  • How to convert to MP3 or ACC?

    I made a small song on garageband. now it is saved as .band
    but want it to be an mp3 or acc. how can i do this? i already tried taking it to itunes and when i try to convert it there, nothing happens. i also tried looking at it with quicktime but it wont let me convert.
    how can i do this?

    I would never suggest lossy re-encoding of already lossy encoded audio, this will kill it literally. There should be only one lossy encoding done at the final stage. So the best way for GB is to "Share to iTunes" and then convert to MP3 or AAC within iTunes or drag it to Finder and use any other free/commercial software you like.

  • Convert to MP3 from AAC

    how do I convert file in iTunes from AAC to MP3 for use elsewhere?

    Note that this method only works on unprotected AAC files, as might result from ripping a CD.
    If you have (unwisely) purchased any Protected AAC files from the iTunes Music Store, they cannot be converted. All you can do with them is use iTunes to burn them to an audio CD.

  • Convert to mp3

    So, I have recently been using the "convert to mp3" tool in iTunes, but sometimes there is a problem. I will try to change a whole album at a time, and some songs will, once converted, be shortened to 4:01. Even when the song is 6 minutes long or so, it will stop at 4:01. I can retry the conversion sometimes, and it will work perfectly, and other times it will ALWAYS cut it short. The reason I have been doing this was because it was the only solution to another problem I was having. New songs put in my library would play on my laptop, but not my ipod. If anyone can help with that, please tell me, but the conversion seemed to help. Until now :/
    I don't know why this is happening, because the songs are much longer than 4:01, but they just stop at the time with some of the conversions.

    Export (now under the "Share" menu) your song to iTunes.
    In the iTunes preferences (Advanced > Importing) select MP3 (at the bit rate of your choice, though MySpace may have file-size limits).
    Then, in iTunes, select the AIFF of the the song you exported from GB, and choose "Convert to MP3" from the pull-down or contextual menu.
    When uploading to MySpace, you'll have to drill down through your iTunes music folders to find the Artist>Album folder in which the MP3 is stored.
    Shouldn't be too hard -- I've slung a few of my GarageBand recordings onto a Myspace page.

  • HT1349 I have a large Windows iTunes library (18k+ songs, 650+ movies, 2.4K TV shows) and since upgrading to iTunes 11 files are disappearing from my library. Some music files re-appear in the cloud which means I have to re-download and re-convert to MP3.

    iTunes 11 is rapidly becoming a disaster for me. I have a dedicated Windows 7 machine running iTunes to service 3 Apple TV's, 2iPhones, 2iPods, and an iPad. Itunes 11 is very sluggish with my large library and has now started 'losing' files to the cloud.  This means that music I purchased in 2005 is being removed from my library and subsequently seems to become available as a ne cloud download.  This may well be because I convert all ACC files to MP3 and delete the ACC (my ears are too old to care about the reduction in quality). Either way, it's detrsoying my playlists and means I have to re-download files.
    Does anyone know how to stop this?  I have no interest in the cloud (my library is too big and contains hundreds of ripped CD's and Vinyl records that can't be matched).
    Thanks

    Because back in the early days very few devices supported AAC so converting to MP3 allowed me to use iTunes and other devices (like a $1000 dollar MP3 player with a 3.5" hard disk drive that pre-dated iPods ) as well as my gen 1 and 2 iPods.  I can't hear the difference (I'm old...) so the files being smaller is still an advantage (even though I have 64Gb iPods and iPhones these days.  Anyway, the major issue is iTunes deleting the MP3's and messing up my playlists because the file it downloads just goes in the library - not the original playlists. The secondary issue is how do I know it's truly replacing all the files it deletes. It's just scary and I don't like it. 
    BTW, I'm not anti-cloud and in fact use iCloud extensively with my iPhones/Apple TV's for photo sharing/backups but iCloud is useless for media sharing. I have just over 2tb of media data shared on my iTunes server (and remotely accessible on my iPhone/iPad using WebDav to my home server).
    ...and none of my media is pirated. I have crates of vinyl, CD's,DVD's, and Blu-Rays along with thousands of iTunes store receipts!

  • How Do i Change the itunes file from ACC to MP3 ?

    I tunes is kinda makin me mad at how it seems that i purchase music from them and then i can only play the music on my ipod and through itunes, i'd like to change the files from .acc to .mp3. Is there a way to do this? I just like using windows media player to play my music, i'd also like to have the album artwork and every thing transfer flawlessly into my windows media player insted of having to search for everything and rename it all. Thanks for any help thats given in advance.

    Tracks purchased from any legal download store carrying major-label content, including the iTunes Store, are copy-protected and so cannot be directly converted to any other format. You can, however, burn the tracks purchased from the iTunes Store out to an audio CD, at which point it will act just like any other normal audio CD.
    Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Discussions page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums, in the User Tips Library and in the Apple Knowledge Base before you post a question.

