I have bought a couple albums at Itunes store and am now trying to
do one of two things. I'm trying to convert them to .mp3 and i'm
trying to burn the records to cd.
I have chosen one of the records to burn from a cd and start the
process. I get an error that the playlist is too long, although the
status row, or whatever it is indicates it's 18 songs and lasts for
1.4 hours, in other words it should fit onto a cd.
A.R. 84 minutes is too long for 1 CD. The longest commercially
available CD is 80 minutes.
When i then try to burn a cd or more as Itunes wants, Itunes burns
from track 1 to track 16 on 2 cds, that is, tracks 1 through 16 gets
burnt 2 times and then it burns from track 10 or thereabouts to
track 18 on the last cd, thereby burning a couple of songs for the
third time.
A.R. Try creating 2 separate playlists, each with 9 songs.
Ok, i say to myself, let's try converting to .mp3 then. This works
well, however, then i get another version of the files i already
have in the library and when i try deleting the .mp3 files after
having done with them what i wanted, in order to make more space on
the hard drive and try synching with the ipod i'm told that the
files will not be imported because they aren't found although they
are in my library, it's the .mp3s that are gone as they should be,
because i don't want two versions of the same songs on different
places on the hard drive, because it just takes up space.
Did anyone understand what i just typed and could anyone tell me how
to propperly go about solving this problem?
A.R. I'm confused about the last bit. Why convert to MP3? Not for
putting on the iPod, I'm sure.
Cheers,
Anne
