Aalaap Posted July 15, 2007 Report Share Posted July 15, 2007 (edited) I did a bit of Googling and I found out that drag and drop in Vista doesn't work between an Administrator-level process and a normal-level process. Since you need to run VAIO music transfer in Administrator mode to get it working and Explorer runs as a normal process, you can't drag and drop a file from Explorer into VMT. Logically, running Explorer also as Administrator, however less secure, would work, but I tried that and it doesn't seem to make any difference at all.In all probability, this will never work. Sony isn't working on an update for VMT, and Microsoft isn't going to worry about a few old programs that don't work fine on Vista. I don't know how long I can go without using drag and drop. VMT was probably one of the only few reasons I haven't dumped my NW-HD1 for a common iPod these days. I guess you just can't fight the system. I'll have to get an iPod.- Aalaapwww.aalaap.com Edited July 15, 2007 by Aalaap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pomj Posted July 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 Yes, I also found the vista drag and drop issue. I hoped that someone had found a solution to that Anyway I quite like sonicstage and have no problems/issues whatsoever with it. That said I have a folder on the player where I have GYM and music move. That is a perfectly adequate solution but obvoiusly not any more because of vista...Aalaap, I don't understand your remark about drag and drop and iPod. The iPod also uses a properiate program for handling your music. You can not copy music from the player without special software. So it is the same situation with iPod as with sony. (just that the sony sound better ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like GYM+MusicMove in one app for the iPod. And it works fine on Vista - Aalaap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
