You will first need to copy the songs you want to listen to onto a compatible SD or SDHC card. Keep in mind, not all songs are compatible with Nintendo DSi XL. Some songs may be copy protected and will not work. The Nintendo DSi XL is compatible with AAC audio files with a filename extension of .m4a, .mp4, or .3gp.

What You'll Need:

  • A compatible SD Card or SDHC Card. The Nintendo DSi and Nintendo DSi XL are compatible with SD cards up to 2 GB and SDHC cards up to 32 GB.
  • Compatible music files stored on a PC or MAC.
  • An SD Card slot on the PC or MAC, or an SD Card reader/writer.

What to Do:

  • Insert the SD card into the PC or Mac
  • Open Windows Explorer (for PC) or Finder (for Mac) and select the drive being used by the SD Card to open it.
  • Open another instance of Windows Explorer or Finder and navigate to where the music is stored.
  • Highlight the desired file(s) and/or folders, copy them, and then paste them into the first instance of Windows Explorer or Finder to create copies on the SD Card.
  • Finding music files on a PC or Mac

    If you don't know where your music files are stored, try the following searches using Windows Explorer (for PC) or Finder (Mac):

  • Name of the song
  • Name of the folder the song is stored in
  • Name of the artist (many programs automatically create a folder for the artist)
  • File extension (*.m4a *.mp4 or *.3gp)

Converting music into compatible AAC audio files:

Music files that you want to play on your system may or may not be copy protected. Music files that are copy protected can not be converted to AAC files for playing on the Nintendo DSi XL. Music files that are not copy protected can be converted to different formats using music file converters.

Nintendo does not provide a process to convert music files; however, there is a number of free conversion software for your PC or Mac, one of them is called iTunes. It can can convert imported songs to ACC, just select a song and go to advanced and click create ACC version.

Whichever conversion software you decide to use, you will want to make sure the converter works with the file format you are currently using as well as the AAC format. For example, if your songs are currently in .mp3 format, you will want to find a program that can convert MP3 files to AAC.
