Google for a program called Quickmix.  I'm sure that is what I used.
That'll convert most file types, from what I recall.

Perhaps your best bet is to get the free Sound File Converter program
which will allow you to create mp3 files from the wma files. A Google
search should find the download site.

Hi Ken
 
A milestone is a MP3 player.  I'm afraid the WMA files won't play on it.
You're going to have to rip them into a format the player will recognise
I'm afraid.

All,
 
Hope some can help unravel the challenges of modern technology - or at
least it is modern for me!
 
I have just acquired a portable Daisy player that also plays MP3 files.
I have successfully loaded talking books on to the machine, but cannot
work out how to get music from Windows Media Player on to the player.
 
I have ripped the music as WMA, and think it needs converted , but
cannot find the controls on WMP to do this.
 
Is the challenge that Jaws is not giving me the direction to manage WMP,
which I generally find adequate, or is it that I need something else to
allow me to change the music already ripped in to the required format.
I really don't want to have to rip all my disks again in a different
format if I can avoid it.
 
I am using Vista, WMP11 and Jaws 10, and am loading on to a Milestone,
though that just requires standard MP3 format.
 
Appreciate any suggestions.
 
Ken
