How do you convert odm files to mp3 using itunes?

I am trying to download audio books from my public library and then install them on my  mp3 player. the file format is odm.
What is the process for doing this and what  software is required?

ODM files checked out from a library usually are copy-protected and cannot be converted, by iTunes or any other software. If so, they can only be played in a device that can run Overdrive's software. You'll need to consult with your library and possibly with Overdrive to learn if there are any options that would allow the audiobook to be played on a standard MP3 player.
Regards.

  • Trying to convert wav file to mp3 using itunes?

    Is there not an easier way to convert a wav file to an mp3.  I import my file or folder but it does not convert.  I have had to manually ask it to create an aac or aca out of each import.  shouldn't it convert audimatically when I import file or folder.  It did on the last version before this new update.  Please help.

    If Garageband doesn't work, try Audacity.

    As has been mentioned Adobe Reader cannot export PDF page content. Nor can it create PDF or manipulate PDF page content.
    What you can do is use one of Adobe's online subscription services. Two provide for PDF  to Word export.
    There's ExportPDF and PDF Pack.

  • Convert .aac files to .mp3 in itunes 11.0

    How do I convert files from .aac to .mp3?  I've changed my 'import as' settings to .mp3, and when I select a file, and click File->Create New File, all I can select is .aac format.
    Thanks.

    Janice.
    You can convert AAC files to MP3 by using the Advanced > Convert menu. However, you must first go to the Preferences > Advanced menu and change "Import Using AAC Encoder" to "Import using MP3 Encoder". This setting is used for both importing and converting. When you are finished converting, change the Preferences setting back to the encoder you prefer for importing.
    You can burn an MP3 CD if your CD player can play that format. You can fit a lot more songs on an MP3 CD than an Audio CD, but not all CD players can play an MP3 CD. Just go to iTunes > Preferences > Advanced >Burning and select the type CD you want. Note that songs must first be converted to MP3 format to burn to an MP3 CD. If your songs are in AAC format, iTunes converts them on the fly to AIFF when burning an Audio CD, but cannot burn them to an MP3 CD unless you convert them to MP3 files first.
    Hope this helps.

  • Convert AAC files to MP3 in iTunes?

    On my Mac, I can download from the internet in either MP3
    or AAC. I can also change MP3 files to AAC. But, can I
    change AAC files to MP3? I'm sure Apple had me do this one
    time to override some iTunes error, but I can't seem to do
    it now. I used this MP3 format for a long time so a lot of
    my downloaded songs are in this format. Now I'd like to
    change them back to AAC because it says I can't make a CD
    from MP3 files. Can I change the format or is there some
    way I can make a CD with MP3 files? I think I did it before
    on my old computer....I MUST have done it before because so
    many songs are in MP3 but it says I can't do it on the new
    mac.

  • How do you convert .AVI files for using in iMovie without losing the original clip time and date

    Hi everyone! does anyone know how to convert .AVI files for using in iMovie without losing the original clip time and date? Handbrake, MPEG Streamclip and Evon all replace the original timecode with the date of modification. This is very frustrating when you are trying to keep the chronology right. I know that if you upload the files to iMovie from one device the chronology isn't a problem, but I'm adding video files from a couple of iPhones and a couple of camcorders. any help much appeciated.

  • How do you convert aiff files to aac and keep them organized in new folders

    I have spent several hours trying to figure out how to convert my thousands of aiff files to aac files.  I want to keept the originals and have the new aac files created and then stored in a file system identical but separate to the one that stores the aiff files.  Will itunes do this or is there another program that will?
    Thanks,
    Jeremy

    You can override iTunes' preferences setting to keep your music organized, but then it is off for everything you do.  If you have this preference set then iTunes keeps your music organized the way it wants to.
    I suppose another way would be to use a third party converter such as Max or XLD to convert the files to AAC separately. I then believe if you drag the files to iTunes while holding down the option key (not 100% sure if that's the key combination) it will not copy them to the iTunes folder but leave them where you have them.  If you have iTunes set to organize your music and do the conversion inside of iTunes it will want to have its way.

  • How do you convert a file from .mov to .avi in quicktime pro

    I'm using a kodak Z50 digital camera that records video files as .mov files. I was told I could convert the files to .avi files using quicktime pro, but I can't figure out how to do it. Anyone know?

    I am assuming you already are able to open the movie
    in QT Player. Use Export in the File menu, choose
    Movie to Avi in the drop-down Export Menu and then
    click on Options to choose one of the pre-loaded avi
    codecs for the compression. You may also want to
    search for and install one of the newer codecs, such
    as 3ivx or divx since the preinstalled codecs are all
    rather old.

  • How do you convert managed files to referenced files?

    I have exported all the files that I mistakenly saved to my aperture library.
    since I've exported them by year and month I can easily incorporate them into my referenced files on various external hard drives.
    but how do I now actually get the managed files in the aperture library out of the aperture library? (I am trying to make the aperture file smaller so that it can more easily stay on my laptop).
    and is there a way to get rid of the managed files without having to reimport all the files and reimport all the metadata …

    As I understand it:
    You had a bunch of original image files and imported them into AP using managed.
    At this point the original files are totally separate from AP, since AP has copies of the originals in its library file (a package). If you relocate, AP will not put the files back where they were, especially since you have moved some files around in the database.
    If you haven't done much editing to the masters, consider creating a new library and a new import. Otherwise, try relocating a small amount of your projects to see how AP sets up the folders on the disk.
    But AP will not automatically write the masters back to where the originals were - the relocate process involves you indicating where the files will go. As I recall, you have to choose a folder structure from several choices and these may not parallel the originals. Plus, as I said above, since you have moved files around the database, you will definitely not get the same layout as the originals.

  • How do you convert Raw files into jpeg.

      I have never shot in Raw before and I have a huge project due tomorrow. I need help Asap. What is the easiest way to convert Raw files into jpeg, can Light Room convert the files. I have tried so many different ways and nothing seems to work.

    It depends on the sofware you have.  ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) hosted by Bridge or by Photoshop can convert ("open") raw files, as can Lightroom.
    However, not all camera models are supported by all versions of the software.  We need to know the make and exact model of the camera that generated the raw files to advice you further.
    We can also assist you with the conversion through ACR hosted by Photoshop.
    Olease note that there are dedicated forums for Lightroom, for Adobe Camera Raw and for Bridge.
    Here's the list of which cameras are supported by each version of ACR.  Note that later versions supporte all camera models supported in previous versions of ACR.
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407111.html
    Note that the latest version of ACR to run in CS4 is ACR 5.3;
    CS3 runs ACR 4.6;
    CS2 runs ACR 3.7;
    CS runs 2.4.

    And remember to never go into the iPhoto library directly and never make any changes to the structure or contents of the iPhoto library

    No.
    Why not simply export them from Audacity as MP3 to iTunes? You don't need any other converters...
