Hi,
iTunes encrypt the songs into the AAC format, which is ony recognised by iPods.
that is the reason why you cannot play them in your mp4 player.
try to downolad the songs you from another website.
and download them in the mp3 format.

Use WinAmp. Open win amp. Then using Winamp, choose the function to import your itunes library. Ypu will see folder tiltled :purchased", in it are all songs bought and dL'd in itunes. Click on this folder. Winamp displayes them in a window. Now, left click on the song you want to transfer, and drag it to the folder that represents your mp3 player in winamp. Winamp handles the conversion from itunes format to mp3.

You can not put any music on your mp3 player from iTunes because you must have an iPod in order to get any songs, videos,games and etc.



I hope you guys read this because it's the truth and it helps you to stop waisting all of your time trying.
Because it dosen't Work

That's due to the DRM (digital rights management) protection which prevent other players playing their content.

Apple has "fair play" DRM system, the iTunes music with .m4p extension, audio book with .m4b extension, and video/movie with .m4v extesion are all DRM wrapped.

Napster and other online stores like Rhapsody, Amazon Unbox, Blockbuster, CinemaNow etc use Windows Media "plays for sure" DRM system, music or movie downloaded there are protected wma or wmv.

Zune Marketplace from Microsoft also provides protected wma and wmv by employing another unique DRM system.

Now you might know why the music you got from iTunes Napster couldn;t play on your Phillips MP3 player

Generally, DRM removal software can help you with it, as they can strip the DRM protection (playback license in fact), convert music or video to various formats that can play on various players.

I know Aimersoft Music Converter and Aimersoft Media Converter are such professional DRM converters, one for music only, another for music and video both.

You can have the free version of them here:

I was having this same problem, but the solution I came up with was forehead-slappingly simple. I merely put the files on my MP3 player manually, using drag-and-drop from the itunes music file folder (not from within the program) to the device storage folders.

I can't say if this will work for all MP3 players (ours is a Sony walkman), as they need to be able to play m4a files. But after trying a dozen ways to get WMP to recognize the m4a, and trying to get itunes to recognize the players (including trying 3rd party addons which would have had to completely erase the player to start with)... I just figured I'd try just drag and drop and to my surprise, it worked perfectly, absolutely no problems. I'm listening to my itunes-purchased music on the MP3 player right now.

I have a sansa clip, 2G and I was having the same problem. I tried the other recommendations on this page and none of them were successful.

What I DID find was a recommendation from Cnet.com for a program called "Free Mp3 Wma Converter V1.8" made by Koyote Soft, 2008.

Go to Koyotosoft.com to download.

THE SOLUTION: Select tracks in i-tunes and convert to MP3. Works for all formats apart from "Protected AAC". You then right click over selected MP3s (or MPEG) and copy. Then past them into memory card for MP3 player in Windows Explorer. Works perfectly for me.

Actually if you just want free music without any illegal problems, you should use the youtube downloader. here is the link...http://download.cnet.com/YouTube-Downloader/3000-2071­_4-10647340.html. copy and paste the URL to the video in the programs' input box (top box). once you downloaded the music video, hit convert to MP3. delete the old flv. file and keep the mp3 as a song. theres a way around everything:).

I think the reason is your MP3 Player' brand. Itunes only works with iPod models. iPod /iTouch/iPhone transfer to PC
