Downloading files in mp3 format

I am a novice at this. I have an mp3 player, but not an ipod. Can I download files from the itunes store in mp3 format so that I can play them on my mp3 player?
I downloaded one file from the itunes store. However, It won't work in the format that it is in. Please help. I really want to buy music but I need it in the format that i require.

Sorry, songs downloaded from the iTunes store are available in Protected AAC format only, which means that they are only playable on your PC and iPods. Another alternative would be to burn the downloaded song to a CD and then re-rip it as an MP3. You'd lose some quality, but at least it would be playable on your player.

  • Trouble converting downloaded m4a files to mp3 format

    This has never happened to me before. I downloaded a full album and 3 of the 13 songs get an error saying "the file format is not valid" when I try to convert the files to mp3 format. How do I go about fixing this?

    +if I do that, it will create the MP3 files all in the same iTunes Music folder as the AAC files,+
    Yes, if the AACs are by artist/album
    +and worse, it will probably duplicate each song in the playlist.+
    No, the conversion process does not touch any playlists.
    +The only thing I can think of is to either (A) have a blowaway copy of iTunes on the Windows PC, copy all the AAC files to it, import them, and convert them, or (B) allow my real iTunes to duplicate them all, make the MP3 CDs, sort by create date or file type, and delete the MP3 duplicates from the library.+
    B sounds easier than A. You can also consider doing the conversions with a non-iTunes program such as Switch, which allows you to specify the destination folder for the new file.

  • Convert REM Files to MP3 Format?

    I have downloaded several songs via the Amazon MP3 application on my Blackberry Curve 9300.  Little did I know that the songs were downloaded as rem files and not mp3 format?  I cannot upload the files to my desktop or laptop computers nor my Kindle. 
    Amazon said since I downloaded most of the songs over 3 months ago, they cannot move them over to my Cloud Player.  How do I convert rem file to mp3 format?  I do not want to have to purchase these songs again.

    That process above won't work. Waste of time.
    Your files were downloaded as MP3 files, but you have content encryption placed on your Media Card, and then the REM extension is added to the filename, because you have protected those files.
    You must turn off the encryption first, and then you can copy the files and they will be usable.

    You are converting the WAV files to mp3 format before transferring them to the iPod?
    You're using iTunes to do this?
    Just for the record, the iPod will not play mp3 files below a bit rate of 32kbps nor will it play compressed WAV files.

  • I need to find a way to convert .WMA files to .MP3 format on Lion

    I need to find a way to convert .WMA files to .MP3 format; with Snow Leopard, I could do that using iTunes, but since upgrading to Lion, I can convert the files to a .mov format in Quick Time, but cannot move the file into iTunes in order to convert it to .MP3. If you can suggest a work-around or an app that will work with Lion, would be much appreciated.

    Haven't used it myself, but worth a look http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/27103/all2mp3

  • Converting UNPROTECTED Mp4 files to Mp3 format?

    I have some unprotected Mp4 files that I can't seem to convert to Mp3 format.
    The weird thing is, under Advanced, when I try to convert Protected Mp4 videos, there's an option that says "Convert to Mp3 format", but with my unprotected Mp3 files, there is no option for that. I have no idea what to do!
    Help? Is there any other way to do this?
    They aren't protected files so I'm not sure why there's a problem. I used to be able to do this in older versions of iTunes. What's going on?

    Any suggestions on where to start because im kind of lostJMF doesn't encode MP3s, so you're not going to be able to use it. There are a few JMF-additions you could download (Fobs4JMF or Freedom for Media in Java [FMJ]) if you so desire to go that route...
    My recommendation for you is to use JavaSound, because it will encode MP3s with some additional libraries and such. Here's some example code of how to encode an MP3 using JavaSound and a thing called Tritonus, but that's explained at the bottom of the example.
    [http://www.jsresources.org/examples/Mp3Encoder.html]
    If you need any further help with JavaSound, you'll need to go find the specific JavaSound forum to ask it.
    If you need any further help with Fobs4JMF or FMJ, you'll have to find a forum on their sites to ask your questions. 3rd party plugins aren't supported by these forums.

  • Converting Downloads to an MP3 format

    Hi,
    I use Creative MediaSource and MusicMatch Jukebox to manage my libraries but when I download from Itunes - the songs do not come down as an MP3 format and I cannot convert the files. Can anyone help with this issue.
    I do not have an Ipod but a Creatve Zen Touch.
    Thanks so much

    hello,
    songs downloaded with itunes can only by read with an ipod. to read them with a creative , you have to transfer itunes songs to an audio cd or an mp3 cd. (there is a function for that in itunes).
    then you'll be able to import songs from the cd with your creative organizer software.

  • Converting from Quicktime/Midi audio files to MP3 format

    Before I upgraded to Tiger, I could use itunes to convert into mp3 form all the Quicktime Midi files that my chorus director emailed to me. Then I burned them on to cds so that everybody in the chorus could play their part in their car on the way to work and learn it really well.
    Well, now when I go through the exact same steps that are on the website (go to preferences, go to advanced, change encoder to mp3, etc etc) and itunes says that it cannot convert the file to mp3 because of "unknown error (-50)."
    Any ideas on how to get around this other than trashing my Tiger and going back to Panther?

    I bought and downloaded quicktime Pro and used it to convert my MIDI files. First you have to find your MIDI file on your HD. Then drag it into QuickTime. Then "export" the file and in the export window select aiff as the format. Save it to your HD. Then drag the aiff file into iTunes and it will play in iTunes (6.0.4 is the version I'm using) It will also burn to a CD from within iTunes. If you only want to play the file from within iTunes, you can skip the QuickTime conversion, and simply drag and drop the MIDI file from your HD into iTunes - iTunes will play it but won't allow the file to be burnt to a CD.

  • How can I convert all of my iTunes files into mp3.format?

    These are songs that I downloaded from my cds, but I want to be able to put them back on my desktop in MP3 format to put on a non-itunes compatible portable music player. Thanks!

    Set iTunes Preferences Advanced Import to MP3
    Select all the tracks you're referring to
    CTRL-Click onto this selection - "Convert to MP3"
    After that you may want to delete the non-MP3 source files
