How Do You Convert An MP3 To An M4B On A Mac?
An M4B is an audio file with the ability to save the position where a listener stops the audio. This means that when restarting the audio at a later point within iTunes or on your iPod, you will pick up right where you left off. This ability makes it very useful as an audio book format. If you have older audio book files on your computer that have been imported or downloaded as an MP3 file, using iTunes’ built-in encoder and a free AppleScript provided by Doug’s AppleScripts for iTunes, converting your audio files is a breeze. Download Doug’s Make Bookmarkable AppleScript and place the downloaded script in your iTunes’ Scripts folder. This folder can be found by opening Finder and following the file path: Macintosh HD/Library/iTunes/Scripts. If the Scripts folder is not in the iTunes folder, create it by selecting File > New Folder and naming it “Scripts” Launch iTunes. Open the “Preferences” menu and under the General tab select “Import Settings.” Select “AAC Encoder” from the Encoder
