HI could any kind soul help me my Walkman will import any amount of commercial made CD's but when I try to import a CD-R into media go it does not recognise it and will not import into my walkman I have a laptop with no CD on it so I use an external Cd player in fact I have 3 of these,I have tried everything ,I purchased an audio CD with the play's of Charles Dickens on a CD-R and it will not import into my walkman could you please help thanks PS I have tried windows Media player and music centre and my CD+R will not import to any of these players
I also use an external drive to rip CDs onto hard drive, all the slots in my desktop PC already used for extra hard drives in RAID config. Never had such a problem as yours, maybe your CD-R are copy-protected? But I am confused as to what your setup is: CD Walkman means Discman? Or are you trying to record from PC onto cassette? For copy-protected CDs you need a standard CD-Rom, it was mentioned that they bypass any protection there might be. We have a few computer-literate folks here (not me I just hate them!), hopefully they will chip in... But you should be more specific about the software, CD drive, and also what exactly you are trying to accomplish: rip CD-R onto hard-drive or transfer CD-R onto cassette???
I'm not an expert but I know that certain types of burned CDs will not play in conventional CD players. Right now I use Verbatim CD-R 700MB discs and haven't had any issues with my older players. Make sure you're not not doing MP3s when you format the discs.
I am guessing too but assume your Walkman is an MD Walkman and you are trying to use the Sony software to import all of your Dickens CD's onto a single MD, something the HiMD Walkman recorders are very good at given over 40CD"s will fit onto one 1Gb MD in LP mode. That software however was released in 2004 so its 32 bit Windows XP only. I don't use it myself preferring to record in PCM lossless mode via the line port on my MZ-NH600 Walkman. However I have been told there is web based software with updates that work on 64 bit Windows 10 laptops that will do all of those importing and copying tasks needed. I have a boxed set of the BBC Lord of the Rings CD's, 13 discs I think, that I must drop onto a 1Gb MD now that I think about it. Cheers from a HiMD convert at S2G!