  • Ok...WMA ebook from the library converting to MP3...is it possible??

  • How can I convert m4p's or ACC files to MP3s so I can make a mp3 Disk?

    Trying to make a mp3 disk for my Bose Wave system with all my jazz tunes, figured it would be nice to have all the music on one disk instead of multiples. However, the files I have are not mp3 format. How can I make my Jazz playlist songs mp3 format so I can burn it to disk? I have a 20" imac G5 with the latest itunes.
    Thanks for your help!

    If they are Protected AAC's purchased from the iTunes Music Store it is against the Apple Licence to convert them, if you want help ask elsewhere. if they are AAC's imported onto your Mac using iTunes instead, then you can convert them using iTunes by going to preferences and the advanced tab, then choose the importing sub-tab and change the format to MP3 Encoder, then simply select the songs in your Jazz playlist you want to convert and Ctrl Click of them and choose the convert to MP3 option, you will then have MP3's you can put on an MP3 CD. - The only problem is the quality may be noticably worse. As you say you have a Bose Wave System which sounds quite good this may be a problem for you...
    The better solution (though unfortunately more expensive ) would be to buy an iPod of some sort and connect that up to the Bose Wave system, I know nothing about your stereo but you can buy an cable which plugs into the top of your ipod for less than £5 ($8-9) to connect up to your stereo either through the phono ports at the back or if it has a special MP3 player input you could connect the iPod up at the front. The iPod would also be able to play any protected AAC's you had downloaded from iTunes too.

    "If it's not too late delete itunes off your c
    drive and reinstallit on d"
    No need to uninstall iTunes from the
    main C: drive and install it to another drive. In
    fact, it is a bit safer to keep the iTunes
    Program installed on the same drive with the
    other programs.
    iTunes operates as a database of information for your
    music files. The actual music files are stored on
    your PC, not within iTunes. iTunes keeps absolute
    references of the music file location and other
    information in its database file. This allows iTunes
    to use music files from any location on the PC:
    different directories/folders on the main HD, another
    internal drive, and external drive or a network drive
    (or any combination of the above). Each song
    reference has a specific and hardcoded path so iTunes
    can find and play (or sync) it.
    Make sure you only change the location of the iTunes
    Music Folder, rather than the iTunes
    program. Move all the music files to the D: drive.
    I respectfully disagree with your claim. I've been running itunes on a dedicated music drive for over a year and had not one issue. iTunes can still allocate a file from any one of my computer's 5 hard drives. Keeping it where other programs or OS are installed makes no difference at all. By installing iTunes on the music drive, the iTunes music folder is automatically where she would want it.

  • I transferred my files from a G4 to a new macbook pro, but I can't access my old songs in itunes. I click on the mac tab to access mp3 and acc but it doesn't work. Any suggestions?

    I transferred my files from a G4 to a new macbook pro, but I can't access my old songs in itunes. I clicked on library in itunes and get the mac page to access mp3 and acc files but it doesn't work. Any suggestions?

    They maybe corrupt, try transferring again from the g4. If iTunes is giving you an error then you need to authorize your computer with the same iTunes account as previously. Also, you could try exporting your iTunes library via iTunes on the g4.

  • Convert Selection to MP3 (from AAC) freezes PC and forces soft re-boot

    Caused by another error in I Tunes. Since the latest upgrade, all CDs that I imported created AAC files rather than MP3 as I had previously selected. If you select an albums worth of tracks to convert to MP3, after a few tracks, the PC hangs (including mouse and Keyboard) and the only option is to hit the reset button.

    this has happened to me before. all u do when u try to burn in mp3 and some do burn. u know wat u do. select those that have not been converted and do them again. this is how i do mine. move the curser to point at which the conversion stopped, then press the shift key while trying to select the rest of the songs either up button or down, it should be down cus those that have not been converted will always be down. so press shift +down curser and until u get to the last song. right click the songs and press convert, it wil start burning again. and that is all.if u find problem let me know.

  • Stop Mp3 from converting to .mov

    How can i stop my mp3 from being to a .mov when I put it iWeb. Many people don't have Quick time on their PC and can't view QT files.
    Thanks!

    Thanks again for the information, but I am still having trouble making this work. I'm not super tech savvy, so I need a little more information. I put the HTLM code listed on this page http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Website-Music-Players/HTML5-Audio.html into an HTML widget on iWeb. Not sure what to do next, I then pasted my audio file in to the same widget box, but all I see is a play button in a black box that says, "loading". It never stops saying loading. I tried other things as well, but the MP3 file won't play. How do I get the HTML code to run my audio file? I have looked through out the links you gave me, but I'm not picking up on to make it work.
    Thanks,
    Pat
