How to Add Music from iTunes to Windows Movie Maker

Add songs from your iTunes player into Windows Movie Maker.

Windows Movie Maker is a video editing application provided with several versions of the Windows Operating System. Frequently, users of the software add music files to serve as the soundtrack to pictures, sideshows or movies. You can easily add a track from your iTunes library into your own movie by importing the songs directly into the player. Learn the proper process and enjoy home videos infused with your favorite tracks.

Instructions

1. Launch the Window Movie Maker application. Click the "File" menu at the top left side of the window and select "Import Into Collections."

2. Use the drop-down menu to choose the location of a particular song from your iTunes collection. Often these tracks are saved under "My Music."

3. Click "OK" once you have selected a song. The song will be shown under the "Collections" menu in the center of the application.

4. Add the track to your video or picture slide show by dragging and dropping it into the "Audio/Music" bar on the bottom of the screen.
