Not converting to mp3

Just finished recording a track and producing it but when I try to convert it to mp3 it only converts some vocals -_- smh... HELP

Try mixing the track down to a single stereo track before making an MP3 copy of it.

  • Itunes 8 can not convert to mp3

    I just updated to itunes 8 and now I can not convert to mp3 anymore! The CREATE mp3 version is greyed out and I can not pick it. I have checked and the import mp3 option is checked in the settings.

    Howdy!
    also, it appears that Apple did not update the "iTunes Help" screens when they made iTunes 8 -- those screens still refer to the "advanced" tab in preferences, even though the importing functions are no longer located there:
    THEY READ as follows:
    *Choosing import settings*
    You can choose the encoding format and other settings that iTunes uses to import songs. Your choices affect the audio quality and size of the song file (the higher the quality, the larger the file size).
    To choose import options:
    Choose iTunes > Preferences and click Import Settings.
    ETC. Well, at least they didn't do an iMove-style "revamp" to iTunes.! 8)

  • Music will not convert to MP3- reads unknown error (3)

    Music will not convert to MP3- reads unknown

  • Wave not converting into MP3

    I have been sent a wave file that is 2:47 in length. When I convert it into MP3 format it only converts half of the file and it is 1:30 in length??  I have tried many time but I keep getting the same result.  Is it because the file is too big? 

    Hey Limnos: 
    I'm not sure if the WAV is mono or stereo.  While it did actually convert, the MP3 fades out at 1 min. 30 sec.  It is a song being mastered for a CD so I am figuring that the WAV is stereo.  There are 10 songs on the CD and all of the WAV files converted to MP3 with the exception of two. Both fade out in the middle of the song.  The bar indicates that this is the end of the song.  So, in fact it converts about half the song. The actual song is 2 min. 47 sec.  The sound technician says that some of the files are huge and perhaps they are just too big to convert. I'll be getting the actual audio master on Monday so we will test it on every media for corruption.   Very strange however as I have not had this problem before. 

  • WAV Not Converting to MP3?

    I've followed the help file directions to convert .wav files to mp3, but even though ITunes says it does this, when you check "Get Info" on the file is still listed as a .wav file. Is there any way to get these clips to truly convert?
    Thank you!

    They were placed in the ITunes folder in My Music
    When you convert a file within iTunes, it is added to the library.
    They are stored in iTunes music folder in the iTunes folder.

  • Itunes 10.7 convert to mp3

    Itunes 10.7 on my pc will not convert to mp3. When i select that option, it just converts to mpeg...all original files are mpeg?

    The "full" name for MP3 is MPEG Audio Layer 3. It is the audio component of the MPEG video compression scheme. Where are you seeing the files reported as MPEG? iTunes lists the "kind" of MP3 files as "MPEG audio file". Perhaps you are converting files that don't need converting since they are already in the target format.
    See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MP3 for background.

    Try running these songs through MP3 Validator to see if there any issues.
    If nothing else, convert them to another format such as AAC via iTunes using the instructions in this Apple support document.

  • Is QT Pro not able to convert to .mp3?

    The answer might be No. I have searched the web and also the discussion ... but to be sure now
    Is QT Pro not able to convert to .mp3?

    Oddly enough....uh, yeah. Has something to do with patent issues.
    QuickTime cannot export to MP3, but iTunes can...and iTunes can play any audio format that QuickTime can. So if it is just an audio file, that might be a workaround.

  • I can not get my songs converted to MP3 format.

    I have tried numerous times to burn a playlist to a cd but every time I try I get an error message saying the song is not in MP3 format. I keep converting them to MP3 format but the error message still comes up. I am soooo frustrated. I have been trying to burn these songs for months now. I've read all the responses regarding the same issue and all the advice given I have tried but the issue still remains. Please someone help me!!!!

    Once you convert the songs to MP3, you need to add the newly converted MP3 to a playlist then burn this playlist.
    When converting, iTunes actually makes a new file. It does not convert the original file to a new format.

  • Why are you not able to convert to mp3 anymore

    I have just made a drive playlist to burn onto cd for a very long drive.  Went to convert the songs to MP3, so it fits on one CD, but itunes no longer allows this, why is this?

    Edit > Preferences > General > Import Settings > Set to MP3 & desired bit rate.
    Select songs to convert to MP3, right-click, select Create MP3 version.
    Add songs to a playlist.
    Right-click playlist > Burn Playlist to Disc > MP3 CD.
    Or use the Data CD format and skip the conversion if your player is flexible.

  • Converting an MP3 to WAV -- How can I convert an MP3 to wav format, 16 bit

    How can I convert an MP3 to wav format, 16 bit, 44,1 khz? I like the program Switch which I know can convert MP3s, but how to I set it up for the specific settings that I need?

