How do I convert an audio CD format album in my library into MP3

Here's my problem. I have two vehicles. The older vehicle only plays audio CDs and the newer vehicle will play MP3 songs. So I want to burn two CDs, an audio and an MP3.
I imported my original CDs into iTunes and kept them in the original format, not as MP3. I then burned an audio CD and it plays correctly. Now I want to burn an MP3 CD but got an error that iTunes cannot burn the MP3 CD as the original songs are not in MP3 format. I don't know how to convert these songs to MP3 and in all the help info I have read there is nothing about this.
I really don't want to delete these songs from the library and re-import them as MP3. that's a lot of music and time.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks, George

You can use iTunes to convert the songs from your CDs to another format. When you convert a song in iTunes it will be converted to the format that you have set to import your CDs in. Converting creates a second copy of the song in the format you have chosen which gives you the opportunity to either keep or delete the original. You can get details on these pages:

    Probably the easiest way to do this is to download a free media convertor. Most will be able to convert video into audio files.

    When you make a DNG that's like making another raw file, so you will need to convert the DNG file just like your original raw. Don't use the Save button in the raw converter. That's just a link to the DNG converter. Normally you would click Open instead and then save in the editor as a jpg or other image format of your choice.

    how do I convert an audio link into a wav file with my Imac?
    A PC user showed me to right click an audio link where it asked if it wanted to save the link as a Wav file?
    I saw this done in front of me. How do I do it with my Mac ?

    This is how to do it in itunes http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1550
    If I view the song in finder, all that i have to do is press command-i and it opens a window. In the section where you view the name and extension I took off the extension (.mp3 in my case) and replaced it with .wav

    Hi linda93790,
    If you uploaded your files to http://cloud.acrobat.com, simply click on one of the PDF files, then click 'ExportPDF' from along the top-bar in your browser.  This will automatically load that PDF into the ExportPDF system.  From there, you can configure any options you may need and convert the file to an .xlsx file.
    Please let us know if you have any questions!
    Thanks,

  • How do I convert qcp audio file (from cell phone) to mp3 file?

    I moved a recorded cell phone conversation from my phone to my computer. The file is 982498.qcp and iTunes, VLC, Quicktime, or Windows Media Player will not play it. iSoundFile is an application that can convert many different audio files to many other different audio file formats. It does not work with qcp files.
    How do I play this qcp file? Or, How do I convert this qcp file to mp3 or something playable?
    The phone manual says nothing about it (its an LG 8600).

    I've tried it 3 times. It says "Error while converting file." Thanks though, it looks like the perfect site for this function, just wish it worked.

  • How do you convert PAL audio to NTSC?

    I have converted a PAL video to NTSC but the audio was mixed separately and so it's still set at 25fps and hence becomes out of sync when I lay it against the video track.
    So how do I convert the separate audio.aiff files from 25fps to 30fps?
    Thx
    Kevin

    I think you are barking up the wrong tree...
    Let's say you have a 10 second clip of PAL material:
    10 seconds x 25 fps = 250 frames
    If properly converted to NTSC:
    10 seconds x 30 fps = 300 frames
    The only difference is the number of frames, NOT THE LENGTH OF THE CLIP! It is still 10 seconds long.
    10 seconds of audio x 44.1 kHz = 441 thousand samples
    or
    10 seconds of audio x 48 kHz = 480 thousand samples
    or
    10 seconds of audio at 22.05 kHz = 220.5 thousand samples
    The only difference is the number of samples. NOT THE LENGTH OF THE AUDIO. It is still 10 seconds long.
    If you have drift, then there is something wrong in your conversion. You can't take a 25 fps clip, tell it to play at 30 fps and expect it to be the same length. There are multi-thousand $$$ transcoders that do that job.
    HTH,

  • How can I convert an audio file (speech) into a text?

    Hello everybody!
      Can someone explain how I can convert a garageband file (voice speech) into a text? My Mac is a Mac OS X 10.5.8 version, so I don't have programs such as mountain Lion. I thought to use googlevoice. Is this option available? If yes, how can I use it?
    Thanks.

    Hello, I only find google voice available for Abdroid!?

  • How do I convert DVD to quicktime format?

    We shoot HS Football games on a Canon HD camera - they are edited down to about 10 minutes each and processed as DVD. I would like to upload the video to mediafire in QT.
    How do I convert? or what do I need?

    Handbreak is definitely the best way. It is free and they have lots of presets to choose from. The downside is the conversion usually takes realtime unless you have a powerhouse desktop powermac.

  • How do I convert my pc version of Photoshop Elements 5.0 into a mac version??

    I am original purchaser and owner of Photoshop elements 5.0, how can I convert it to a mac computer from my old pc?? Thanks

    You will need to buy elements 9 or 10, then install that in windows and make a full backup, then restore to the mac version, if you use organizer. If not, you will just need to get a newer version of PSE. PSE 6 through 10 works in lion. For mountain lion, I would go for 9 or 10.
    EDIT The boxed versions of PSE 9 and 10 come with the media to install on both platforms. The downloads don't, but you could install in windows as a trial and that would give you time to get your backup done and transferred.
