How to use iTunes M4P in Adobe Flash CS3?

I have bought lots of music from iTunes music store, now I have a Flash project and want to use this music file. However, The Flash ActionScript function loadSound could NOT load M4P files. Could I still use my purchased music files with Flash project?

If you meet the same problem too, You got the right place! Please read this simple guide to import the DRM protected M4P music file into your Flash project.

The M4P music files you purchased from iTunes store is protected by DRM, they could not be played without iTunes, iPod, iPhone etc Apple's product. So you could NOT edit. You could NOT even use them in your Flash project directly too. You need some software to convert the protected M4P music file to unprotected MP3, WAV etc first, then use the loadSound function to load the MP3 files.

TuneClone is such a software to convert the M4P music file to MP3, WAV easily. You can click here to download TuneClone and convert them to MP3 files before importing to your Pinnacle project. [Read more guide...]

 

 

TuneClone uses a virtual CD burning technology to simulate the burning and ripping process and can convert M4P files to MP3 without any CD-R disc and do this work quickly. TuneClone installs a virtual CD-RW, it helps you burn any unprotected or DRM protected M4P, M4a, WMA music files onto the virtual CD, rips tracks on the virtual CD, encodes tracks onto MP3, WAV or WMA music files. It can repeat this audio converting procedure until your whole music collection is done.

Since the virtual CD emulates your computer RAM and hard disk as erasable CD-RW drive (Virtual CD-RW), the converting speed is faster than any other m4p to mp3 conversion programs.

 

More About Adobe Flash CS3

Adobe Flash (previously called Shockwave Flash and Macromedia Flash) is a set of multimedia technologies developed and distributed by Adobe Systems and earlier by Macromedia. Since its introduction in 1996, Flash technology has become a popular method for adding animation and interactivity to web pages; Flash is commonly used to create animation, advertisements, various web page components, to integrate video into web pages, and more recently, to develop rich Internet applications.

Flash can manipulate vector and raster graphics and supports bi-directional streaming of audio and video. It contains a scripting language called ActionScript. It is available in most common web browsers and some mobile phones and other electronic devices (using Flash Lite). Several software products, systems, and devices are able to create or display Flash, including the Adobe Flash Player. The Adobe Flash Professional multimedia authoring program is used to create content for the Adobe Engagement Platform, such as web applications, games and movies, and content for mobile phones and other embedded devices.

Files in the SWF format, traditionally called "ShockWave Flash" movies, "Flash movies" or "Flash games", usually have a .swf file extension and may be an object of a web page, strictly "played" in a standalone Flash Player, or incorporated into a Projector, a self-executing Flash movie (with the .exe extension in Microsoft Windows). Flash Video (FLV) files have a .flv file extension and are used from within .swf files.

Testimonials

"I just wanted to send an email to let you know how great this product is. I had an iPod shuffle that shorted out, and when searching for a new MP3 player, I liked other players much better than those sold by Apple. But I was upset to discover that none of the 100 plus songs I had in my iTunes library could be downloaded to any other MP3 player but an iPod. It made me angry to realize that songs I PAID for (not stole) were useless to me unless I purchased an Apple product, which I was loathe to after finding out about this. Finding your product saved me, and my music. Now I can buy the MP3 player I want and not lose any of the songs I have bought. Thanks so much!" -- Tiffany
