KrazyIvan Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 (edited) SS 1.5 + a NetMD player (you don't specify which one) = no transfer capabilities from MD to PC. You need WinNetMD to do that. I think it is available in the download section.EDIT: Sorry, I just looked and it is not in the download section. The software is not free. I checked the only link I have to it and the page seems to be down. Anyone have a mirror? Edited December 26, 2005 by KrazyIvan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vixtro Posted December 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 my netMD is a Sony Walkman MZ-N510 Type-Si just got sonicstage 3.3 and it is saying the same thing as the older version that the music is from an original pc and it wont let me transfer it on my pc?

Only Hi-MD units can upload. You really need WinNetMD or you have to record realtime to your sound card in wav format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vixtro Posted December 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 i have been looking for WinNetMD but its really hard to find. every link i go to is broken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Low Volta Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 the latest version of Marcnet's HiMD-Renderer (just donate something if you use it though) offers the same stuff as WinNetMD and free stuff like audacity can let you capture the music as wellIIRC the pseudo-error "the music is not from the original pc" links back to the good old days of very strict DRM that would allow only three check-outs so you needed to check songs in before you could use them again... the songs actually needed to be on the PC for this to work so even if your PC would still be recognized as the originating one, you would still be lost...
