How do you convert itunes to mp3 format?

I need help to download in MP3 to a cell ohine.

If you are talking about store purchases, they are in protected AAC format ^ a format change can't be done directly. What you can do is burn your purchase to an audio CD, that audio CD will act like any CD that you buy in the store.

  • HT1364 How do you convert iTunes movie files so that you can watch them on Windows Media Player?

    Hello. For school, I am supposed to make a video mash-up from a movie. I bought the movie I needed, but now I can't open it in Windows Movie Maker to edit it.

    Oh well then, thanks anyways! I guess I'll have to find something else to do.
    Do you have any idea how people get movie clips for their videos on YouTube?

  • How do you convert MP4 to MP3 in Garage Band?

    I downloaded an MP4 and loaded it into GarageBand, but after I added a new track to accompany the MP4 track, GB will not record on the new track...?

    , but after I added a new track to accompany the MP4 track, GB will not record on the new track...?
    Thi should work. At least it does in my GB version '11. What is your version?
    Just to be sure - some basic things to check :
    Is your new track a software instrument track or a real instrument track? It the type of the track does not match the type of instrument you are using (software or real) you will not be able to record.
    Is the track ensabled for recording and the correct track selected?

  • How do you force itunes comments to ID3 tags in MP3 files?

    I have comments all throughout itunes. The mp3 files do not have those comments in the ID3 info.
    How do you force itunes comments to write out to ID3 tags in MP3 files?
    The folder and files all have write permission.

    Yeah, don't do that, you probably also degrade the sound quality... If you've confirmed it is something odd with multiple tags try this.
    Select a group of mp3 files (You might want to start with a smart playlist so you don't mess with any other format)
    Right-click and use Convert ID3 Tags > None (may need to repeat this step if multiple tags)
    Then right-click and use Convert ID3 Tags > v2.3 (v2.4 support still patchy from various accounts)
    Downside is that it will lose any embedded artwork, but it should preserve all other meta-data, both tag-based and stored within the library itself.
    In fact, if you use my CreateFolderArt script before and after updating the tags it should archive any artwork as a local Folder.jpg image for each album and then reinsert that image on the subsequent run... Check it out on a single album first. If it doesn't work as expected let me know and I'll tweak the script to achieve this end.

  • How can i copy the music files from itunes in mp3 format to my PC

    How can i copy the music files from itunes in mp3 format to my PC

    Dr. P,
    Song files are just files.  You can copy them the way you copy any other files, like photos or documents.
    If any of the files are not already in MP3 format, and you wish to create MP3 versions, then you can convert them using iTunes, by following this guide:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1550

    You'll need to adjust your import settings to mp3 first. For instructions, see the following document:

  • Can't convert my itunes to mp3 format for my LYRA MP3 player

    I purchashed a mp3 player for my son. We have approximately 177 itunes I have purchased in my library. I can not convert them to mp3 format so I can download on player. Dialog box reads "files are protected and format can not be changed". Please help. I have paid for these tunes and would hate to do so again.

    I'm not sure I completely follow what it is you are trying to do, but it strikes me you're making it more complicated than need be.
    iTunes imports files in the format set in your preferences.  If you want to import as other than mp3 then set the other format in your preferences.
    iTunes is also set by default to put a copy of tracks you add into your iTunes folder.  You can unset this in preferences (I have this unset) but most people don't because it kind of messes up file management.  You can also temporarily disable it for files you are dragging to iTunes by holding the option key.  If you use iTunes for converting it will add them to iTunes - that's the way it behaves. I often use non-iTunes applications such as Max or XLD for doing my conversions (you also get to use the LAME codec for mp3 which some consider better than iTunes).
    You can add a column to your lists display which is format, or just go by the file size or bit rate display columns.  While not definitive, I can usually depend upon files saying 128k bitrate or 3 MB in size to be mp3 (I have almost no AAC tracks) vs. AIFFwhich would have much higher bitrate and much bigger files.
    If you have mp3 files and want to put them on a flash drive, highlight the items you want to add (it could be a whole playlist) and drag this from the iTunes window to the flash drive in a Finder window.

  • How can I convert Itunes video albums tracks to ipod tracks

    How can I convert Itunes video albums tracks to ipod tracks?

    3pg is an odd format... That or I just never seen it before. :P
    iTunes just ***** at converting videos. So far all videos I tried converting with iTunes have resulted in the same error you got.
    You're better-off using 3rd party apps, and then copying to iTunes, and then copying to the iPod.
    Unfortunately I don't know of any conversion programs for Windows.
    If you by chance have a mac, this program works great: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/flv2itunes.html
    The mac version of Handbrake below works great, hopefully the Windows version does, too:
    http://handbrake.fr/?article=download
    When converting with handbrake, make sure to use the iPod preset for the out-put video.
    Hope this helps a little.

  • I am trying to copy songs to an sd card for a digital photo frame. I changed my setting in iTunes to mp3 format before I downloaded the song but it didn't work. What am I doing wrong? Any suggestions? I would be very grateful!

    I am trying to copy songs to an sd card for a digital photo frame. I changed my settings in iTunes to mp3 format before I downloaded them but it did not work. What am I doing wrong? When I play the sd card in my mac or on a lenovo laptop it works but not in the photo frame. I would be grateful for any ideas as to what I am doing wrong.

    Unfortunately you've discovered too late how important it is to maintain an up-to-date backup of your iTunes library (and all other data of value).  You could, before wiping the drive, have considered making use of a commercial data recovery service that could (albeit at considerable cost) have extracted your library from the hard disk, even if virus infected.
    In the absence of that option, you will need to restore the content of your library from its original sources:
    Depending on your location, you may be able to re-download any iTunes Store purchases that are still available on the Store
    Likewise, most digital purchases from Amazon (including auto-rip copies of purchased CDs) should be available from the Amazon Cloud and via the Amazon Music application - the same may be true of other commercial sources for digital downloads
    Content imported from your CDs will have to imported again
    The specific situation that you describe regarding the music imported from your friend's external HDD suggests that either the source is badly organized and/or originates from a source other than iTunes (other media players may use alternative tags for information like artist, title, album, etc. that are not wholly consistent with how iTunes handle these).  Without details of the issues you're seeing it is difficult to suggest a remedy other than going through the media album-by-album, track-by-track, and correcting the inconsistencies.
    In the absence of a backup or access to the original library data there is no option other than painstakingly recreating your library as described above.  As you do so, you'll now realize how important creating and maintaining backups are - in my case I have at all times three separate duplicates of my library, in two different locations, where none is ever more than a week old compared to the content of my master library.

    There is no option to do this from the iTunes Store. Either convert them to MP3 after downloading them, or use a non-Apple store such as Amazon's.
