Hi

This is probably because the DRM (Digital Rights Management) in  iTunes has'locked' the file so you canonly use on your registered Apple devices.

To use it externally of you need to export it, however the DRM may stop this depending on the copyright terms for the music you bought.

To import songs downloaded from iTunes to sondforge pro 11, you need a converter. TuneSolo Apple Music Converter is a good choice because it can help you decipher the DRM protection mechanism and download songs in MP3 format.
