I need some assistance with a recently acquired mdp. I am running Windows 8.1 and I was unsuccessful on finding software that, I can use to transfer music. Sony's website only had updates for Windows xp. Any info would be awesome, Thanks.
Have you tried compatibility properties? https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/15078/windows-make-older-programs-compatible It didn't work for an older program I have but you might have some luck
Is the software you need Sonicstage ? That is what the early Sony MP3 players used to transfer Atrac files. If so there is an alternative which I have read about but haven't tried (so don't blame me if it is dodgy). https://sourceforge.net/projects/symphonic/ I also found this which may help you There are several similar videos. It is also worth reading the comments. Someone was saying this only works with 32 bit versions of Windows. Good luck.
@Antoni please let me know if you get success with recording with sonicstage. @Longman Thank you for the link/ info This issue of recording on minidisc is a big challenge for me and i hope to find the solution.
Sonicstage was no ablp help with later versions of Windows as you still need the drivers to connect the MD to pc.
