You can download the sound app Audion with which you can convert WMA to MP3. Edit: I just rephrased this line since it seems now that this app is free of charge!!!! In the past you had to buy it and could download a demo copy to convert a few songs, not anymore :) http://www.panic.com/audion/ > I told him to convert it to MP3 but he said he has no clue what to do, > knowing him, when it comes to computers, he can't find his way out of a > playpen. There are tons of apps to convert WMA to MP3 for PC. IIRC Windows Media Player 9 and 10 can even do that. > Also as you remember, he also gave me his USB mobile drive.

Does anybody know? TIA!!!!!!!! Don't know, but best thing you can do is compress the files on the Mac with DropStuff (which comes with the Stuffit Standard Edition) before copying onto the disk. Also format the disk on a PC as FAT32, that way the files won't be truncated. HTH, Marc * * -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
