Create Ringtones for iPhone from scratch

I have a college song in iTunes--downloaded from the web--not from the iTunes store. I want to use part of it for a ringtone on my iPhone. The Ringtone Editor lets one do that if the tune is bought at the iTunes store--but they do not have this song in their inventory.
Is there any way I can edit the music--take the chorus from the song--and make it into an ringtone that will work with an iPhone??

You could bring it into GarageBand and create the ringtone there. See:

  • Can't create Ringtone for iPhone

    everytime I click on the ringtone symbol next to the song I want, it says that I need to accept the iTunes Store Terms of Service and that by clicking 'OK' it will direct me to that. Thing is, I've already accepted that and when I click OK, it does nothing. It's becoming a real pain..any ideas?

    I sent iTunes support a note about that and although they didn't answer my question directly, they got me around it. For what's worth, it did work; however, now I have a new problem. Long story short, don't create more than one ring tone for now. I'll post my crap about that momentarily...
    Here's what they wrote:
    First I want you to try to create a ringtone with the following steps:
    1) If you haven't already, upgrade to the latest version of iTunes, which is available free of charge on the iTunes website:
    http://www.itunes.com/download
    2) Open iTunes, access the iTunes Store, and look at a few songs. A bell icon next to a song indicates that you can make a ringtone from the song. The bell icon does not mean that the song itself is a ringtone. If you do not see any bell icons, choose View > View Options, select the Ringtone checkbox, and click OK. A ringtone column will appear and any eligible songs will have bells next to them. Purchase any ringtone-eligible song you like.
    3) Now click Purchased in the list on the left. If you do not see any bell icons, choose View > View Options, select the Ringtone checkbox, and click OK.
    4) Click the bell next to a song to begin making a ringtone. The ringtone editor will appear at the bottom of the iTunes window.
    5) Adjust the highlighted area to choose the part of the song (up to 30 seconds) you want to use as your ringtone. You can also choose to fade in or out the audio by clicking the checkboxes in the highlighted area.
    6) Select a "Looping" length, which will set the gap between each ring. Click Preview to hear your ringtone before purchasing. Once you're satisfied with your ringtone, click Buy. Your iTunes Store account will be charged 99 cents plus any applicable taxes. Any song credits or video credits that may be on your account will not be used toward the purchase.
    7) Your ringtone will appear in your iTunes library Ringtones playlist on the left side of the iTunes window.
    8) To sync the ringtone to your iPhone, connect your iPhone to your computer. In iTunes, select your iPhone on the left and click Sync. iTunes will automatically sync any ringtones you create. To sync specific ringtones, with the iPhone selected on the left, click the Ringtones tab, choose Selected ringtones, and click Apply. Check the ringtones you want to sync and click Sync.
    Please note that any ringtones you have previously synced to your iPhone will be replaced with the ringtones that you are currently syncing from your authorized iTunes library.
    To set a ringtone as your default ringtone, go to the Home screen on your iPhone. Tap the Settings icon, then tap Sounds. Tap Ringtone, then choose a ringtone. This will become your default ringtone.
    To assign a ringtone to a specific contact, go to the Home screen on your iPhone. Tap the the Phone icon, then go to your Contacts. Choose a contact, then tap Ringtone and choose the ringtone. When that contact calls, you will hear that ringtone.
    Please note that iTunes creates ringtones for iPhone only, and the ringtones you create with your iTunes Store account may not be transferred to other accounts. Also note that even if you create a ringtone from iTunes Plus (DRM-free) content, the purchased ringtone will include DRM-protection.

  • Creating ringtone for iphone

    Hello,
    I created a ringtone for an iphone and cannot get it to the ringtones on the phone. IF this is a Garageband issue can someone please help?
    I created the file and saved to my desktop. (The phone I want the ringtone on is not my phone so I could not "share" with my itunes) I was able to send this file to the person that needs it and was able to download to their itunes. I then was able to move it to the iphone ringtones on the phone when it is sync'd to itunes. But, when I go looking for it on the phone, I can only find it on the ipod part of phone.
    Did i do something wrong in Garageband or do I need to take this to iphone forum?
    Thanks
    Jim

    You don't need to move it to the iphone ringtones , you can directly Click "Share" on the menu bar and select "Send Ringtone to iTunes".

