You need this free sw - allow WMV to be played by Quicktime

JEK's Flip4mac and Perian (http://perian.org/) and the Mac will show pretty much everything.

.wav yes. iTunes will open .wmv no. Unless you have the conversion tools.

I don't remember getting the software, but I have wmv's on my computer, and can open them when I receive them in emails.
I'm gonna send you one which some find offensive...
