Re: Not Mac Question, but.........
Posted by Jan on 5/16/08
What would any of us do if you didn't hang around these boards? You're far better than Applecare - thanks for the info. Now, here is my second question: On my Mac, I can download from the internet in either MP3 or AAC. I can also change MP3 files to AAC. But, can I change AAC files to MP3? I'm sure Apple had me do this one time to override some iTunes error, but I can't seem to do it now. I used this MP3 format for a long time so a lot of my downloaded songs are in this format. Now I'd like to change them back to AAC because it says I can't make a CD from MP3 files. Can I change the format or is there some way I can make a CD with MP3 files? I think I did it before on my old computer....I MUST have done it before because so many songs are in MP3 but it says I can't do it on the new mac.