    Just import into a logic session. Then bounce at the specs you require. Logic or Waveburner, iTunes and even Quicktime I think can each do this easily.
    A question though. I am assuming you are converting an MP3 to 44.1/16 bit just so you can play the file in a consumer quality CD player?? IF so - that makes sense.
    But if you are doing this because you think it will improve the sound quality of your MP3, I will save you some time here. It won't improve the sound quality at all. It will just turn the MP3 into a larger audio file.
    44.1/16 bit resolution enables you to have a much better sounding file than MP3 formats, but not by going at it this way.
    No offense to you if you know all of this already. I am assuming that you may not know this - because if you did you would also likely know how to convert an audio file.

  • HT1349 I have a large Windows iTunes library (18k+ songs, 650+ movies, 2.4K TV shows) and since upgrading to iTunes 11 files are disappearing from my library. Some music files re-appear in the cloud which means I have to re-download and re-convert to MP3.

    iTunes 11 is rapidly becoming a disaster for me. I have a dedicated Windows 7 machine running iTunes to service 3 Apple TV's, 2iPhones, 2iPods, and an iPad. Itunes 11 is very sluggish with my large library and has now started 'losing' files to the cloud.  This means that music I purchased in 2005 is being removed from my library and subsequently seems to become available as a ne cloud download.  This may well be because I convert all ACC files to MP3 and delete the ACC (my ears are too old to care about the reduction in quality). Either way, it's detrsoying my playlists and means I have to re-download files.
    Does anyone know how to stop this?  I have no interest in the cloud (my library is too big and contains hundreds of ripped CD's and Vinyl records that can't be matched).
    Thanks

    Because back in the early days very few devices supported AAC so converting to MP3 allowed me to use iTunes and other devices (like a $1000 dollar MP3 player with a 3.5" hard disk drive that pre-dated iPods ) as well as my gen 1 and 2 iPods.  I can't hear the difference (I'm old...) so the files being smaller is still an advantage (even though I have 64Gb iPods and iPhones these days.  Anyway, the major issue is iTunes deleting the MP3's and messing up my playlists because the file it downloads just goes in the library - not the original playlists. The secondary issue is how do I know it's truly replacing all the files it deletes. It's just scary and I don't like it. 
    BTW, I'm not anti-cloud and in fact use iCloud extensively with my iPhones/Apple TV's for photo sharing/backups but iCloud is useless for media sharing. I have just over 2tb of media data shared on my iTunes server (and remotely accessible on my iPhone/iPad using WebDav to my home server).
    ...and none of my media is pirated. I have crates of vinyl, CD's,DVD's, and Blu-Rays along with thousands of iTunes store receipts!

  • About to back up iTunes to XHD. Have old version 10.6.3.  Have been afraid to update with 40GB of music. Been digitizing vinyl.  In this version, playlists export as m3u, which needs to be converted to MP3-Song by song???  Help?? What do I do first?  Coul

    About to back up iTunes to XHD. Have old version 10.6.3.  Have been afraid to update with 40GB of music. Been digitizing vinyl.  In this version, playlists export as m3u, which needs to be converted to MP3-Song by song??? Goal is to also be able to burn MP3 to flash drive and to XHD as usable data.
    Help?? What do I do first?  Could export as m3u-then figure it out later? Or will this data be unreadable junk in a new version of iTunes?
    Does new version 11.whatever., have a provision to make all into MP3? Obviously past applecare contract.
    Been looking at forums-not clear what to do.
    Is there a simple way to convert/export m3u as MP3 in the newest version of iTunes?  Am I asking the right questions???

  • Can't convert to MP3 with itunes music

    I have downloaded some music but I am not able to convert my purchased itunes songs to MP3 so that I can put it into a personal movie maker project that I am doing. When I try to convert the song, I get this message: "Amazing Grace" could not be converted because protected files cannot be converted to other formats. How can I get this into my Windows Movie Maker?

    Di5,
    The protected tracks sold in the iTunes Music Store are not mp3s, and under the terms of the ITMS license cannot be legally converted to mp3 format. iTunes does not provide a way to do the conversion, and if you are a rocket scientist and figure it out, you would not (as Paul correctly notes) be allowed to discuss it in this Forum.
    To get mp3s, you need to look elsewhere, such as (1) rip from CD (2) purchase from an online store that sells songs in mp3 format, such as audiolunchbox.com, or (3) purchase from an online store that allows format conversion. On the last item, puretracks.com states that "When Puretracks files are burned to a CD through Windows Media Player 9, these music CDs will be recognized and can be ripped by iTunes."
    Hope this helps.
