music from iTunes in my movie maker

I am trying to add music to a slide show and cannot get music to work.  I can't figure out how to change it to a different format.

The following article may be worth... Would be to WAV
be a good choice for use in Movie Maker, if you use this
conversion method.

iTunes: how to convert a song to a different file format
http://support.Apple.com/kb/HT1550

Another method...

Convert music files to the WMA format and it
import into Movie Maker successfully.

There are many converters available on the net... the
the following link is an example:

(FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
Restore point before installing software or updates)

Format Factory (freeware)
http://www.videohelp.com/tools/Format_Factory
(the 'direct link' is faster)
(the file you want to download is: > FFSetup295.zip<>
(FWIW... installation..., you can uncheck
('all' boxes on the last screen)
(Windows XP / Vista / 7)

First... after the download and installation of Format
Factory... you can open the program and
left click on the toolbar, the "Option" button and
"Select an output folder to" / apply / OK.
(this is where you find your files after they)
are converted)

Drag and drop your music files on the main screen...

Select "while"WMA"/ OK...

Click on... Beginning... in the toolbar...

That should do it...

    Hi Bauer327,

    iTunes music is in AAC format, which is not compatible with Windows media player. You may have to convert the format AAC to MP3 and then try to add it to windows media player.

    ITunes music sometimes has DRM protection. You will need to remove the protection license, and then try with windows media player.

  • Could not import the music downloaded from iTunes for Windows Movie Maker.

    Could not import the music downloaded from iTunes for Windows Movie Maker.  He plays in Windows Live Movie Maker and plays on my computer.  Cannot find the codec. Tried the solution to this same question and in help.

    Hello
     
    Some audio and video file formats are not supported in Windows Movie Maker and cannot be imported. However, if you have a video or audio file that is not taken care of, you can use a non-Microsoft video editing software to convert the file into a format supported by Windows Movie Maker, and then import the video file or an audio resulting in Windows Movie Maker. Some files also require you to install a codec before you can use the files in Windows Movie Maker.
    Note: The use of third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  • I just got an iphone 5s and am unable to download music from itunes to my laptop to the phone

    I recently got an iphone 5s and cannot download my music from itunes on my mac pro on the phone book.  The error message indicates that the phone needs a newer version of itunes?

    Yes, the iPhone requires a newer version of iTunes on your Mac.

    Your profile says you're on OS X 10.5 (Leopard), which is now eight years old.  Is this correct?  If so, it's the source of your problem.

    The current version of the iOS (9.2.1) requires a recent version of iTunes (12.3.2).  iTunes 12.3 requires at least OS X 10.8.5.

    Then you have probably a whole bunch of OS X upgrade to make.  To see if it is still possible to bring your Mac to the current OS X (El Capitan), see:

  • Cannot transfer music from iTunes to the iPod nano.

    I can't transfer music from iTunes to my iPod. My laptop has Windows XP and my iPod nano is 6 years old. (I do not know what generation it is). the instructions say to click on "sources" to choose the IPod, but I can't find this option in iTunes.

    The latest version of iTunes can be different, so former instructions can be confusing.

    There are several ways to load songs on an iPod, including the auto sync and manual loading.  I will describe the method that automatically synchronizes the iPod to a playlist in your iTunes library.  First, you must create a new playlist in your iTunes library and add all the songs you want on the iPod playlist.  You can call iPod songs playlists (or whatever you want).  If you already have a "Favorites" playlist, you can use it.

    Then, select the iPod in iTunes (click on its button on the device on the horizontal bar) to show its settings screen in the iTunes window.  The side left (in the sidebar), under settings. Click on music.  Right, parameters of music on the iPod screen.

    NOTE: All the songs on the iPod that are not on your iTunes library (on the computer) will be lost.

    At the top, check the box to Sync music.  This enables automatic synchronization.  Below, choose the option to synchronize playlists selected, artists, album and genres.  Below, under playlists, search for and select (checkmark) playlists iPod songs you create earlier.  You can select the other items in these lists, if you wish.  When you click apply, iTunes syncs your selection to iPod.

    Go ahead, update of the songs on the iPod, update iPod songs playlist in your iTunes (add/remove songs).  The iPod has no need to be connected.  The next time that you connect the iPod (or click sync , if already connected), iTunes automatically updated the iPod with the same changes.  I use this method with my iPod nano, unless I have several playlists (not one) that I sync with my iPod.

  • You can save the music from itunes with the sound recorder?

    You can save the music from itunes with the sound recorder?

    The principle is simple in nature, although the tape recorder is not the best option available for you, even in free software for audio recording you can.

    If you want to use sound recorder, you will need to get a 1/8 inch male-male stero (cable basically a helmet with two male ends) and put one of your speakers into your microphone in the port (line in).

    Then open sound recorder and give it a shot. The recorded files will be in .wav format, so you need to get a freeware to convert to program them to .mp3 if necessary. Or use this:

    http://www.media-convert.com/

    You can also use Windows Media Encoder 9, which in my opinion is much better in features and maintaining the quality. It is freely accessible to the public.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=5691ba02-e496-465a-bba9-b2f1182cdf24&displaylang=en

    You use the same configuration that with tape recorder, get a stereo cable and speaker output connection > microphone.

  • How can I add music from songs purchased on itunes to my movie maker project

    I can't download music purchased on itunes store for my movie maker project.

    Eldemira,

    Windows Movie Maker can accept audio files in MP3 or AAC format.  Thus the newer files from the iTunes Store should work.  But if you bought before mid-2009 and iTunes files have not improved their, they are "protected" and cannot be used.
