Hi Alison
It's a while since I have done this. What I think need to do is add the wma
files to your library. iTunes will then give you the option to convert the
files. When you agree, new versions of the files will be created in your iTunes
library. As I said, it is a while since I have had to do this.

Yes, the program is very easy to use and I believe has a help file; beware
though, as it is a free tool, it may try to offer to download additional
products during the setup process as well as browser extensions; I've been
caught out before when using this program's installer so make sure you read all
the installation steps thoroughly.
All the best and good luck, Ibrahim.

This is very helpful. Thank you.
Will the programme explain what steps I need to take?

NCH Switch Sound Converter is a tool very popular amongst the blindness
community to quickly convert audio files from one format to another. iTunes
does not natively support WMA (Windows Media Audio) format as it is a
proprietary format developed by Microsoft, so if you want to import WMA audio
files into iTunes, you need to convert them hence the use of such a tool as
Switch. It comes in a free and paid version, you can find the NCH software
downloads page for audio tools here:

Hope this answers your question.

I have some songs in wma format which iTunes will not play. Can I
convert these to mp3?
