Help with putting music onto DSI

Hi,

I have downloaded ITUNES and have created a playlist using some tracks from one of my CD's.
The file is already an 'AAC' file which I believe is the correct format to transfer onto my DSi.
But, I can't get the file to play?
I have created a 'music' file on the SDHC card and dragged over a couple of the tracks from ITUNES to the 'music' folder. I can see the name of the track on my DSi but nothing happens when I click it

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks

  • Hi You have come up against Digital Rights Manegement! This is apples way of copy protection! Stop you making ileagal copies. However .aac format cannot paly on anything other than ipods etc.
    Convert your cd's using anything other than itunes Use .mp3 or wma formats.
    Many CD burning progs such as nero have options to rip musuic from cd's in the right format.
  • Thanks, but I thought that the DSi could only use AAC format?

    Can I just use windows media player to convert & transfer to the DSi?
