Using songs from media player as ringtones on x3

i have transferred some songs from my pc to my phone but cant seem to set any of them as a ringtone, the songs on the phone are originally from my cd collection.
is it possible to set as rington? if so how??
please help

The ringtone search should find all compatible file types from anywhere in the phone, so there should not be an issue.
However, it does depend on the format - the X3 can only use Midi, MP3, AMR, AAC, eAAC+ and WMA files as ringtones, whilst thre are other formats that the phone can play in media player (including M4A, WAV etc.) which cannot be used as tones, so if the music is in a non-compatible format for tones it won't be found.
Also note that some DRM-protected audio files are prevented by their DRM from being used as tones.

  • How to set song from music player as ringtone

    Hi,
    I want to a song from my music Player as a ringtone, please advice
    Bhushan

    Songs and ringtones have different formats.  They are not interchangeable.  You would have to convert a song into a ringtone.
    If you have a Mac, you could use the GarageBand app to do that.  If you have a PC, there are apps to do the conversion, but I cannot name one.

  • Why can't I just use songs from my library as ringtones?

    If iTunes is so fundamental to the iPhone even being able to be turned on and iTunes already has a built in function to limit any song to any snippet of time shouln't it be a simple call to the same underlying iTunes function to play a song (possibly with a parameter of how long/start and stop points since apparently the mpr files are only like 45 seconds long) to have the iPhone play a song for a ring tone?  Haven't we already paid for the right to play the song once off iTunes why should we have to pay it again to buy a ringtone?  And why do the ringtones still cost $1 if they aren't even the full song?

    There is a technical reason... because that feature is not built into the phone. As for why, no-one here can comment on that.
    You are not speaking to Apple. If you want to tell them, use the 'contact us' link at the bottom of the page.

  • Putting music from Media Player into iTunes???

    So....I just recently bought my Nano. I have lots of songs on my computer (that I put on there from my CDs) in Windows Media Player 10. When I connected to iTunes (to put music on my iPod) some of my previous songs from Media Player were put into iTunes, yet there are still LOTS of songs not in the iTunes Library. And I don't think that they didn't transfer because they are "protected", it has to be something else. I've tried dragging, copying, nothing is 'allowed'. I've gone to about every window, menu, and help/support site in both iTunes and Windows Media Player. This is almost a last resort.
    Thank you SO much if you have ANY information at all!!!

    I'm having the same problem, can someone help us?????

  • Copy running song from iPhone player to my application

    I want to access the assetURL of song playing in my iPhone default player. I can get the assetURL from Media Player framework but I am not able to use that path anywhere in my app. Is there any alternate if I can copy the contents of running song to my app's .mp3 file? I need to generate beats (visualization of bars) when the song runs.
    Also, if anyone can let me know the way how can I integrate own music player and music beats concept?

  • Audacity - how to use songs from iTunes?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to create some song clips to use in a music quiz - using songs from my iTunes library. I've downloaded Audacity and the MP3 encoder but am completely stuck - not sure that the encoder is even installed yet as I can't click on anything when I try and 'find' it.
    I can't get most of my songs to play in Audacity - I think they're in an unsuitable format - .mp4? But how do I convert existing songs in iTunes into a format that I can edit in Audacity? AND then, do I burn them onto a CD in a particular format so that they will play on a PC (for the quiz)?
    Any help would be great - many thanks.

    The guide to installing the Lame encoder is here
    http://audacity.sourceforge.net/help/faq?s=install&item=lame-mp3
    I just saved mine to my Audacity folder in Applications then pointed Audacity in the right direction 1st time I used it.
    Right click on a track in iTunes and select "convert to mp3" does the trick.
    PCs read MP3's so all should be well. If not, save the tracks as WAVs (audio files).

  • HT1386 i am new to iphone and would like to use songs from my media player as ringtones is theire a simple way to do this?i was using an android phone and all you had to do was play a song you likedand push a save as ringtone button.

    i want to download ringtones from music on my computer,media player or external hard drive using windows computer;

    Import the songs to your iTunes library, use iTunes to create your ringtones (see http://cnettv.cnet.com/create-free-ringtones-itunes-10/9742-1_53-50093086.html), then sync the ringtones to your phone.

  • USing a song from my collection for Ringtone?

    If I have a song from a CD I own that the iTunes store shows can be made into a ringtone, can I do it? Or do I have to buy the actual song and then ringtone from the store?

    I didn't know how either but after learning from trial and error, I got it and will gladly explain to you.
    Open Garage Band, select Create New Music Project.
    Provide name for your project, "+Name of Song+ Ringtone" and select create.
    Mine opens with a keyboard on the screen so I close out the instrument to get out of my way.
    At the bottom right corner, there is a music note icon, click on it and it will open to your itunes music library.
    Select the song and drag it onto the grey area of the screen (loop area).
    Now you can play your song and begin to cut out the sections you don't need, just keeping the section you want for your "custom ringtone"
    Use the scissor icon and the lower section will appear where you can cut out the sections out.
    After you have cut out the front and end portions of your song, be sure to drag the remaining portion of song to the left so it will begin a 1 of the ruler.
    That can be done by grabbing the song on the top section of the screen, not the editing lower portion of screen and pulling it to the beginning of the loop area.
    Once that is done, click on Share, Send Ringtone to iTunes.
    A message will appear indicating you to adjust the length of your ringtone, select Adjust
    A yellow bar will appear below the ruler and all you need to do is click on this and pull it over the length of your section
    I've found that it's best to keep your section no longer then 15
    Once the yellow area is adjusted to the length of your ringtone, select Share, Send Ringtone to iTunes and it will begin.
    The ringtone will play on your iTunes and be saved in a Ringtone file within iTunes
    When you iphone is connected to your mac, pull the ringtone from your library to your ringtone file on your phone.
    Then you can go to setting on your iPhone, sounds, and select your Custom Ringtone as your ringer.
    Hope this helps
