I have a macbook pro and I want to transfer my music, photos, videos to my new windows vista pc because I'm going to use it as a media center. But windows media player does not play ACC or MP4. Is there any way I can transfer it easily?
Got a tip for us?

If you mean iTunes Music Store protected files, then you'll have to write them out to CD and re-import. It's also possible to get M4a playback in Media Center. If you want to convert, there's always dbpoweramp.
There might be codecs for the WMP, that support AAC and MP4, but if you bought your music in the iTunes Music Store, it won't play in the WMP, because the music is encrypted and only iTunes knows how to decrypt it. You could however burn the tracks to CD and rip them but that's a pain..
Probably because it's not a 10ft interface. And Media Center is considerably better than Front Row if you are using it as a more or less dedicated media center.
A display with all elements visible from 10 feet away on a TV. It's a general term for an HTPC interface like the Front Row / Microsoft Media Center display.
