Hey, I tried what you said, and when I clicked "convert selection to mp3", I got a message that says "song could not be converted because protected files cannot be converted to other formats". What can I do to get my songs onto my phone? Thanks.

I don't think that iTunes will let you convert a song you purchase from them. It comes in a protected format that will only allow you to play it on your computer or copy to an iPod. You have to use an MP3 that you obtained from another source or ripped yourself from a CD.

hey, i tried this, changing the extention, and then emailin it to my fone via vzwpix and i got the email on my fone, but it said it "dropped the attachment." It does this when its an mp3, or when i change the ending to mid or midi. PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks
...
Yep, me too. I posted that before I actually tried getting a .mid file onto my phone. It worked on my 710. I can get an MP3 into the Tunes section using QPST and a cable but I can't get the phone to recognize a .mid file for use as a ringer. Think I saw something about that in an old post here or on Howard Forums but haven't had the time to dig for it yet.
