Don't have an answer but some guesses.
Is the Olympus connected to the pc when you attempt to edit the files? Are
the files on the pc? Disconnect the Olympus and reboot before editing one
of the files.
It sounds like someting is trying to sync files but I don't know how that
could effect Gold Wave or Sound Forge 7.

Subject: Olypus DM550: Unknown Device error - unable to edit files
I wonder if anyone here has an answer, even more a solution to this?
I loned my Olypus DM550 out to someone to record some voice clips along
with a
dynamic microphone to improve recording quality.
The recordings play fine on the recorder itself, and on transfering the
file to my
PC the files played in Winamp. the problems began when I tried to edit
the files
in Sound Forge 7. the file will not play at all in SF7; a message pops
up
"unknown device". Editing is impossible too. I then loaded the files
into
Goldwave. No message but no ability to highlight the file to copy and
paste into
another program. Converting the file to .wav in Goldwave has made no
difference.
The Olypus recorder in question was set to .mp3 192kbs. The transfer was
via USB,
of course.
So, any ideas what gives here? It is perplexing to say the least. I did
copy the
file by kplaying it in Winamp and recording into Sound Forge, but just as
well the
recordings were very short. Would hate to have to do that with a long
recording,
not to mention degredation of sound quality.
Any answers or pointers very welcome.
Thanks.
Ray
