Posted by Jan on 5/16/08 This is the most mysterious thing ever. I have a music file that is AAC that I downloaded from iTunes. I want to change it to an MP3 file, but I have no option. When I go to preferences/advanced, the only option is "change to AAC." I can change an MP3 file to AAC but not the other way around. I can import a song by checking MP3, but once I have it downloaded, I can't change it. I know absolutely that I did this before (on my old computer) so I just don't understand it.
