Hello,

I've just bought NW-A805 and am quite bitterly disappointed that I have to use SonicStage since no other software works... But what's more, SonicStage refuses to transfer my music files! Not all of them, just the first (mostly) and the tenth (occasionally). Does anyone have the same problem?

If you want drag and drop, I suggest you swap it for the A816 (same physically, but different software)

You've bought the model that uses SonicStage and Atrac. Are you able to return it for the other model?

What error message s are you getting when you try and transfer?

I would swap it, but A816 is not for sale here :S I'm not sure about the return... I'm not getting any error message, it just says that it failed transfering.

Anyway, I tried to restore my PC to a state it was yesterday and reinstalled everything... and it works or looks like it works, so I hope the problem is gone.

After 5 minutes: No, the problem is still there. It worked for two songs which I couldn't transfer before. It opens a window and says "Unable to transfer the track or tracks." and shows the tracks. The first in the folder :(

Can you be a bit clearer? Are you trying to transfer songs from the library to your player - or from the player to the library? And are all the songs on your physical hard drive?

Oh sorry, yes, I am transfering the songs from the library to the player.

And no, not all of the songs are on a hard drive but it is still the same.

But I found a way eventually -- I need to copy the song i can't transfer and another song somewhere else and then load them into sonicstage, then change the order so the song i can't transfer is not the first one. Then i transfer them and voila... it almost always works.

Funny how strange things work :)

That's a really long way to have to get round it. I know it can't transfer songs that aren't on your hard drive though. Even if they show as being in the library - if they've been deleted elsewhere, they won't transfer. Have you tried actually playing (through the computer) - any of the songs that couldn't be transferred? When I try to transfer something I've deleted from the hard drive (and forgotten to delete from SS) - I get a message to say 'cannot locate file for transfer'. I'm just trying to establish if any of this applies to what you're experiencing.
