Putting itunes songs onto a mp3 player that isn't and ipod

Hi, I have no idea how to change the format of the songs i've downloaded in itunes so i can put them on my phone. My phones only accepts mp3, aac, m3u and mp4 files and isn't recognising the itunes files. Any ideas i would really appreciate...

Purchases from the iTunes music store have .m4p file extensions. So if your phone says it can accept those, they should work.
There is a forum especially for iTunes-enable phones,

You might have better luck over there. But I don't see any messages about Nokia phones - it's all Motorola-type phones like RAZR, SLVR, etc.

How do I put iTunes songs on my mp3 player, it sails the format from iTunes doesn't work

Trying to put iTunes songs on my mp3 player, but my mp3 player said they are not mp3s and won't play

You can create MP3 versions of the songs by following this guide:

Is it possible to put iTunes songs onto a non iTunes phone?

Hey, can someone help me, I have a Motorola V3i and it DOESNT have iTunes, and i was wondering if it was possible to put iTunes songs on it

All iTunes does is creates music files (assuming imported from a CD) in whatever format you picked, sticks them into a folder, and then provides a top level GUI to organize them.
So with that said, what format does your Motorola phone take? And do you have a way to put files onto the phone? If you can, then you simple need to take whatever iTune you want, make sure it is in the right format (MP3 for example) then transfer it to your phone however it is you put files onto it.
Now if you were hoping to have iTunes somehow talk to the phone and do the transfer, then I suspect the answer is no.

How can I get Itunes songs to my mp3 player (Sony Sonic Stage)?

I've browsed through the forums and it seems a lot of people want to export Sonic Stage files to Itunes!
I want the opposite. I just bought 100 songs from Itunes and can't get the m4a format changed in the Itunes advanced setting and I can't import the songs into my mp3 player (Sony Sonic Stage) because the files don't appear as part of my folder when searching (even though I'm looking for "all files").
I tried the Windows explorer to drag and drop from the Itunes folder to my mp3 player (it is flash based but loaded through the software SonicStage)and it didn't work.
I REALLY don't want to burn all of the new tracks to a CD to try to transfer them all back onto my mp3 player. Am I missing something really simple or is this a compatability flaw? I won't buy any more songs if it's the case but your assistance is GREATLY appreciated

Burning iTunes Library onto generic MP3 Player....How?

Not being able to afford the iPod 2nd Generation Nano, I purchased a 1st generation look-a-like MP3 player for my daughter. We purchase music and burn CDs using iTunes, however, I cannot figure out how to transfer the files to the MP3 player. Since it is not an authentic "iPOD" the Sync selection is not available. I have purchased tons of music through iTunes and feel I should be able to play it on any MP3 player I choose. Is there a way to do this? Please help!!!!

+I have purchased tons of music through iTunes and feel I should be able to play it on any MP3 player I choose.+
If the tracks you purchased are DRM-protected, then they are unusable on any non-Apple product (except for certain iTunes-enabled mobile phones).
+We purchase music and *burn CDs* using iTunes, however, I cannot figure out how to transfer the files to the MP3 player.+
Is it, ahem, possible to get songs from an *audio CD* to the player?
For future reference, since you plan to use your songs on both Apple and non-Apple products, please restrict your purchases to non-DRM tracks. That means either iTunes Plus, or MP3s from online stores such as amazon.com.

Am I able to easily convert a m4v video file purchased from itunes to a AMV file for a MP3 player that is not an ipod?

My wife an I each have iphones and ipods, however, my children have some non apple mp3 players. I've purchased some tv shows via the itunes store that are in the .m4v video format. The kids mp3 players only supports AMV video files. Is there a way to easily convert the videos I purchased into the AMV video format so that I can load them onto the kids mp3 players?

You can do this in iMovie 11.
Drag your DV clip or clips into a new iMovie project.
Then use the Share menu:
SHARE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME
In the dialog box choose Export: Sound to AIFF
You could do the same thing in MPEG Streamclip or Garageband, but using iMovie is the easiest.

Can't put my song in my MP3 player

I bought a song and realized the file (because of the DRM) cannot be playable unless I use I-tunes to load it. Yet, I don't see a way to get I-tunes to load my MP3 player. How do I do this?
BTW, my MP3 player acts like an removable drive.
I am sure the solution is something simple I am missing.
Please help.
Thank you.

