When trying to upload my carols for the carol collection with the Dec. 18th deadline, I get an error message saying the file type is wrong. I have my material all prepared correctly, I believe. How can I get through to get these uploaded?

Thanks for your help. The BC is Rapunzelina.

OK, I was able to get them uploadable by using sound converter. I'm not sure why, but Audacity wasn't saving them out exactly the way they needed to be. Thanks!

May I venture a guess that you were using "Save As..." in Audacity instead of "Export"? When using "Save", Audacity creates its own format of the "project". In order to create an MP3 file, you should use "Export" (briefly in 2.2.0 that was called "Save Other", which is back to "Export" in 2.2.1).
