I wasn't sure where to post this but it's to do with windows media player etc so I put it here.
I have a band and recently recorded something on an MP3 player. I've loaded it onto the computer and attempted to send it to several people via MSN and e-mail. When they open it (tried a quite a few different music players) it comes up with an error message saying 'This program cannot play this type of file' (or something like that). I was wondering if anyone knows how I can convert it into an MP3 file or whether there is any other solution?
Just an update. Creative MediaSource does let you convert, but you need to have a Creative device connected to your PC, like an MP3 or sound card, in order the installation to work correctly. You can give it a shot anyways.

Download iTunes from http://www.apple.com/itunes and choose File > Open File (after you've loaded iTunes and choose your music file; if it isn't MP3, it ask you whether you want to convert)

I tried that and it won't work, when I try to open it it doesn't open- it doesn't even ask me whether I want to convert it-it only does with windows media player files.
And, I don't have a clue what tye of file it is, I've tried everything to try and find out but I can't figure it out.
As soon as you tell us what the file extension is, we can help you. Until then, we can't.
I have a feeling that you may have to use Audacity if you want to convert it to an mp3, but I also have a feeling that file could be corrupt, or you don't have the correct codecs to play it.
