I don't understand why they are read only but if you right click on the file name and choose properties on the context menu then at the bottom of the 'general' tab you can remove the check mark from the read only box.

What great options. Digitizing a lifetime of music, voice recordings, movies, etc sure is time consuming. But it's wonderful there are so many options out there. Raven- I had forgotten all about Heartland catalogue. It's been probably 20 years since I ordered from them. Those are some great gadgets. The one with lp too is a bit pricey - esp. since I have a cd recorder connected to my turntable. It's a lot less convenient than having it by the computer - but it works well. The one for just tapes looks good. Grandms'- I don't need the turntable portion, but your post made me think that with the right cables (do you happen to know what they are?) I should be able to hook up my old compact stereo/cassette player to my computer. My question about that has always been that I don't think i have an input into my sound card. Does that mean I have an integrated sound card (without its own input port). But there must be cables that could transfer from a stereo to a usb port. Heck - are there cables that go to a firewire port - or perhaps that's overkill for music files. What's Pyro? Did that come with turntable - or just a program you have? I assume Roxio cd creator could do that - burn a cd? how did you find Cakewalk easier than Audacity? I think I've heard good things about both. And Urlee and Jean love Audacity and find it easy. So I'd appreciate any other thoughts in deciding which software to use? Thanks. Lynn.

that is wonderful that you are willing to contribute for the assistance you received at LzD. The entire staff at LzD is exceptional and go the extra mile to help those in need. You can contact Corrine (or any of us there) by PM on LzD should you care to do so and thank her or you can start a thread in the Lounge area thanking the whole staff for help, believe me it is always appreciated to hear a thank you. Many times there are several of the team working behind the scenes to get the results you end up with. Corrine is on many many help forums on the internet and does it as a volunteer, she has been awarded the MVP many years now and again this year from Microsoft. She does have a great blog you can keep up with. Security Garden I am sure she could give you some ideas for donations which would help the security support community efforts if you told her you would like to give a little back. All of us in the support community want one thing over all and that is to pay it forward. If you were helped in some way try to pay that forward to someone else even if it is just now knowing where to send them for the help they need. glad to hear you have successfully cleaned your machine! Feel free to hang out with us at LzD in the lounge and play a game when you have time. R-C
