Convert MP4 to MP3
My new car will allow me to play MP3 songs off a flashdrive. Unfortunately my entire iTunes library appears to be MP4.
Any way I can flip them back to MP3??
Thanks in advance.

Go iTunes prefs>General - at the bottom is 'Import Settings' - change the 'Import Using' to whatever mp3 setting you want - then select a tune in iTunes and from the 'Advanced' option in the menu bar select 'Create MP3 version'.
This will create a .mp3 version and the original .mp4 will still be there.

If you are listening to a music video, but the file shows in the "movie" app on your device, then I suggest you go to itunes, find the file, right click>get info>options>media kind>music video
That way, when syncing with your device, the file will be in your music library as a video, but function the same as other mp3. files.
Thanks Mike.
You're a genius!!
Enjoy. đ

Thr same info was posted by Mike Johnson in the 1st response to this topic...
I am not seeing how you can right click on the file and see the convert to mp3? I did set import settings to MP3.
I normally use a free MP4 to MP3 converter to get this to work.
A protected files must first be burned to Audio CD, then the tracks must be imported again into the iTunes library.
I just found a youtube tutorial shows a free video converter could help achieve the job, see the video here:

I went through all the steps again, still no luck đ

So you want to keep the MP3 files on your hard drive but not iTunes?
Yep.
On iTunes 11.0.5, it's Option + Right Click to get Convert to MP3 to show. đ
Um, not really. It's actually Control+Click.
