When I try to save changes I have made I sometimes get this error on one or two files out of a whole album I have just copied. I don’t understand why most of the files save, but those few won’t. The whole album has just transferred with Goldwave in one process, so what is wrong with those couple files? I have tried transferring those files individually without success. I didn’t see anything to help in your suggested topics.
