HOW CAN I GET RID OF THE LITTLE GOLD PADLOCKS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF MY TRACKS ?
WAS GOING ONE BY ONE DOING CTR+R AND THEN RIGHT CLICKING THE SONG GOING TO PROPERTIES THEN CLICKING ON TO ATTRILOUTES UNCHECK READ-ONLY THEN CLICKING ON THE ADVANCE TAB UN CHECK FILES IS READY FOR ARCHIVING....
IS THIS THE ONLY WAY TO DO THIS? PLEASE GIVE ME AN EASIER WAY TO DO THIS THANKS..!

HOPE TO HEAR SOME THING FROM SOME ONE SOON THANKS R3TRO....!

Hey R3TRO30,

You shouldn't have to do it track by track, you should be able to select all the tracks in one folder, right click and untick read only and apply. Also you can do this to an entire folders contents by right clicking the folder and unticking read only, when you hit apply it should give you the option to apply to all files and sub-folders.

Try doing this while Serato DJ Intro is closed, then when you reopen the software you should be able to write to each of your files and after you play each song the padlock should be removed as well.

Let me know if this helps!

Cheers, Sam
