MP3/WMA/AAC files that are playable on this device have the file extensions “mp3”/“wma”/“m4a”. Files with no extension cannot be played back (WMA ver. 7, 8 and 9 are supported). Protected files are not supported, neither are raw AAC files (using the “.aac” extension). There are many different versions of the AAC format. Confirm that the software being used conforms to the acceptable formats listed above. It’s possible that the format may be unplayable even though the extension is valid.
Playback of AAC files encoded by iTunes is supported.
