I am hoping to convert WMA files to MP3 formate on a mac. I tried out the program named switch but I was unable to make that work (I was only using the trial version anyway. I did see the thread that was started in Nov 06 but it seems to be a little too old for discussion sakes. I was also hopping for new information/evolution of programs and freeware. I will try what it says about switch but I doubt it will work.
If you have any other programs, I would love to hear about them. (just as a side note, the WMA files could be protected. I don't know if they are and I dont know how to know if they are or are not. I read on the switch application page that it supports the decoded version of WMA thus that might be the reason it doesn't work).
I might be asking for something that already been discussed on here but I can't find it. I need to find a program preferably free. I need to convert itunes m4v files to non-drm mp4 files.
I am searching for software that will convert aif/aiff/aifc files to wma. Do not want to convert to mp3. All I can find is software like Switch which does not convert to wma. There seems to be an endless number of windows software which will make the conversion, but none that (that I can find) for Mac OS.

I am the owner of a shiny new iMac , aluminum and all. I am ready to do more heavy duty resource demanding things that my trusty but aged G4 Powerbook can't handle too well.

Freeware, Shareware, Retail, anything to get my job done!
I have handbrake, but want something that will allow me to convert any of my video files to avi or mpeg-2, these seem to stream a bit better and want to convert all to mainly avi, but something with a bit more options would be better. Mac only no windows apps!
I?m new to the music world but would like to start learning and I would like to start asking two questions. I would like to start converting all my music (my CDs) to .AAC or MP3 files and would like to know what would be the best way to do this.
What would be a good program to convert my music from CDs to .AAC or MP3 format in a Mac? Does itunes converts standard music format (from a cd) to .AAC by default?

Basically, I wanted to combine two pictures (copying and pasting one over part of the other) and post it on Facebook. Problem is, I couldn't figure out how to do this in iPhoto. Luckily, I realized that I could do this easily in a program called OpenOffice.org Draw. However, I can't post it to Facebook (I'm assuming because Facebook doesn't recognize an .odg file as a picture). My question is, is there any way to convert this type of file into a picture type that I could load onto Facebook? I've seen some converters online but couldn't find any that are Mac compatible.
I have a number of files that are .avi, .xvid, and mp4 that I would like to convert to dvd format, not just burn it to a disk, but burn it to a dvd-r that will play in my dvd player rather than my computer. Does anyone know of any software that can do this that is easy to use and either free or inexpensive? I have tried ffmpegx (way to complicated for me!), the trial of aimersoft - couldn't get it to convert anything, and toast. (With that I tried to burn someone that was already in dvd format but it turned it into mp4...) I have only had a mac for about three months, so I am not terribly familiar with it's workings yet... I am on OS X 10.6.5 Snow leopard I think?

every time I download a video file and convert it over to DVD format and burn in onto to a DVD-R disc it doesn't read in any dvd player. Right now I'm using YU-Burner and Burn to try this. I was wondering if there is a better program I could be using or what Im lost.

I was wondering if you guys knew a good software for Mac to convert PDF and Word to Kindle 2 format. I have used Stanza but it didn't work well, the text was all messed up when transfered to my Kindle.
I've got a movie that plays fine with the subtitles when I use VLC but when I burn it to a DVD to play in my DivX DVD player, it won't show the subtitles. Like, it recognizes there is a subtitle file there and I choose it, but they don't show up. I can't find any apps that let you convert from .sub to .srt (a more common format).
