Origional:You can't. They are copy right protected by the company that owns the rights to that particular artist or song. there is no getting around it, belive me. I used to work for sony music. It is impossible.
Well since I corrected his part I'll put mine in now. I am personally looking for the same thing but have yet to find any answer that helps. I have found the answer that I can not change them from my computer, but if you have the cds for the music you can burn the music onto a computer. You just have to uncheck the box that says something along the lines of: "Protect songs", "Protect Music", "Protected". There should be a check box next to each song.
I have a WD My bookEssential externL Hard drive. I encountered this problem-I reset my ex hard-drive by removing the usb cable-now i CAN PLAY ALL THE CD'S THAT i RIPPED ONTO MY PC'S HARD DRIVE, THEN MOVED THEM ON TO MY EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE.
Try resetting your pc-That might work.
Sorry about all the CAPS. I'm getting used to a new keyboard.

I have the same problem have you yet found out the sollution?
maxilla fire-fox it is a web-sit that is protection the site from virus
open the file in an audio editing software and export it...
Flip the "Write Protect Switch" on the side of the card, - Format the card (avoids file ownership problems).
If you are talking about accessing the partition from Linux, the kernel file system driver does not allow writing to NTFS partitions. You can write to the partition in Linux if you install the NTFS-3G file system. This is the only form of "write-protection" that should be on your system.
To format write-protected media, you typically need to disable the write protection first. This can often be done by sliding a physical switch on the media (like an SD card) to the "unlocked" position. If there's no physical switch, you may need to use software tools or settings on your device to remove write protection. Once write protection is removed, you can format the media through your computer's file management system or disk utility.
You will not be able to remove the protection. It is embeded in the file itself. These protected files come from Windows Media Player, usually when ripping music from a CD. It gives the option to protect the content. What this means, is Microsoft makes a license for that file, once you download that license, you can listen to the music no problem. AND.. that license can only be downloaded ten (10) times total.. by anyone, then the files are garbage. You are better off downloading a new version of that song.
To remove write protection on a smartphone, first check if the device has a physical switch for write protection, which is rare. If not, ensure the device is unlocked and that you have the necessary permissions to modify files. For Android devices, you can try connecting the phone to a computer and adjusting the settings in the file management app or using third-party software to manage permissions. On iOS devices, restoring the device through iTunes or Finder may help remove write protection, but it will erase all data, so back up first.
Go to properties and untick them
Open Windows Explorer, find the document file, right-click the file, click Properties, and click on the Read Only checkbox to remove the existing X. Close 'er up and starting editing your document.
To remove write protection on a Sony Walkman NWZ-S544, first, ensure the device is not locked by checking the hold switch on the side; it should be in the "off" position. If the issue persists, connect the Walkman to a computer, navigate to the device in File Explorer, and try to remove any write protection settings in the properties. Additionally, ensure that the device's internal memory is not full, as this can sometimes cause similar problems. If these steps do not resolve the issue, consider resetting the device to factory settings.
If it's coming from a floppy you would first remove the clip on it. If it is not a floppy, or if you tried the previous step, then you should try removing the read-only attribute. In DOS, you would use the Attrib command, using -R and the filename as the parameters. In Windows, you go to the properties for that file and make sure it is not flagged as read-only. If it is, change it and select Apply or Ok. If the disk is not physically write-protected, and if the read-only flag is not set, then the file is likely in use. You can install a tiny file extension called Unlocker to allow you to delete files that are locked by the system because they are being used.
