Hey I am having trouble importing audio files into my project. I have tried from iTunes and Cd's. Do I have to convert the files to mp3 or wav and if so how do I do that?? When I go into Import media files and find the song I want to import nothing comes up in the file name under audio files and if I try to drag and drop I get this message "Make sure that this is a valid file type and that it's contents have not been corrupted". Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Let me know if you need more info. Cheers!!
I think that it is a matter of file formats or DRM protection. You can try to convert the audio to mp3. Or if there is DRM protection you can try to remove them with some tools. There are some great ways have been developed to help you convert the iTunes DRM M4B audiobook to MP3 so that you can easily transfer and play the iTunes audiobook file on any device or platform you like.

You are using windvd so that must mean you use windows, i'm not sure if you have to convert but if you do, (just try)
if you want to use it from a cd, start windows media player, go to the rip menu, and rip the songs to the prefered location
itunes format is probably m4p, m4a or m4b, you can convert these with Protected Music Converter
it's even free!

Why won't my music files work in Photo & Video Expressions? [SlideShow too, I guess]
Photo & Video Expressions is not compatible with audio files that have been protected by Digital Rights Management (DRM) functionality. Most audio files purchased online through Internet music retailers like iTunes, Urge, or Rhapsody are encrypted with some form of DRM. Similarly, audio files that have been extracted from a CD or DVD (the process known as "ripping") using certain media applications (iTunes, Windows Media Player, etc.) often have default settings that encrypt the files extracted.
There is no way to use DRM audio files purchased from online music retailers with Photo & Video Expressions. However, if you want to use music and audio files that you have extracted from your CD collection, then all you have to do is change the ripping setting in your media application before you extract the files to your computer.
Suggestions are given on how to change ripping settings in iTunes and Windows Media Player.
However, it is always good to contact the technical support team at individualsoftware.com. You first have to register your product with them in order to get help, but this online assistance is free and worthwhile trying out.
