Convert WMA audio files

What is a WMA file?

Windows Media Audio (WMA) is an audio data compression technology developed by Microsoft. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.wma

How do I convert WMA files to something useful?

Macintosh

Use Switch with Flip4Mac. You'll need to install both to convert WMA files. Note: As of Dec 2009, there is a conflict between the latest version of Switch and Flip4Mac causing it to crash while trying to convert wma files. Make sure you use a previous version of Flip4mac 2.2.3.7 seems to be working.

Once installed (or if you're in the Computer Center where these apps are already installed):

1. Drag your .wma file into Switch
2. select the output format that you desire from the drop down menu (i.e. .wav or .mp3)
3. Pay attention to the output folder. This is where your converted file is going to be saved
4. highlight your file in the main window and select Convert
