Hi
I spent 4 nights converting all my tracks last week:bang:. I found the quickest way to do it was one album at a time. First I right-clicked on the opening track to "Get Info". As long as it doesn't show as protected AAC you can convert it so highlight opening track and then hit shift and arrow down to highlight whole album. Right click to "convert to mp3". Both formats will now be on I Tunes but all the AAC tracks will be highlighted blue after the conversion completes. Right click and click delete otherwise you will run out of memory keeping both formats. It will ask you a question - tick the box to say don't ask me this again. It then gives you the option of moving the deleted aac files to the recycle bin. Once you have re formatted all the albums you want to sync the ipod with your computer and all the tracks will convert on your Ipod.
Good luck with this. It's worth it in the end.

im now updating my ipod... i converted all the songs to mp3 format i believe... deleted all my music apart from those that are of mp3 format so there should be no worries... however I have the feeling there may be! I dont trust these converters!
