iPod assistance needed

Recommended Posts

Guest Phenom

I have an iPod Mini, and use a Mac. My iPod Mini has filled up it's memory, and I want to change its format from WAV files to MP3 files. I have asked for assistance, but to no avail. How do I change file formats the night before a road trip?

iTunes Menu -> Preferences

Click Importing tab

Choose MP3 if you want to.* Choose a bitrate, too.

Uncheck "Play while importing" so you don't have the computer trying to play music while it's working.

Highlight your WAV songs in the Library. Hold down the Apple key to select more than one track.

Advanced menu -> Convert selection to MP3

 

 

* By default, iTunes encodes in AAC which is better than MP3 and iPods can play them (locked AACs what's used for Music Store.) The only difference is that MP3s are more easily tradeable online. So if sound quality matters to you and online swapping doesn't, go that route if you want to.
