What to do if I cannot move a file on my Panasonic RR-US430?

  If you cannot move a file on your Panasonic Voice Recorder, it could be due to several reasons: You cannot move files to folders that already contain 99 files, so free up space in the folder. You cannot move files from folder A, B, C or S to the dictation folder, so move files to a different folder. You cannot move files from folder S unless the password matches, so enter the correct password.
