How to get mp3s from iTunes?

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, it just can't be this hard! My reason is that my kids have cheap mp3 players and they want some songs on them. All of my music is in iTunes. I upgraded to 8.0.2, paid to update my library (which I'll repeat others by saying this ***** to pay for songs I don't want to upgrade!), and made a new playlist those upgraded songs. I put in a new CD, had the playlist selected, hit burn, chose MP3 disk, and I get this error "none of the files can burned to an MP3 CD - Only files that are already in MP3 format may be burned to an MP3 CD.
So now what do I do? I've been struggling with this for months and thought I had my answer when iTunes was updated. TIA!

Jill,
To convert tracks to MP3s try this.
First open iTunes>Preferences, click the General tab and then click the Import Settings button and chose MP3 Encoder from the Import Using drop down menu. Now close preferences and select those tracks you wish to convert.
Choose Advanced>Create MP3 Version.
Once you have your MP3s created, you'll be able to create and MP3 CD.

    That is correct if there is a similar application made for the computer. It will not be sold through iTunes. Either you get it from the developer's website or look for it in the App Store or look for it at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads .

  • How to export MP3 from iTunes to sD card

    My car radio has an sD slot and can play MP3 files. How do I export from iTunes to an sD card in MP3 format?
    Thanks,
    John

    Insert the card into a card reader and connect it to your Mac. Open iTunes and when the card is mounted on the desk top highlight the songs you want and drag them from the iTunes to the card icon.
    If the songs in iTunes aren't in MP3 Format you'll need to convert them before dragging them to your card. You can use iTunes to convert any copy protection free songs in your library 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. If you are using iTunes 8 go to Edit>Preferences>General and click on Import Settings,, Change your Import format to MP3 Encoder for example and choose the Setting or "bit rate" you want. Go back to your library and highlight the songs you want to convert and go to the Advanced menu at the top of your iTunes window and choose "Create MP3 version": iTunes: How to convert a song to a different file format
    One exception to this are standard copy protected songs (if you haven't upgraded to iTunes Plus versions) purchased from the iTunes Music Store which can't be directly converted due to the DRM (Digital Rights Management) copy protection. However you can burn these to an Audio CD which will work like any regular CD.

    Hi scousewayne,
    Welcome to BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    You will need the BlackBerry Desktop Manager installed on your computer to synchronize music to your BlackBerry from your iTunes. If you are using Desktop Manager 6.0, Select Music and select either All Music or Random Music and select Sync.

  • How to get apps from itunes on computer to ipad

    Hi,
    I just downloaded an app from itunes on my computer, and when i went to drag it over to my ipad, because i manage my music etc manuelly, it wouldn't go there,
    is there anything i'm not doing or is it only possible to get them from itunes to ipad by syncing them?!

    You have to sync with your device, not drag it. Please read your user manual. You can download a copy from support.apple.com/manuals/.

  • How to get mp3s from the cd to my iPhone library in iTunes when I hook the phone up to my iMac

    Always before I hook the iphone up to the imac and open up itunes it recognized the phone and synced. Then you click on the phone and you had a choice of "on this phone" and it would show the folders and songs on the phone. Now, when I hook it up it, it will recognize and sync, but there is no "on this phone" choice and I do not know how to get songs or mp3's from my cd that is in the computer drive to my iphone in itunes. Where did this choice go? How do I get things from a disc to my phone?

    Your post is confusing to me because I don't understand the process you are describing.  Normally, you would import your CD music into iTunes, then sync your iPhone to iTunes, capturing the music on your iPhone.  The "On This Phone" tab would be irrelevant.
    Anyway, you can see "On This Phone" by pressing the iPhone icon toward the top of the iTunes window when the iPhone is plugged into iTunes.  "On This Phone" is a tab toward the rear (the "Summary" tab is at the front).

  • How to get Movies from iTunes to iPad (Not setup on computer)

    I have a movie in iTunes that I want to transfer to an iPad. 
    The iPad was not setup on my current machine (or not setup using a computer at all, I can't recall), so when I connect, it asks to restore from my last iPhone backup, or setup as new.  The iPad is only backed up on iCloud.
    Thoughts? 
    Thanks in advance.

    If you purchased the TV. shows from iTunes, they are compatible with the iPad and there is no reason why they shouldn't work. Did you try syncing them to the iPad from iTunes on your computer?
    This is explains how to sync movies to your device.

