I am terribly sorry but my computer lingo is severely handicapped. I, too, have a mac (OS 8.6) and am having the problem with the files not being recognized as audio files. They're recognized as limewire 18c documents. Toast won't even let me drag them into the audio screen (but it will let me drag them into the data screen which didn't help.) I read the reply about stuffit expander. I have that, but I don't understand what I'm supposed to do with it. I moved it to the desktop as well as all of the song files and then dragged each of the song files into the stuffit folder. Is this what you meant? Because, if it is, they're still documents with the icons being those little pieces of paper with the corner folded over. I've been at my computer for the past TWELVE HOURS TRYING TO GET ONE LITTLE CD. Please, oh please help me. Thank you so much.
