how do i make a song on my iphone a ringtone for a contact

Songs and ringtones are not interchangeable.  A song needs to be converted to a ringtone.
If you have a Mac, you can do that conversion using GarageBand.  See GarageBand's help for details.  If you have a Windows computer, there are third party apps that do the conversion, but I don't know any details.

    I got new iPhone 5 can't figure out how to make one of the songs from my music playlist a ringtone

    There are many apps in the App Store, which you can download (many are free) that will let you take a song on your phone and turn it into a ringtone.  Virtually all of them will require that once you've made the clip, you do something like email it to yourself, then connect your phone to your computer, save it iTunes, then sync it to your ringtones library on your phone.  Go to the App Store and type in Ringtone.  Lot's of options will appear.

    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.

  • How can i make my songs playable?

    since i updated to ios 5, i lost all my songs, even though i clicked the "update" not "restore" now i gotta start all over again, but this time when i tried to put some songs on there it showed up as this i dont know what that gray area means, im thinking it was the iCloud but i already chose to put backup on my computer, instead, then when i also checked on my ipod touch, nothing was there. so how can i make my songs playable offline?

    i figured this out, you have to go to settings > general > itunes wifi sync OR when you're plugged in with itunes you have to check "sync with this ipod over wifi" so that way, when you try to transfer your files, it goes back to black mode instead of gray.. i know, its kinda dumb.. idk why they make things hard for us to figure it out. but thats how it works.. hope that helps

    How do i make a song I purchased my ringtone

    This how to make ring tones for your iPhone:
    Choose the desire song from you library
    Do secondary click to your song (right click for PC)
    Click "Get Info"
    Go to Options tab
    Set Start Time and Stop Time, some iOS only allowed 30 sec length for one ringtones, then click OK
    Do secondary click (right click for PC) to your selected song
    Clik "Create AAC Version", new song from your selected will added to your library (short one)

    Open the ring tones in the Tones folder of your library than drag it to your iPhone. And your iPhone also would be automatically added "Tones" folder.
    Last but not least, set the ring tone in your iPhone under the "Setting-Sound"

  • How do I make a song a ringtone?

    How do I make a songa  ringtone?

    There's no point at all to getting a ringtone making app when you can do the entire operation in iTunes itself. All you'd be doing is downloading yet another app to take up more storage space on your phone to do a basic function that you can do FREE OF CHARGE in iTunes.
    If you're smart, you're sync'ing your phone with iTunes periodically to back up your apps anyway so you can just put the ringtones on your phone after making them in iTunes.
    Just watch the YouTube video I linked above and save your storage space and money (some cost money, some don't) by not wasting it on a silly ringtone app.

    My computer was acting up so i had to restore it and i lost everything. how do i get the songs back that i already paid for?

    The easiest way to get back missing items?  Restore your whole hard drive with all your irreplaceable things like photos in about 20 minutes from the backup clone you make on a regular basis.

  • How do i sync the songs from my iphone 4 to my laptop

    how do i sync the songs from my iphone 4 to my laptop it will sync photos and apps but wont sync songs i have bought

    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.
    The sync is one way - computer iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases:  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old comptuer, to your new one.
