Itunes/Windows media player help please

*Bright-Idea*

Hi, total non techie so just asking for a bit of help please.

Is there a way to move music from my itunes library to my windows media player?

My 8 yr old has just got a disney mp3 (only compat with wmedia) for her birthday and wants to download some tunes tonight.

Sorry for being so thick but I really have no idea about this

Many thanks in advance x

Just click on the little arrow under "Library", click on Add To Library then add the folder the iTunes library is stored in.

Hi,

I'd love to help but can you just clear some areas up...

Where is this Disney MP3, is it downloaded from the itunes library or is it on a disk?

Also what are you actually trying to do, put the song from disk to ipod or am i completely misreading this?

Looking forward to your reply,

LilGurn

iTunes songs ar stored as AAC files which are not compatable with WMA.
I assume his MP3 player is only MP3/WMA compatable.

So you will need a programme to convert aac to mp3, maybe something like this, never tried it so can't say if its any good.

Providing you have updated your settings to import as MP3, in iTunes you won't have this issue.

All my iTunes library ripped from CD is MP3 and it can play from anywhere.

Edited to add: In iTunes Go to Edit > Preferences > Importing and set it to "Import using MP3 Encoder" rather than AAC of the other formats, then any new CDs you import (rip) will be MP3.

Or burn a cd from I tunes of the tracks you want, then rip from the cd to WMP, then you'll be able to sync them from WMP to the Disney MP3 player.

Long winded I know, but we have the same problem. Both my daughters got MP3 players for Xmas, one I pod and one Samung, so we frequently have this issue!

Then you can share the files with easy.

I can play my entire iTunes library with a variety of media players as it's all MP3...

i am assuming he is calling the mp3 player an MP3, is that right?

an mp3 is a file format, not the actualy player
