- Use an audio converter tool or rename the file name with “.m4a” at the end to change the file type.
- Once done add the file to iTunes and to keep track of which file is of which type and to help you with this confusion you can enable the ‘kind’ option which will highlight what kind of song file is there in the library, by right-clicking on the library option and selecting the ‘kind option in the drop-down box.
- Select the ACC file type song and save it to your file.
