Here is a situation that Korg should fix!!!

I have done 4 backups of my styles....so far so good.....but there is a problem!!

When you have "Favorites protect" checked you CAN NOT save your data!!!!

My data were in the favorites tabs and I lost everything.....

From the manual...

"Note: Pa4X ORIENTAL also inclused a Factory and Favorite Protect checkbox. When selected, this option protects all the Factory data and the Favorite Styles from edit- ing."

It does not mention that if you want to SAVE your FAVORITES data you should turn off the protection!!!

I haven't find anything in the manual but even if there is a note there SHOULD be an alarm when you are going to save your data.

The manual wrote:

Hmmmm wonder why they did this? What is different with the OR that requires FAVORITES protection option????

I guess that normally, protected data is not saved.

When you do a Save All with favourites protected, is the item "Favorite Style" with its checkbox on the screen (usually top left) - this is the screen where you select exactly what you want to Save?
If it is there, then this really needs to be fixed and is a bug in my opinion - if it is not there then it is OK as it is not listed as being saved.

I am not sure I understood what to do.
I normally press Media > Save>All>Save to

I think Pete refers to Media > Save All page (see screen shot):

Thanks BR - that's what I meant - I was asking "if you have FAVORITES protected then does the "FAVORITES STYLE" appear on this screen.
If so it is definitely a bug that needs fixing but if not, then it is correct.
