I am a bit of a computer novice but I can usually follow directions. I used the Teqnilogik EAC guide and it was great but I can’t seem to find the ALAC / Apple Lossless encode.exe file to use for the path needed in the part of EAC listed below (# 6). I think I need to add it (the ALAC exe file) to the EAC exe file, or something like that after I find it, so I can browse and then add it in the text box.
I am sure it is operator error, but I could really use some direction on finding the Apple Lossless endode.exe file and typing it in or finding it through browse for the program path (# 6) below. I have everything else set up including the additional command line (#7) for Apple Lossless which I found on this site. Thanks and I really appreciate the help. I have the latest versions of iTunes and EAC. (I am using ALAC for archiving my audio CD’s in a lossless format)
