Yeh. =]

Thing is kiddo's... My iPod is somewhere is in the country on vacation. =[ Now, I've been stuck with this old MP3 player from a few years ago, because I can't go a day or night without listening to music and destroying my ear drums. So, I decided to put some James Morrison on it and okay. I listened, it was okay, now I want to delete it because it got a tiny bit boring. So I plug it in. Okay. Select the songs I want to delete, and BANG ! It says something along the lines of... "Cannot delete song blah blah blah because the disk write is protected" and also... "remove the write protection or use another disk" ?

What the fuck, I thought to myself. Anyway, it didn't phaze me, I thought I know, I'll format the fucker and blow those songs to kingdom come. =] So I goes to re-format, and BAM. It' won't elt me re-format either because of the same stupid disk write protection.:eek: Still, it didn't phaze Super because he still had another trick up his sleeve. I clicked on the song and thought, I know, I'll file shred them into Oblivion... that'll teach em not to delete. Errrm, as you might of guessed, it didn't work either. Now Super is out of tricks and feels like a bunny rabbit left out to die. =[

So I suppose the question I've been getting at is: How the fuck does one get rid of the disk protection OR how do I format the MP3 player even with the protection?

HmMmMm... fastest finger first. The one with the right answer gets a free albino rhino, imported from Africa.

Hmm...a CD-RW or CD-R?

It sounds like you've either finalized your CD or you're using an CD-R.

Decoy I don't think it's a CD Player. How the hell did someone make it read-only? I do recall seeing on some electronic device, can't think of it now, but it had a little switch on the side where you can put it to an Unlock symbol or a Lock symbol, if you put it on lock, and plugged it into your computer, it would say read only. I can't think of what it was, maybe my old A-Trac Minidisk player,

There are 3 simple steps to overcome this problem:

1: Take MP3 Player
2: Throw MP3 Player at a wall
3: Buy a new one
