So, then, what are you trying to do?

Chris

Merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous new year!

opportunity, blindness can be reduced to a mere physical

Hello there,

First of all thanks for your help but, like I have said to you
all in previous messages the files were already ripped or
downloaded from another source.  I know how to rip cd's into mp3
format and, I use a program called express rip to do this instead
of using windows media player for ripping my cd's.

I tried this format and imoo it sucks!

Thanks for the advice and, I will talk to you all soon.

Hugs,
amy

Hello Amy, have you tried using windows media player? Windows
media player
comes built in to windows so you don't' have to worry about
installing
anything else.

Just go to the start menu and search for "windows media player"
under
either all programs or into a search field for the start menu,
depending on
which version of windows you have.  If you have windows 7, you
will get the
newest version of the player.  Anyways once you launch the
program, all you
have to do is go into the tools menu and go into the options menu
item and
press enter.  The windows media player settings will appear.  
Press
control+tab to get to rip music (which is converting audio CD
tracks to a
specify digital file format.) press alt+A to jump straight into
the
"format:" combo box and press m to select to rip as mp3 format.
Tab to the
OK button and press the space bar.  You can now rip music 
(convert
music)
directly into mp3 files without problems.  To start ripping, in
the player's
user interface, you tab until you get to the rip button, the rip
window will
appear and if you want to start ripping immediately, press alt+s
to jump
quickly to and click the Start Rip Button.
Please note however that you windows media player might or might
not be
different, depending on the version of windows you have or the
version of
the player itself.  Just play around with it and let me know.

Cheers,       Humberto

Hello all,

I hope that everyone had a good Christmas and, is looking forward
to the new year! Well, I got some brand new music for Christmas
thanks to my friends and my sister and, I wanted to play some
music and, well, it's not in mp3 format.  I tried converting it 
in
express rip but, it only works for ripping albums into that
format.  I then tried to convert the wma files into mp3 format in
goldwave and, well again it wouldn't work.

So, I was wondering if any of you could help me out in how I can
convert these files of music into mp3 format from wma? What
software can I use besides the ones I just described below and,
are they accessible with jaws?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks again and, I will
talk to you all soon!

Hugs,
amy
