I assume you downloaded the FLAC files. You'll need to use FLAC Frontend (free program) to decode the files back to their original format (likely WAV). You can import that into iTunes and create an AAC version there. Unless someone knows a better way...

If you've purchased the flac files you're also able to download the mp3. Go to My Account, purchase list and you'll be able to redownload anything you've purchased. Be aware you're entitled to 3 downloads max. After that, it's purchase again.

If it's ajust a case of importing to itunes then the mp3 is easiest.

I had trouble too. I downloaded the MP3's. In my version, on the left bottom half of the menu, you'll see my purchases. If you click on them you should be able to see where they have been stored on your harddrive. Or via your downloads under documents. From there you can file them in your music file and open them onto Itunes so that you can play, synch your IPOD and burn them somewhere safe on a cd so you don't lose them ever if your IPOD breaks or something. Good luck. These are hard times and hard to focus.
