How do you convert/'create MP3 version' on iTunes 9.1.1?

Used to just be on the ctrl click menu but now nowhere to be seen. I browsed through the forums to see if this question had been asked but I apologise if I missed it.
Thanks for your help.

I'm having 'Create MP3 Version' issues with 9.1.1 (12) versus 9.1.1 (11). I have build 11 and my sister has build 12, and I have the 'Create MP3 Version' option in my Advanced menu, but she only has a 'Create AAC Version' option in her Advanced menu. Does anyone know why that is the case? Her goal is to gain the 'Create MP3 Version' and my goal is to keep that option when I upgrade to build 12 (I have some syncing issues with my first gen. iPod touch that I understand are resolved by build 12).
Thanks very much for any assistance!

  • How do you get an old version of iTunes that has CoverFlow?

    I unfortunately installed the new iTunes and hate it.
    How can I get the old version back with cover flow?

    First download a copy of the iTunes 10.7 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and supporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

  • How do you download an older version of iTunes?

    I recently purchased a new laptop, running on Windoes Vista 32bit home premium, and immediately downloaded iTunes onto it with no problems. Then there was a new version of iTunes - 9.0 and subsequently 9.0.1. When it came to installing the upgrade, I wasn't able to do it. The download would get so far, then just stop! No error messages or anything. I was advised to un-install the old version of iTunes and then install iTunes from the Apple website. This did not work and left me without iTunes at all. My question is, is there a way to download a version of iTunes before the 9.0 version? I would appreciate any help with this, as it is driving me mad!!!!!!
    BTW, I have tried everything possible on this link: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926
    Thanks again, in anticipation, for any help. xxx

  • How do you convert an MP3 file to play in iTunes.

    I followed the directions in the Technical Support Section and when I highlight the file and click on it, the advanced tab doesn't allow you to highlight the "convert" option since it only appears in light grey. Any suggestions?

    Ok. Are you sure that they are .mp3 files? In iTunes, highlight one of the offending files and Get Info. What does it say on the Summary tab next to format? Does it say MPEG-1, Layer 3? If yes, it's an .mp3 file. If not, what does it say. If it really is an mp3 file, opening it with Quicktime. What happens? If it's an mp3 file, it may have corrupted tag information. iTunes is rather sensitive to that. You can try going to the Advanced menu in iTunes and selecting Convert ID3 tags.... I'd choose version 2.4 and see if that helps.
    Best of luck.

  • How do you convert a .mp3 to .aiff now that there's no quicktime 7?

    I used to use quicktime 7 pro to convert all the songs in my "final cut" projects to .aiff and now that there is quicktime 10, it won't let me install quicktime 7 on my laptop. What is apples solution for letting us easily convert our song files now?

    QuickTime 7 has been moved to Applications > Utilities in Snow Leopard. Otherwise it should be an optional install on your install disc. You could also try MPEG Streamclip: http://www.squared5.com/

  • Can You Convert (on a Mac) Purchased ITunes to Mp3?

    I have a Sansa Clip, not an IPod. Do I have to go to a PC to access and convert the ITune purchases, or can I do it from a Macbook? Thank you.

    Look at how the file is decribed in the 'Kind' column. If it is a 'Purchased AAC' file you can convert it to MP3 in iTunes. If it is a 'Protected AAC' file you can't convert it to MP3 in anything.
    To convert a file in iTunes first go to Preferences>General: click 'Import settings' and choose MP3 encoder, choosing the setting you want.
    Then in your music library in iTunes, select the file(s) concerned and go to menu File>Create new Version>Create MP3 version (iTunes 11) or from the 'Advanced' menu choose 'Create MP3 version (earlier iTunes versions).
    A copy will be placed in the Library. You can drag this to the Desktop or a folder in the Finder, and then delete the copy in iTunes.

  • Is there any way to tell "Create MP3 Version" where to create the files other than in the same folder as the songs you want to create the mp3 versions of?

    I am trying to get MP3 versions of my non DRM protected songs onto a DVD so I can import them into my cars "Music Register".
    There is no easy way to do this that I can see in Itunes . I follow this process..
    Highlight the songs I want to copy in Itunes
    Select Create MP3 version from main menu
    Open up Finder Window showing the Itunes folder with the m4a and MP3 files newly created..
    Go Up a directory or 2 to get the Artist 'folder'
    copy that folder to my external drive
    Delete the MP3 songs from the Itunes folder (I dont want duplicates showing) obviously
    Delete the M4a songs from the external drive....
    I have about 5000 songs so doing this manually is clearly a complete pain.
    I dont think you can force it to create the mp3 files anywhere other than in the current folder in itunes unless someone tells me otherwise 
    More likely does anyone know of any other software to do this with less effort...
    I confess to not being an Itunes fan at all I admit but I like the Match functionality so I keep it otherwise I would cheerfully chuck it in the bin...
    Thanks in advance...

    It appears I have figured it out. You gotta go down to where it says Destination and tell Lightroom to Organize into One Folder.

  • How do you convert the audio from a mpeg4 video file to mp3?

    How do you convert the audio from a mpeg4 video file to mp3 format?

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

  • ITunes - Create MP3 Version (output destination?)

    Hi. I was wondering if anyone out there knew if it was possible to utilize iTunes to create MP3 versions of m4a files, but have them placed in a specific destination?
    What I am trying to accomplish and the problem I am having is, I have an MP3 player that only plays well with MP3 files when it comes to ID3 tags and album art. So far iTunes seems to be the only player that can convert a file to MP3 format while keeping all the ID3 tag information intact.
    The problem is that I have over 300 songs I need to convert to MP3, which I can easily do in iTunes, except for that when it creates the MP3 version, it is placing it in the individual artists folders. Meaning I would have to locate every file in order to drag them onto my player and then delete them when finished.
    Is there a way to have the newly created MP3 files output to a separate destination? Or maybe another program that can do this..??
    So far, Ive tried (smartcoverter & adobe encoder) will create an MP3 version, however, it removes the ID3 tag information which is even worse than having to locate each file individually. Any ideas or information would be appreciated. Thanks!

    No such option.  iTunes puts the newly created file where iTunes thinks it ought to be:  Music\Artist\Album
    Other conversion programs, such as Switch, do let you specify a destination folder, and it does keep the tag info.

    Not at all!  After the conversion, sort your library by Date Added, and the newly created versions will be in a row at the top.  Highlight them in iTunes and drag them where you want them.  You do not need to look for the individual folders!
    Try the above with one or two songs so you can get comfortable with how it works. 

  • Create mp3 version grayed out in iTunes

    Mac OSX 10.7.4
    Itunes version 10.7
    The "Create MP3 Version" button is grayed out and I can't select it.  I can't convert my AAC audio files as I could before.  I could do it before the most recent update.

    Nevermind.  You can't create an MP3 version at the same time you are importing a cd.  Duh!
