Hey guys I have a question. I have been working with Garage band on my imac and I created some cool songs. Now I wanted to use them in FCE but it won't let me. Is there anyway to change how the music is saved as in garage band? I believe it's a M4a file. Also is there a way to get music I created in imovie into FCE? Thanks for your time and advice.

I have, but have never used, Garage Band. I checked the "help" and found this:

You can export a song to an iTunes playlist, then play your exported
songs in iTunes, download them to an iPod, or burn the playlist to a CD. Files
are exported to iTunes in AIFF format. You can convert the exported file to
another format, such as AAC or MP3, from within iTunes.

Final Cut will accept AIFF files.

Hmm I'll have to mess around with it. I do have my songs in itunes and that's how I knew they were .m4a files.

I got it figured out. I converted the M4a file to an Mp3. I was making it more difficult than it needed to be. Thanks for helping.
