Hi Barry, If you’re trying to play an AAC file that was not created using iTunes or downloaded from the iTunes Store: Songs you download from the iTunes Store or import into your library using the AAC encoder are encoded using the new MPEG-4 AAC format, and play in iTunes and on your iPod, iPhone, and iPad.
Other AAC files that you find on the Internet or elsewhere won’t play in iTunes. For more information, see Choose import settings or Save a copy of a song in a new file format.
