conversion failed

Post by frank.bungartz »

Two of the songs I recently bought on iTunes don't get added to my Android phone, when syncing, I receive a message "conversion failed". This only happens with two of many different songs (a pop-song and a classical piece).
The files are both *.m4a, but so are all other files that I bought and these others all don't cause an conversion error message when they are synced to my phone.

What are they being converted to? Can MediaMonkey play these 2 files and if so, does local manual conversion also fail for these files?

No idea what they would be converted to since they are NOT being converted (error says conversion failed...).
Media Monkey does not play the files.
I just tried iTunes and it tells me "this computer is not authorized...", but when I authorize it and try again, I get the same message. I bought the song WITHOUT DRM, what the...
So, not Media Monkey's fault.
That's why I had hoped one could purchase songs from right in Media Monkey. I just hate iTunes and would LOVE to get rid of it entirely !!!
