If you have converted your music CD collection already into iTunes .M4A format and you want to play it on your Nokia 6630 (and quite possibly other Nokia mobiles), or maybe you just want to try the .AAC format and use iTunes to convert or rip, this is how to do it easily and free of charge. Please note, this method will not help with music purchased from the online iTunes shop (.m4p) as this is DRM-protected.

1. Find out where your collection of iTunes m4a files with tags (this is covered elsewhere on this site).

2. Download and install foobar 2000 from http://www.foobar2000.org/(make SURE it is the special installer is this comes with the mp4 tools required)

3. Download and install mp3tag from: http://www.mp3tag.de/en/download.html.

4. Open foobar and open the files that you want to convert.

5. Select all of the files by clicking the first one, holding down the shift key and clicking the last one.

5. Right click one of the files and select mp4 tools, extract mp4 tracks then choose a folder to extract them to. This will save them as phone readable aac files

Thats the aac files extracted. Now to get the tags readable by the phone!

Technical info: These files with have APEv2 tags, the phone can only read id3v1 tags hence the next steps!

6. Close foobar, open Mp3tag and open the files that you are working on. Select them all, as before.

7. Right click on one of the files and select save tag. That will add the correct format tag to the file.



8. Close mp3tag and copy the files to your phone!
