transfer it into windows media movie maker to use it as backdrop music??

At the moment if I try and search for the file from movie maker it doesnt find it. Ive tried converting it to real time but it wont import that either.

Thanks

Strange, I tried a MP4-MP3 converter this morning, but still didn't work, I think you still need ruddy I-tunes on your pc. Please post what works for you. Thank you.

I digress and hijacked from original OP, sorry.

I only tried it because I wanted to play an MP4 podcast on MP3 player (which is not an ipod and don't have itunes either). I think MP4 is solely an Apple application, so I am a bit stuck.

Yes, I am stuck for a Xmas name too.

Still trying to figure this out.

The free downloads only do part of the song.

Ill let you know if I find a way. Searched on the internet and there are ways around it but for someone whose not technically minded I cant work it out.

You think that once you buy the song from itunes you should be able to do what you want with it!

Done it.

Needed to save the song to a cd disk and then open it and rip it and then save it as a mp3 format or whatever.
