My favourite photo retouching software is GIMP. A good free alternative to photoshop. Free download here http://bitly.com/1zbn2oc

Now you can change extensions. Change jpg or jpeg to mp3. That's all...

Answer 5

just change the extension. rename it to mp3 and it will be fine. if you cant see the extension, go to Tools > Folder Options > View and uncheck "hide known file extensions"

Answer 6

If it is a music file, then there is absolutely NO possible way for it to be a ".jpeg" file. Those are specifically for pictures. You may be thinking of an ".mpeg" file which is a movie file.

Check it out again, and repost.



But to change file types, you usually have to go into a program that supports both file types and save it as the other. Sometimes...I have been able to just change it in the filename like on Macs, but that hasnt worked in a long time. It would be best to copy the file first if you were to try that.

Answer 7

Right click the file, rename to the desired name.mp3 eg: rock.mp3

Answer 8

go to goole.com and search for software name SWITCH.....download it.......it can chagne in mp3..

Answer 9

You only changed the extension, just change it back. MP3 and JPG are totally different file formats, MP3 is an audio file, while JPG is a graphics file, you cannot convert one to the other.

Answer 10

Hmm. Downloaded it as a JPEG? Theres no-way to Convert JPEG to MP3, Sorry.
