Converting ?

I have downloaded 2 shows using the uTorrent and they are both finished. I've tried a few of the converters but when I go to find them, I can locate the file, but theres nothing there to convert. Am I missing something. It shows they are downloaded 100%. Plz help!

    What app do you want to use to listen to the songs? VLC will play the .flac files...

    I was having trouble converting them out of .shn files. I downloaded complete and tried to find them when I had the converter program open and wasnt having any luck. I could find the file to "add" but there were no songs in it.?????????

    Hi! After a few days, I have downloaded a few shows and converted them to WAV but when I burn them to a cd I cannot hear them on my truck cd player. I am completely new at this and was wondering what I am doing wrong. When I play the cd on my computer it plays it through itunes? I am trying to burn a few shows for my sisters bday. Any help would be great!

    Cheers!

    Re: Converting ?

    While we're on the topic of converting, when I convert the files, they keep their long title (ex. dmb2012-07-20), even though when I view them in the Toast (program) window prior to to converting them, they say the actual track names (ex. Seven). Is it possible to keep the track name as Seven and not dmb2012-07-20? That would save me a lot of time with changing the names in iTunes. Thanks in advance for any assistance!

    Re: Converting ?

    OK i'm relatively new to all of this. Last time i used anything similar was back in the day of Napster.

    I a Mac guy trying to figure out how to play shows I have downloaded. I would also love to be able to put them in my iTunes. Any advise??

    I have looked a around and seems like most of the info that i'm finding on here is from about a year ago. I'm sure that bigger and better have come out and I would like to get up to speed.

    Thanks in advance

    Use XLD to convert audio files; It's free and easy to use.
