc (i.e. transfer music or edit) the tab music be fully open (i.e. the entire tab showing). If the tab is pushed to one side (and you can see a little into the disc) then you are not able to record. Please see a MiniDisc FAQ for more information Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
