- Start iTunes and find the song you want to convert. (It must be an MP3.)
- Right-click the song and choose Get Info. & Click the Options tab.
- Check the Start Time and Stop Time boxes, then enter times for each (no more than 30 seconds apart, the maximum length for a ringtone). I used 0:00 and 0:30, respectively, as "Spit It Out" has a perfect ascending lead-in. Click OK.
- Then right-click the song again and choose Create AAC Version. You should immediately see a new 30-second version of the song.
- Drag that version out of iTunes and into the folder of your choice.
- Delete the 30-second version from iTunes and undo the Start Time/Stop Time changes to the original.
- Open the folder containing the 30-second AAC file you dragged out of iTunes, then change the file extension from .m4a to .m4r. For windows, have to go to control panel first. Click on fold options then select "show extensions of known files" [or deselect "Hide extensions for known file types" under View] then hit OK
- Double-click it to play and it immediately gets added to iTunes' ringtone library.
- Finally, sync your iPhone. When it's done, you can head into the settings->sounds->ringtone and select your new ringtone under Custom.
- If Sync does not work automatically, select the desired ringtone and you can manually drag it to your iPhone
Enjoy the customised ringtone of yours! (^o^)
