How do I make a ringtone with GarageBand for my iPhone from rights-protected AAC audio files I purchased from iTunes?

When I try to import some songs I purchased from iTunes into GarageBand so I can create a customer ringtone a window pops open stating that I cannot import a rights-protected AAC audio file?  I bought the song from iTunes and can play it on my iPhone iPod application.  Does not make sense except from a mercenary perspective why I cannot create  a custom ringtone from the song and play it on my iPhone when the phone rings.  Is there a solution?

You cannot use DRM protected songs for this as they are drm protected to stop you from doing this.
Any itunes plus ( all itunes music sold over the past couple of years or so) can be used to make ringtones.

  • How do I make my computer the primary for my iPhone 3G?

    How do I make my computer the primary for my iPhone 3G? I am able to load music from my iTunes library but unable to delete music or create playlists on the phone from itunes. The computer I set the phone up with (primary) was destroyed.

    There is no "main" or " primary" account.
    Iphone, ipod touch, ipad will sycn with one and only one computer at a time.  Syncing to another will indeed erase the current content from the device and replace with content from the new computer.
    Copy everything from the old computer or your backup copy of the old computer, to the new one.

  • How do you make the ringtones with the new iTunes??

    Thanks!!

    You can't do it because they aren't available yet. Some time later this week, custom ringtones will be made available. You will know when it has happened because many of the songs in iTunes Music Store will show a little bell icon next to the track name. That bell icon means that the track can be used to make a custom ringtone.

Is there any way i can disconect from this device acount and make a new one so my iphone goes back to normal?

  • How can I create a new ring tone for my iPhone 4?

    How can I create a new ring tone for my iPhone 4? I followed the Garage Band process and ended up with the ring tone I want as a AAC audio file. It got stored in my iTunes a a song rather than a ring tone. How do I make it a ring tone vs. a song? I tried dragging it t the Ring Tone category at the bottom of the ITunes list, but it won't alloow me to move it?

    There's also an easy to use Applescript over at Doug's Applescripts for iTunes. It automates the whole thing. All you do is set the start and stop time on a file in iTuens and run the script. It will do everything else.

  • How do you make a slideshow with pictures & videos?

    ok, i'm new to mac & video editing. i want to make a slideshow with pictures & @ the end of it, i want to put in a clip from a home video. if i put the home video on a DVD, will i be able to edit it? i know i have to edit the video in imovie but where do i go from there? can i import it into iphoto & make the slideshow there? if so, how do i save the imovie project as the right file type so i can import it into iphoto? if i can't make it in iphoto, what program do i use? i want the slideshow to be able to be viewed on a PC also.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. As already mentioned you'll need to use a 3rd party slideshow application or iMovie.
    However, you can create a slideshow in iDVD with stills and a video clip as iDVD 7 (08) now permits both stills and movie clips to be placed in a slideshow. This screenshot shows multiple video clips in an iDVD slideshow but you can also have stills and video clips.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • How can I make textedit start with a new (blank) document?

    How can I make textedit start with a new (blank) document?
    Instead of it starting up with a dialogue box to select an existing or start a new document.

    @Alley_Cat thanks for the ideas.
    I turned off System Preferences > iCloud > Documents&Data - problem solved.
    I'll use DropBox instead  - it provides the options for a better experience.  I hope Apple keep working on iCloud so that it doesn't go the way of Moble Me.

  • How can I make the popup with empty fileds and create new record?

    I would like to use a popup to create new record.
    I created a af:popup by drag and drop a VO from data control to jsff. then, I created a button and place a af:showPopupBehavior. I was able to popup window by click the button.
    however, the window filled with the information from the 1st record. and when I select a record in table and click popup, the popup is filled with that record.
    How can I make the popup with empty fileds and create new record by saving the popup?
    Thanks

    You can have edit and new buttons, in the PopupFetchEvent identify button source (using popupFetchEvent.getLaunchSourceClientId()) if new button clicked clear the binding using below code.
    If you want to see empty fields, in the popup PopupFetchEvent clear the input component bindings.
    resetBindingValue("#{bindings.<componentid>.inputValue}", null);
        public static void resetBindingValue(String expression, Object newValue) {
            FacesContext ctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
            Application app = ctx.getApplication();
            ExpressionFactory elFactory = app.getExpressionFactory();
            ELContext elContext = ctx.getELContext();
            ValueExpression valueExp = elFactory.createValueExpression(elContext,expression,Object.class);
            Class bindClass = valueExp.getType(elContext);
            valueExp.setValue(elContext,newValue);
        }
