I can't import some audio files from my computer to Logic, They play in iTunes but when I import them to logic , the regions become black almost and have no sound. Other wav's files play normally. What's the problem?

WAV and AIFF are both PCM formats, meaning their audio is "binarized" almost identically, the main differences are in the few hundred bytes of info that form the file header. WAV is the "native" audioformat for DOS/Windows based machines, AIFF is Apples' "native" audioformat. Sometimes WAVs' made in Windows have small incompatibilities in their file header, which disappears/gets rectified when converted to AIFF.
