Change a song into a ringtone

how do i change a song into a ringtone

I've seen the suggestion to follow ehow iPhone ringtones before, but, as with every other suggestion, I get to one point and what my computer says and what the instructions claim it will say are two different things. For instance, I get to the point on the ehow tutorial (#11) to right-click the ringtone and select "Delete." I do that, and what is SUPPOSED to pop up is a selection box with a (#12) "Keep Files" option. I do not get the "Keep Files" option; rather, a "Remove" or "Cancel" button. If I click "Cancel," of course, it brings me back to square one. If I select "Remove," it removes the files and closes it out with no option to keep the file somewhere. What type of computer is actually in use in the ehow directions?

    How do I turn a purchased song into a ringtone without repurchasing the song?

    This isn't possible.
    The song's copyright holder would charge more for it if it was being played on multiple devices at once but overlooks the remote possibility that any given person would be playing the full song on two or more devices at the same time; there's much more chance of that happening if the song is converted into a ringtone, so they charge more.

  • How do i make a song into a ringtone

    how do i make a itune song into a ringtone

    THe song file has to be in m4r format. Just take your song and convert it into the m4r with a free program like formatfactory ( my preferred choice because it can convert almost any file type) or any other converting program.
    now, I'm not sure if the file HAS to be 30 seconds, but if it does, u can download a free audio program and snip out the 30 second section you want and save it as a separate file. Then convert the new file into a m4r.
    THen you just add the m4r file into your iTunes library and it will show up under tones.
    hope this helped

  • How can I make a song into my ringtone? I have a new iphone 3GS.

    How can I make a song my ringtone?

    Replace the m4a extension of a sound file with m4r.
    Or open m4a file in Quicktime, cut the bit you need,
    then just "save as",
    Then rename the .mov to m4r!
    Copy the m4r to itunes.
    Check ringtones are sync'd.
    And your done.

  • Purchased song into ringtone

    I'm trying to create ringtones from songs I bought through i-tunes and it says the songs "can no longer be made into a ringtone" but some other songs I have purchased work. What's the deal?

    Not all songs have been licensed for use as an iphone ringtone by the band/record label.
    The songs that currently have a bell icon in the bell/ringtone column (in itunes) should be available as a ringtone - although that can change.

    After you open the iTunes application select "iTunes Store" in the left panel.
    On the top right corner below the "Search iTunes Store" you should see your ID for the store. Click on it.
    Enter your password and click on "View Account".
    Click "Purchase History" and then click "Report a problem".
    On your latest purchases you should now be able to click on the link "Report a problem", select the "Problem" and enter your "Comments".

  • Song into ringtone

    I downloaded the Star Wars song, and later tried to convert into a ringtone---only to be told by itunes that it can no longer be made into a ringtone.
    is there a way to tell if a song from itunes can be made into a ringtone without having to buy it first.

    Eligible songs are indicated with a bell icon next to the song name.

  • Five minutes later"this song can no longer be made into a ringtone"

    I downloaded a song that had the bell next to it. Five minutes later, it's downloaded, and I click the bell icon to make my ringtone. A box popped up that said "this song cannot be made into a ringtone- this song can no longer be made into a ringtone"
    What's up with that??? I already had this song in my library. I only downloaded it again so that I could make the ringtone, and now it won't work. Anybody know what to do??
    Thanks, Kelly

    I am having the SAME issue - I just bought a song 2 days ago that clearly had the bell icon next to it. Right after downloading the song I clicked "create ringtone" and received the same error message "this song can no longer be made into a ringtone". SO I called iPhone - they can't help...so I emailed iTunes and I am getting the total run around. I clearly explained this issue to which they have replied with FAQs on ringtones and articles on how to download ringtones, duh. I re-authorized my computer, restarted it, on and on...still nothing. It seems like iTunes support wants to ignore my true problem and just keep running me around in circles.

  • Song can no longer be made into a ringtone

    I just purchased and downloaded a song. I go into store - create a ringtone and I get the message that this song can no longer be made into a ringtone.
    Any ideas what this means and how to fix?
    Thanks,

    When you download songs in iTunes only those with a little bell symbol are able to be made into a ringtone...
    Or you can use DRM free media to make your own ringtones in Garage Band
