What is “MagicGate”?
“MagicGate” is a copyright protection technology for the “MG Memory Stick” media
and compliant products, such as your CLIE handheld. Authentication ensures that
protected content is transferred only between compliant devices and an “MG Memory
Stick” media, and that protected content is recorded and transferred in an encrypted
format to prevent unauthorized copying or playback.
Notes on use
To avoid damaging data, do not
• remove the “Memory Stick” media or unplug the AC power adaptor
during reading or writing of data.
• use the “Memory Stick” media in a location subject to static electricity or
electric noise.
TOC reading time depends on the number of songs
When you start Audio Player, the application starts reading the TOC
information including the song name, artist name and so on of the “Memory
Stick” media.
Depending on the number of songs stored in the “Memory Stick” media, it
may take a few seconds to do this. You cannot operate Audio Player while it
is reading the TOC information; this is not malfunction.
On formatting the “Memory Stick” media
The “Memory Stick” media is shipped with a FAT format as the standard
format.
To format the “Memory Stick” media, please use devices compatible with
the “Memory Stick” media. For details, refer to the Operating Instructions
manual.
Note
If you format your “Memory Stick” media using your computer, further operation
with your CLIE handheld is not guaranteed. Format the “Memory Stick” using the
CLIE handheld according to the procedures in the Operating Instructions manual.
