I am using Vista & Firefox. Went to bring the music in and got this:

The file C:\Users\owner\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\Leona Lewis\Bleeding
Love - Single\01 Bleeding Love.m4p cannot be imported because the codec
required to play the file is not installed on your computer. If you have
already tried to download and install the codec, close and restart Windows
Movie Maker, and then try to import the file again.

I went to Divx and downloaded codex and am not even sure what I need, anyone
help PLEASE. Still did not work and I did close WMM down and started it
over.

thanks

Movie Maker is not compatible with .m4p.
