Make certain that you delete the new AAC file you created out of iTunes before you try to add the m4r file back to the library.

Your import settings for importing CDs must be set to AAC for you to get the above mentioned “Convert to AAC” menu option. Click Edit and go to Preferences. On the General tab there should be an Import Settings button. Change to AAC.
