Sep 2, 2009 How To Transfer an AIFF to MP3
I noticed a tweet today from @drthomasho to @gardenglen saying he was having trouble figuring out how to transfer an .AIFF file, which he recorded with our iTalk Recorder app, to MP3 format.
Before you transfer the file, go ahead and start up iTunes.
- Go to iTunes (top left corner)
- Choose Preferences
- Select Import Settings (down in the middle)
- Choose Import Using
- From the drop down menu choose MP3 Encoder

Now when you import files from iTalk to iTunes you can easily convert them to MP3:
- Click the file in iTunes (so it’s blue)
- Select Advanced
- Choose Create MP3 Version
A second file will be created in iTunes. One will be the original .AIFF and the newer one will be an .MP3.
I hope this helps.
