    I am aware you cannot load DRM (itunes purchased) songs but I have a large itunes selection, mostly of my own CDs ripped into AAC M4a (called mpeg4 in win7) format.. and i cannot get them to load into TP2.

    what am i doing wrong here?..

    help please..

    So whether i set the path to the itunes library in TP2 or whether i simply try to load the m4a file from the music folder all i ever get is...

    The track xxxxxxxx .m4a could NOT be played due to a missing or corrupt file, unsupported format or DRM protection.

    these files are not DRM files...

    any ideas?

    any m4a files I had or received had to be converted for me to be able to play them in Traktor. Hopefully someone else has an answer.

    You need to have Quicktime installed to get AAC support.

    thanks for this!.. I wasnt aware of that..

    I had buggered about with this for a couple of days.. finally gave up and installed iTunes...which made it work (but clearly only cos of the associated install of quicktime)

    cheers

    I have the same exact problem only i do have quicktime installed. I have TSP set up identically on 2 dif computers with the same exact itunes files. 1 computer will load the songs and the other wont... The songs also play fine in itunes, they just wont load into TSP. Any ideas?

    Hi,

    I had exactly the same problem to,
    Just install Quick Time, and problem's done
    @scfcross : had you give to your 2 computers the right acess to your itunes library "advanced --> give the rigth to this computer" in the bottom of the menu (this is not exactly wich is write in iTune cause mine is in french)
