All I'm trying to do is import music from my iTunes, edit the song a little, and burn the songs to a disc (or save it back to iTunes) If someone could tell me how to do these things, I'd be grateful!

I''m reading thru all of the forum questions and they all seem like pretty advanced topics, yet I cannot get this basic task to work for some reason. It seems like the song imports, but when I hit play, it just plays a fast sound and the line shoots to the end of the screen.

While reading the other topics, I saw something about M4A files and after looking at the properties of my songs, I believe that is what my iTunes is making these files, not mp3 for some reason.

I also read that Audacity is made to work with for iTunes... but why can't I get this seemingly simple import to work? How do I fix this problem?
