Did all the steps but had to click on file on my desktop to manually change extension to mp3. Happy it worked. Thank you!

[heathermason]

This was great, other than I don't have a right click option. I realised that rather than right click, you can go up to the File menu and the 'Show in Finder' option is there. Then you can follow along again. Thank you!
