Need an Ipod whiz

when I right click on it and go properties it says MPEG Layer 3 Audio which I assume is MP3

Yeah. Do you still have it in its original format (in WMP?). If so, try importing it to iTunes again, but converting it to the AAC format. You may have to do this in your preferences settings at the top. Try it again and let me know what happens.

when I installed the itunes today it converted all files to the itunes format. I mean the file still plays in WMP but how would I convert it from itunes format?

Go to Edit --> Preferences:



Click on the Importing tab:



Try importing it again and import using the AAC Encoder. I don't know if I'm addressing what you're asking!

[marcingo]

oh ok. I see. Yes I have tried that however I still get the same result.

What version of iTunes do you have? Try burning the audio file to CD and then importing it directly to iTunes again, from the CD.

I couldn't stand iTunes, and I'm still convinced that if it was Microsoft that made it, everyone else would hate on it.

Anyways, when I dumped iTunes, I started using Anapod Explorer. It's not free, but there is a free trial.
