    Hey guys just a quick but extremily important question. Whenever I try to use a song on wondows movie maker thats pops up.

    The file C:\Users\*\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\_Weird Al_ Yankovic\Straight Outta Lynwood\01 White & Nerdy (Parody of _Ridin'_.m4p cannot be imported because the codec required to play the file is not installed on your computer. If you have already tried to download and install the codec, close and restart Windows Movie Maker, and then try to import the file again.

    So does anyone know were I can get a codec so I can use my songs from iTunes on wmv?

    So all I need to do is find my song file like from iTunes(which is what i'm doing) and then on the right side click on the thing saying *MPEG-4 advanced coding(.m4a,mp4)?
    And then click on teh okay?
    And this is legal and safe for my computer right?

    yes but mp4 is only video coding
    you need it tp be a mp3 file if it's audio only

    yes input whatever extension the file already is ( .mp4, .mpa, etc )
    then click on what ever you want the file to be converted to

    it's 100% safe, i've been using it for years