Thank you both for your help. I was hoping Itunes was more like Musicmatch or WMP when it comes to recognizing my player and offering to write or "sync" directly to several MP3 players from my CDs, HD, or from their online store. I know I can copy other files by going to the Itunes folders, but the DRM (or purchased) files I cannot.
However, I am glad to see there is a workaround. Although, it is a lot of trouble for one song.
Thanks again.

HT4539 I just down loaded itones to my computer, then bought a bunch of music. How do I add the songs to my mp3 player. When I go to "file" and then devices the button that says sync isn't availlible to push, so I cant put the music on my mp3??? Help

itunes will only sync with an ios device.
On the other hand, if you have a usb cord for your mp3 player, and you know what FOLDER your itunes music is located in (and for me its located at C:\Users\YOUR NAME HERE\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media )
you can just select that folder and copy it to your mp3 player.
typically when you first plug in something like an mp3 player you get a windows alert asking if you want to view the contents of the device- say yes. copy your itunes folder to the music folder on your mp3 player.

HT1766 I want to put the songs from my MP3 onto my new phone but it just shows all my songs with an exclamation point. How do I convert my songs to work with my iTunes?

I want to put the songs from my mp3 onto my iPhone but everytime I go to do it it shows exclamation points next to my songs. How do I convert them to work with my iTunes and phone?

The "missing file" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then say no when asked to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions. I can provide a step by step guide if you give me the two paths.
In some cases iTunes may be able to repair itself if you go through the same steps and locate the lost track. It may then offer to attempt to automatically fix other broken links. Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use myFindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes.

HT1202 I want to put the songs onto an Ipad from my Itunes??? HELP

I want to put the songs onto my niece's Ipad from my Itunes... but when i plug the ipad into the computer it says I need to select one of the following 'set up as new ipad' or 'resore from this back up :rachels iphone' .. but i dont want to erase anything, i just want to transfer some songs over????

You can't sync with more than one iTunes library. You will have to enable Manually Manage Music and videos in the iTunes settings and then you can drag and drop the songs onto her iPad. This also requires that you turn of auto syncing in iTunes.
Without connecting the iPad launch iTunes and from the menu go to Edit>Preferences>Devices>Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically. Check that box. Click OK.
Now connect the iPad to the computer and you will have to launch iTunes on your own. Click on the iPad name under the devices heading. If you are using iTunes 11 go to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu and you should see her iPad under the devices heading. Go to the Summary Window on the righ and click on Manually Manage Music and Videos. Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes.
Now you should be able to drag and drop songs onto her iPad.

I have a Sansa mp3 player that is full of tunes I would like to transfer to itunes. I've read other forums, but they are a bit old. Is there a new way I can do this?

You will need to consult the documentation for the Sansa to learn how to get the tracks off of the player onto your computer. Once they're on the computer, either drag the tracks into the iTunes window or use the Add to Library command under the File menu.

Mp3 player that can slow down/speed up songs?

Hi there!
Is there an mp3 player that allows me to change the speed of the songs? I know that audacity can do this, but I need an on-the-fly solution, I don't want to alter the files on disk.
Any suggestions will be appreciated!
Best wishes,
Rufus

From the mplayer2 manpage
scaletempo[=option1:option2:...]
Scales audio tempo without altering pitch, optionally synced to playback speed (default).
speed=<tempo|pitch|both|none>
Set response to speed change.
tempo
Scale tempo in sync with speed (default).
pitch
Reverses effect of filter. Scales pitch without altering tempo. Add '[ speed_mult
0.9438743126816935' and '] speed_mult 1.059463094352953' to your input.conf to step by
musical semi-tones. WARNING: Loses sync with video.
both Scale both tempo and pitch.
none Ignore speed changes.
If you scale tempo
mplayer -af scaletempo=speed=tempo
(it has the same effect as the example in my previous post)
the pitch remains constant, but the song plays faster / slower.
If you scale pitch
mplayer -af scaletempo=speed=pitch
the song will play at the same speed (will have the same duration) but you can change the pitch.
