Using SS3.3 with XP SP2 and MZNH1...

I have a dozen GB discs and numerous re-formatted old MD's filled with a wide variety of audio... i have just purchased a box of new blue discs and am really struggling to transfer any audio onto them using SS

error messages im getting...

'transfers are not allowed'

'device/media is full'

'cannot use this disc because it was initialized by another program...'

these messages come at different times, in different orders and with differnt types of files - there seems to be no consistency

is this a software or a hardware problem?

im seriously considering going and buying an ipod as my MZNH1 is useless to me unless i can tranfer audio files onto it

Try reformating the discs, both in sonicstage and from the unit itself. make sure windows explorer is not open as it may be causing a conflict.

thanx Matt, i had actually just done this (with the unit) when i read your post... i was actually getting somewhere to or so i thought and had managed to transfer 14 wav files and listen to them and everything! but all of a sudden the unit tells me its unable to open or play the files and i have to reformat it again... its behaviour like this that makes me think its the unit at fault and not the software :(

so i thought i was getting somewhere and managed to transfer approx 25 wav files (mp3 still would not work) or so i thought... SS suddenly stops and first says 'unable to transfer' then 'unable to find file to tranfer'

i then unplug the unit from the laptop and it tell me 'unable to read/play file' 'reformat disc :(

Have you tried the files one by one or in smaller groups?

thanx kurisu, ive been doing them one by one for a while since i realised not doing so caused problems!

the only way i can transfer my mp3s is to convert them to wav - problem solved i guess as no problems since i started this procedure... tis a pain in the arse though and they seem to take up more space