    In iTunes 11, in order to see the device in the left sidebar, go to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu at the top of the screen - if the sidebar isn't already visible.

  • I'm dumb, can't figure how to get playlist from itunes library into my itou

    Ok, I have looked and looked and did search. I want to copy a few playlists from my itunes library into my itouch. I was told they would transfer when I synched, they didn't. Drag and drop does not do the job. What am I missing? I am sure something very very simple. HELP. I do NOT want to do the playlist again in my itouch from scratch, as I have almost 1,000 songs to search through.
    There has got to be an easier way.

    "Synch" is the process whereby files get copied from the iTunes library to the iPod. If your playlists did not copy, what actually did happen when you synched?

  • I don't understand how to get audio from itunes into my project

    i am new to elements but have some basic understanding, but I can't get any audio into my project from itunes, just keep getting an error.

    BeeW
    Thanks for the follow up.
    On your computer hard drive, are you seeing .m4p or .m4a for this file?
    Please check out the following online article on iTune music conversion to .wav (especially when DMR is involved).
    http://www.aimersoft.com/itunes-drm/itunes-to-wav.html
    But, going with your latest
    the error is @the importer reported a generic error'
    when i select the file to import it shows .MTS, in the error message it shows .m4a
    all a bit confusing.
    The first line of the above is consisted with having to convert the iTunes music to another format, preferred .wav (DMR or other reasons)
    But there is something wrong with that second sentence. I have never seen iTunes music with an .mts file extension. Typically you see that with a video file with AVCHD compression (1080 variety). So, please take another look at the properties of the file that you are trying to import...video or audio? On the other hand, m4a is a MPEG 4 audio file.
    Could you do a screenshot of the error message where you are seeing ".m4a" in it?
    We will be watching for your follow up. Do not give up. We will figure this out.
    Thanks.

  • How to get Artwork from iTunes onto iPod

    Hi everybody.
    I have uploaded quite a few Artworks in my iTunes and now have it set at: "Automatically download missing album artwork"
    This works wonders, but...
    How can I get it on my iPod as well? It doesn't seem to sinq by itself and when connecting the iPod I can't do the same in the iPod Library?
    I have set my iPod on manual as I have way more songs on my iPod then on my comp.
    So, how can I get the arwork from my iTunes Library onto my iPod library?
    Many thanx
    (have Windows and an 30G Video iPod)

    If the artwork is assigned to the songs in your iTunes, then it's added to the iPod when you transfer those songs.
    If you connect the iPod then click on the 'music' tab, you will see the option to:
    "display album artwork on your iPod". Make sure that is enabled.

  • How to get songs from itunes to ipod shuffle

    I just seem to be having problems finding anything I download in itunes on my ipod shuffle. I am not techo savy at all!

    If your shuffle is 3rd or 4th (current) gen, here's how to use the automatic syncing approach, which is often more convenient than the manual method.  You probably need to set up (or update) the shuffle's Music tab in iTunes.
    Select the shuffle in iTunes.  There is a row of "tabs" (starting with Summary).  Click on Music there.  This is the Music tab, where you tell iTunes how to sync your shuffle.
    Check the box for Sync Music.  If your entire iTunes music library fits on the shuffle, you can choose to sync Entire music library (and skip to next paragraph).  Otherwise, choose to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres.  Below that, create a selection of songs to sync to the shuffle.  For example, if you want to keep it simple, you can create a new regular playlist in iTunes (call it "iPod Songs").  Put all songs you want on the shuffle on that playlist (including those recent downloads).  On the Music tab, find and checkmark that one playlist under Playlists.
    When you click Apply, the selection of songs on the Music tab syncs to the shuffle, replacing its existing content.  Going forward, any changes to your iTunes music library, related to the Music tab settings, sync automatically the next time you connect the shuffle, or when you click the Sync button.  So, if you have a playlist with your "iPod songs," just update that playlist (add and remove songs) whenever you want; iTunes syncs the same changes to the shuffle at the next opportunity.

  • I can't figure out how to get music from iTunes to the iPhone 4S.

    I've tried to sync music, but it says there are zero songs. This new set-up of iTunes is the dumbest thing I've ever seen, and doesn't have the side menu to the left where you could click the device that it used to. I have the computer authorized and all that. I even set up home sharing.

    Hi marjillantz,
    I'm sorry you're having trouble with your new computer. How frustrating! You've landed in the Acrobat.com forum, which isn't the right place to find the answer you need. But, I did find this article for you: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&docname=c00861462
