How do you add music to your video? I really need some help on this one! I have iTunes on my computer if that helps....?

You go onto WMM (obviously!) and open up the project that you want the song for, and on the left hand side there is a menu. Click on import audio or music. Then you chose the song that you want to import and it will appear in your collections. Then you need to drag it onto the timeline where you want the music to start.

I'm sorry if this is just me rambling on, but that's how i have done it in the past...hope this helps!

It depends on what the ending of the song is.

Ok so this is what you do

find the song that you want in itunes and right click on it. Go to get info and see if it is in mp3 format (mpeg-1 layer 3), if it is not in Mp3 format you will have to convert it within itunes (don't worry it is really easy).

go to advanced and click on Convert Selection to mp3, it will start converting right away.

Once the song is in mp3 format, go to WMM and open up the project that you are working on.
Go to file, and click import collections (ctrl i) or on the left hand side click import audio. A window will open asking you wich file you want to import. Find the file that you want to import (so if you are looking for itunes music go to My Documents>My Music>itunes>select the artist>select song , it may not be the same on your computer) and it will be imported into your project.

I did that but when I try to import the song this error comes up

The file D:/Track01.cda is not a supported file type, and it cannot be imported into Windows Movie Maker.

Please help me
