How to convert wma in iTunes for MAC to mp3

The iTunes support manual mysteriously indicates that iTunes for MAC can convert WMA files to other formats, but doesn't tell me how! How do I convert the WMA files to mp3? When I google, I keep getting links to other sites and I'm not sure how to pick a trusted site.
iTunes 11 for Mac: WMA
Windows Media Audio; a digital audio file format created by Microsoft. iTunes can convert WMA files to other formats.

Peabody, for me, Adapter is the ticket, and a free one at that. Quick, easy to use, nice interface and very flexible in terms of formats, destinations, etc. Also converts video. Been using it for a month and love it.

How do I get latest Itunes for Mac OS 10.4.11?

How do I get the latest version of itunes for an imac with an os 10.4.11?

You can get if from the link Klaus1 provided but note that iTunes 9.2.1 is several releases behind the current version and no longer provides access to the iTunes Store. For that you will need to upgrade your operating system to Leopard at least (if your computer will run it). Even then it is not clear if you can get access to the newest cloud features:

How to convert and replace itunes m4a playlist with mp3 playlist

In Itunes, I want to convert a playlist of 200 songs from m4a to mp4 but don't want to have to struggle with creating the new playlist (ie, making a list of the songs and finding them in the library and dragging them into the new replacement playlist) or deleting the old m4a songs from the library (finding them and deleting them either by hunting them down or identifying the m4a duplicates and deleting them).
I know I can convert them en masse within itunes but then I've got to hunt them down in the library to recreate the new playlist and delete the old m4as.
I can't seem to come up with a smooth way of doing that. I thought I could drag them from itunes to my desktop, or even to a flash drive, but when I drag them back into itunes they don't come back in as mp3s but remain m4as (I did set the preferences import settings to mp3 so I don't know why that aspect doesn't work for me).
Any suggestions for how to do this efficiently would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, and thanks again for your input. I will do whatever works. Conversion works fine to convert, but then I have to hunt down each of the 200 newly converted songs to recreate the playlist of mp3s, and then hunt down each of the old files in the library to delete them.
So I tried to figure out another way to do it. It occured to me that if I exported the songs and then re-imported them, then they would be imported as mp3s due to the preference setting in Itunes, but I can't make that happen (they come back in as m4a). If I could, I thought I could just import (drag them in) to a new playlist and then I could delete the old playlist - allthough the problem then would be that the old playlist songs would still be in the library, but I think I read where I could do something like option delete (from within the old playlist) to actually remove the files from the library. Then I wouldn't have to hunt for the old songs.
My ignorance is due to my not using the proper terminology. I just saw the suffix is mp3 so I figured people would know what I meant. Same for m4a which probably also has a more correct term than that.
Thanks for the reference to Doug's scripts - there's a lot of them there. If I can find a way to contact Doug, I will ask him if he has a script that will do it.

How to convert LabVIEW 2.2 for Mac to PC

Need to convert labview software from MAC to PC.
Moved files from mac to pc. No files with .vi extension. several resource.frk files in sub directories. Is there any instructions for conversion or is this not possible?

I've heard of people doing this before. It's been a couple of years but the process involved going from LV 2 to 3 on the MAC. Then from 3 MAC to 3 LV. Then use the LabVIEW converion kit. You may be able to bypass the 2 to 3 on MAC step.
From my understanding you can open LV 4 and onwards VIs with LV 6. Here's a Knowledgebase entry you might find useful:

Another KB entry discusses how to move files between the PC and MAC:

I know how to convert WMA to AAC/MP3 for Itunes

I'm not sure if someone else has figured this out or not, but I figured out how to convert WMA files to AAC or MP3 for Itunes. First open the file using Quicktime. I think you need the Flip4Mac program. I'm not sure and you also need Quicktime pro. Choose Save. Select standalone movie. Choose location. It will convert song to movie, then import all your movies you selected. Organize Itunes by "Kind". Select all of your new movies files. Choose Advanced and convert to your appropriate file type.
I looked for a while and couldn't find a good way to change wma to aac. This takes a little bit, but it works. What do you think? It works for me.

Or, as has been pointed out in numerous posts, you can use EasyWMA.

Wma conversion to use iTunes for Mac

Does anyone know of freeware I can download to comletely convert my wma music files to mp3 so that I can use it in iTunes for mac? ( Switched from PC to mac, now i'm just struggling with my wma files i transferred from my PC - tried the new Windows Media Player 11 on my PC, but it only converts if the Device it syncs with requires it, you cannot set it to convert all files to mp3...) So far i'm really really impressed with the Mac, but the fact that i have to now convert all my music files that are still wma to mp3 to use in iTunes is QUITE annoying...

Macs don't have the WMA codec used to read these files.
EasyWMA is only $10.
Or just use your Windows machine.
Open iTunes, set your iTunes prefs -> Advanced -> Importing to what you want and drag your WMA files to iTunes.
It will convert them (using the WMA codec in Windows) and put them in the iTunes folder.
Copy these files to the new computer and Add to iTunes.

Hi, Dave.
If you're using the BlackBerry browser, you can't configure anything to bypass the RIM servers. I believe you may do so by using the Opera browser, but I haven't tried it myself so cannot comment with authority.
I hope that clears up the issue for you.

How to hide book purchases in Itunes for Mac since books are now removed

The instructions posted over and over say to hide a book from family sharing you log into Itunes and select books.
iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support
Except Books are no longer in Itunes for Mac. They are in IBooks.
So how do you hide a book on a Yosemite Mac?

Open iBooks - go to the iBook Store - Purchased - Show All - put your cursor over the book and select the x - there will be a dialog to ask if you want to 'hide'.

Any help appreciated.

Interesting how this thread when put on an RSS feed now states that there were no articles posted re: iTunes for Mac; what's that called...spin control?

I know for a FACT that lots of people including myself were trying to figure out yesterday what's wrong with itunes 11.0.3. I see many, many unanswered questions re: iTunes for Mac updated to 11.0.3 w/subsequent problems. The bottom line must be... Cupertino: We have issued another lemon of an update and we don't have answers for our customers who don't like the taste of the kool-aid we're serving.

Actually, only yesterday has been whitewashed; you can click on RSS feed & access Monday... So I stand corrected. No Wait!
Cool, I solved my own question or did I? I see a Green Star indicating that I solved my question, (although I didn't) but I don't get any points?
Only people with points can get points.
What if you give a wrong answer? Why don't they subtract points?

29 of 34 playlists Disappeared in iTunes for Mac. Is there a way to restore them?

Yesterday I had all 34 of my playlists in iTunes for Mac and today I only have 5 total playlists. Does anyone know how to restore iTunes playlists? Is there a way, or do I have to recreate them? I am running the latest version of iTunes (10.4.1). Does anyone know where playlists are stored in the iTunes folder on a mac?
Thank you.

I think those contacts still in iphone database. So you can back up you iphone with itunes to get iphone database off your iphone. Then access the SQLite batabse.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
All data included with the backup is stored in a SQLite database format with the data within various folders not easily accessible.There are some 3rd party utilities that provide for extracting select data from an iPhone's backup and iphone database such as this one.

How to convert the outlook mail to mac?

I bought months ago a mac book pro and now a new ipad. Till today I have used the outlook for mac because I won't loose my mail history. The contacts are no problem to convert. But who can tell me how to convert all mails to the mac mail program. For the future I want to use the apple mail program for both devices to sync them wireless.
Hope my English can be understood.
gobi68

I tried a lot of tips in some forums but all fo them without the success they promis.
If you find the one and only way to convert, please let me know.
