About Bit Rates  
In OpenMG Jukebox, the bit rate for recording an audio CD can be chosen from among  
132 kbps/105 kbps/66 kbps. The sound quality and available recording time after the  
conversion will be different depending on the selected bit rate. A Higher value makes  
the sound quality better, but the size of the recorded data file will be bigger thus  
shortening the total Check-Out time available on your CLIÉ handheld.  
Likewise, a lower value means lower sound quality, but lengthens the total Check-Out  
time available on your CLIÉ handheld.  
When you use an optional 128 MB MG Memory Stick media, you can record for  
approximately the following length of time:  
• When you record at 132 kbps: approx. 120 min.  
• When you record at 105 kbps: approx. 160 min.  
• When you record at 66 kbps: approx. 240 min.

the maximum level, your CLIÉ handheld can playback audio continuously  
for about 3 hours.  
• If you set the HOLD switch to HOLD, your CLIÉ handheld can playback  
audio continuously for about 11 hours.  
Since the battery power level falls rapidly during audio playback, the  
Battery Low warning appears earlier than with normal use. In this case, if

Notes on Memory Stick media  
What is Memory Stick media?  
Memory Stick media is a new compact, portable and versatile Integrated  
Circuit recording medium with a data capacity that exceeds that of a floppy  
disk. The Memory Stick media is specially designed for exchanging and  
sharing digital data among Memory Stick media compatible products.  
Because it is removable, a Memory Stick media can also be used for external  
data storage.  
Types of Memory Stick media  
There are two types of Memory Stick media:  
– MagicGate Memory Stick media (hereinafter referred to as MG Memory  
Stick) (color: white) that is equipped with “MagicGate” copyright  
protection technology.  
– Memory Stick media (color: purple) that is not equipped with  
“MagicGate” copyright protection technology.  
To play ATRAC 3 format audio files that are recorded or converted by  
OpenMG Jukebox software on your CLIÉ handheld, you have to use a  
MagicGate Memory Stick media. Be sure to use MG Memory Stick media  
with the  
logo.  
When you play MP3 format audio files, you can use the standard Memory  
Stick media.  
For playback of ATRAC 3 and/  
or MP3 format audio files  
For playback of MP3  
format audio files  
Note  
Your CLIÉ handheld supports Memory Stick media with a capacity of up to  
128 MB.

Notes on Memory Stick media  
What is MagicGate?  
“MagicGate” is a copyright protection technology for the MG Memory Stick media and  
compliant products, such as your CLIÉ 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, etc., of the Memory Stick  
media.  
Depending on the number of songs stored in the Memory Stick media, this  
may take a few seconds. 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 CLIÉ handheld is not guaranteed. Format the Memory Stick using the CLIÉ  
handheld according to the procedures in the Operating Instructions manual.

Notes on using RealJukebox for Sony  
Caution  
When you use an external CD-ROM drive (including  
docking-stations)  
While using RealJukebox for Sony software, do not connect/  
remove the external CD-ROM drive. If you do, serious  
malfunction may occur. If you want to connect/remove the CD-  
ROM drive, turn off your computer, then connect/remove the  
drive.  
• Do not start both OpenMG Jukebox and RealJukebox for Sony  
concurrently. If you start both software, audio files on your  
computer or Memory Stick media may be damaged and cannot be  
played.  
• With the RealJukebox for Sony software, you cannot move audio  
files that are compatible with the “Move Music” feature from  
Memory Stick media. Note that if you delete audio files that are  
compatible with the “Move Music” feature using RealJukebox for  
Sony software, these files are completely erased.  
When you want to use “Move Music” feature, use OpenMG  
Jukebox software. For more information of moving audio files, see  
“Moving music from a MagicGate Memory Stick to your computer”  
of “Using music files in an external device or media” in the online  
Help of OpenMG Jukebox.  
• With RealJukebox for Sony software, you can play audio files  
downloaded from the Electronic Music Distribution (EMD) service  
that support OpenMG but cannot transfer them to your CLIÉ  
handheld.  
If you want to transfer these files, use OpenMG Jukebox software.

Notes on using OpenMG Jukebox  
What is Check-In/Check-Out?  
After storing audio files on the hard disk of your computer, you can transfer  
them to a digital music player, such as the CLIÉ handheld, using OpenMG  
Jukebox.  
Transferring audio files to a digital music player from your computer is  
called “Check-Out.” Returning Checked-Out audio files to that computer is  
called “Check-In.”  
Check-In  
Check-Out  
You can Check-Out the same  
song up to three times at any  
one time.  
If you Check-In the song at  
least once, you can Check-Out  
the same song again.

Notes on using OpenMG Jukebox  
On copyright protection  
OpenMG technology* allows you to enjoy digital music while maintaining  
the copyrights of its holders. OpenMG Jukebox encrypts audio files in  
OpenMG format and stores them on the hard disk of your computer to  
prevent unauthorized distribution.  
* The copyright protection technology of your CLIÉ handheld conforms to SDMI  
(Secure Digital Music Initiative) specifications.  
Your CLIÉ handheld has some restrictions on recording and playback to  
protect copyrights. You can Check-In audio files only to the same computer  
from which they were Checked-Out. They cannot be copied or Checked-In  
to other computers. For details, see “Restrictions on copyright protection by  
OpenMG” on page 54.  
You can Check-In audio  
files only to the

another computer.  
You cannot Check-In audio files  
to any computer other than the  
computer used for Check-Out.  
Restrictions on audio content  
High quality digital audio content is widely available through music  
distribution services on the Internet. To protect the copyrights of its holders  
from unauthorized distribution, some audio content is distributed with  
certain restrictions on recording and playback. For example, the playback  
period or playback count for the data may be limited.

Notes on using OpenMG Jukebox  
Differences between the HotSync operation and the  
Check-In/Out procedure  
The Check-In (transferring digital audio files to your computer)/Out  
(transferring digital audio files to your CLIÉ handheld) procedure differs  
from the HotSync operation in several ways.  
When you perform the HotSync operation  
• Since the HotSync Manager of the Palm Desktop for CLIÉ software  
manages the operation, the computer recognizes your CLIÉ handheld as a  
Palm OS compatible handheld.  
• You can perform the HotSync operation even when your CLIÉ handheld  
is turned off.  
• The data transfer starts when you press the HotSync button on the cradle.  
When you perform the Check-In/Out procedure  
• Since the OpenMG Jukebox software manages the operation, the computer  
recognizes your CLIÉ handheld as a USB Mass storage device.  
• You cannot perform the Check-In/Out procedure if your CLIÉ handheld  
is turned off.  
• Pressing the HotSync button will stop the data transfer.