  • Creating ringtones for iPhone

    I've bought a song from the iTunes store to use as a ring tone and have it in my iTunes library in the purchased folder. When I use iTunes/store/create ringtone I get an error message, "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. An unknown error occurred (11556) Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
    Nothing else that needs the network is having a problem and I can re-connect to the iTunes store if I want to buy something. How do I get round this?

    Where are you?
    Itunes purchased ringtones are available in the U.S. only at this time.
    There are many free ways to make ringtones.
    If you type "ringtone" into the forum search bar you will find countless posts on this.

  • Creating graphics for iPhone from Photoshop

    Hi, I'm putting together my first App for the iPhone and I have a question when it comes to exporting my graphics from Photoshop. I have looked all over the web place and I can't find a direct answer, I hoped that someone might have an idea in here? It is more of a Photoshop question but directly relates to the iPhone so here goes.......
    My psd has the embedded colour profile - CHROMiX iPhone Aug08 as I have been advised to use from the web. From here all I want to do is export the graphic. I am exporting as a PNG-24. The exported graphic is either slightly washed out or much much darker. As this is my first time in doing it I don't know which is right, nor do I know why I am getting two different results.
    Any help? Please! I am going round in circles.

    Hello, Andy and welcome to the Discussions.
    I would suggest that you ask for assistance in the developer forums to which you have access as a member of Apple's iOS developer's program:
    http://developer.apple.com/devforums/
    You'll be much more likely to get assistance there, particularly with such a very specific issue. This forum is really for people using the iPhone rather than for people developing for it.
    Regards.

  • Ringtones for Iphone 4

    can't find the duplicate version of my shortened song for the ringtone. It used to work for Iphone 3, I don't know what happened. My import settings are set for AAC, I don't know what's wrong. How can I get those settings back? When I click "convert to AAC version" , I can hear the little chime that lets me know the conversion was happening, but it doesn't show the song under the regular song after it's done converting. Any information will be appreciated, thanks.

    You know, you can create ringtones for iPhone in iTunes. I can't seem to find my duplicate version of the song (the song in so many seconds ). They tell you to do the AAC conversion and click okay and you should see a duplicate of the song underneath. If you look up "How to make ringtones for iphone" in google, you'll understand what I'm saying. It's fairly easy. I just can't find my converted version.

  • Create ringtones for I-Phone 5

    I have been told 'Myxer' and 'Ventones' are really easy and useful (and free!) to create ringtone for the I-Phone from your own I-Tunes library? I have tried 'Myxer' and for the life of me, I can access the ringtone I appear to have created  via "Apps" on the device screen but cannot get it into my ringtones folder ? Has anyone experienced a similar problem and overcome it? Is Ventones any better/easier? Regards Tony

    Can I create books for iPhone using iBooks Author?

    There is a new $5 iBooks Creator app in iOS app store for the iPad.
    The output looked pretty good for an iPad app.
    There is a video on how to use it to give you an idea of how easy it is.
    It creates ePub 2 whihc can be read on all platforms with an ePub reader except Amazon Kindle whihc forbids such things.
    You can run the ePub through Calibre and get MOIB for Kindle which works for me.
    I have done thirty or forty conversions so far.

    thanks

    One of my favorite things about developing for iOS using Xcode is the Simulator. It runs any of the iOS devices simulated right on your Mac. If you don't have a hardware device to test your application on, the Xcode simulator will surely be your best friend.
    So to answer your question less vaguely, yes. You can own the iPhone 5s and develop for the 6. There is no real release information of the iPhone 6 at the time anyways, so I would not let it play too large of a factor in your decision.
