How do I create a ringtone in iTunes 10.2.2?

I have found an article that shows how to create a ringtone in iTunes 9.2 and it does not seem to apply to iTunes 10.2.2
Can I safely download 9.2, create a ringtone in the iTunes Store and not affect my current application?
Thanks for the help,
eAL

I am completely unable to use a purchased "ringtone" as a ringtone because iTunes will not recognize it as such. I have tried the instructions in the above article (numerous times), and found the same instructions all around google. I can NOT move a 30 sec clip I purchased today on iTunes from the music library to the ringtones on my iMac. It is my understanding from hours of researching this problem, that music sold on iTunes from a computer can NOT be used as ringtones because they are not truly ringtones?? Instead, I have to purchase music from the iPhone under the iTunes App > More > Ringtones. Is this correct?? I'm so beyond frustrated. Mac is NEVER this difficult. Why on earth would anyone want to purchase a 30 sec. clip of a song and NOT be able to use it as a ringtone? If this is truly the case then there should be a disclaimer in iTunes stating that fact.
I also discovered while following instructions from another post, that the song I just downloaded today is not under the "purchased" section of my iTunes account, yet it is in my music library. Huh?? How can that be? Is it because I've changed the format from m4a to m4r and it's now different than what I purchased?
I'm so confused and think I may have to resign myself to re-purchasing a lesser liked ringtone from the same song directly from my iPhone.

Hey tskeltner,
You will use GarageBand to create the ringtone and then you will have an option to send it to iTunes. Depending on which version of iTunes you have, the article below will walk you through the entire process.

Select Start/Stop Time: Make sure that the resulting playtime is less then approx 39 sec - OK
Right-click again on that track: Create AAC version
Delete the resulting file from your iTunes library

How Do You Create Artist Separation In iTunes Playlists?

I find that some of the time the same artist will play back to back in my Playlists on iTunes. How do you adjust 'Playlists" to NOT play artists back to back and give the playlist "artist seperation?
Thanks!

Once an item is in your download queue, you cannot stop it.
Let the download complete and then delete the unwanted item.
Or, you can contact iTunes Store support abd ask them to clear your download queue. http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

You have to create a ringtones. Google will find several ways to do this.

I have a Verizon IPhone 4 and i can't figure out how to get my ringtones from an app to my iTunes account, it doesn't have a tab for Ringtones! I have tried unplugging it and checking if would show up but it didn't, how do you enable the ringtone folder?

I have a verizon IPhone and i can't figure out how to get my ringtones from the app to iTunes, my account doesn't have a ringtone section in the liRingtone Folder?brary, how do you enable the ringtone folder?

Edit > Preferences. Select the check box for Ringtones, this will add them to the listing in iTunes.
Not sure that really answers your question though.

How do you create a new account for a family member?

My daughter and I both have Ipods, and want to setup SEPARATE accounts. Itunes 7 worked great, but now when we 'upgraded' to 8, it MERGED all our files. So I thought I had a separate account, but it turns out when I load a new song, it goes into HER Itunes files. She deleted all my info, and I REALLY want a separate account (that sticks).
My songs are still in my directory under "Mikes Itunes", but when I reloaded them into what I thought was a fresh entry, it turns out it went into my daughter's Itunes file too! What is up with Itunes 8? and how can you create a TRUE separate account so I have control over MY songs!?

First, let's make it easier to swap between accounts. In the Accounts pane of System Preferences click on the Login Options (after unlocking the pane). Enable fast user switching. This will put a new menu in the top right of the screen. You can then swap to the other account without having to log out of the current one.
Log into the original account. Select the folder you want access from the other account and choose Get Info from the file menu. There is a section called Sharing & Permissions. You will need to click on the padlock to make changes. Click on the + to add permissions for the other user account by selecting the user account from list that appears. Set the permission for that account to read only. Once you have it listed then choose the "Apply to enclosed items" from the gear menu below the list. This should give you access from the other account to that folder and any folders contained in it.
For iTunes you will want to do this to the Music folder, giving you access to the files below. From within iTunes you can select Add to Library from the file menu, and then select the music from the other account to that account's iTunes library. Once you have set up the new library whoever's library is the original can clean up the library to remove any music they don't want (now that it's in the new account).

How can you create a playlist with music and music video and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?

How can you create a playlist on Ipod touch with music and music video, and play those from same playlist through Apple TV? I can download, create a playlist with both music and music video, stream that through the Apple TV with no problem. The sound and the information show up on the TV, but when it gets to a music video, it only shows the information and "artwork".
I also have a video playlist - videos play fine through the Apple TV, but will not shuffle through all videos - continues to repeat the same one. I have most definitely selected shuffle in both locations - from the playlist and on the ipod video screen while video is playing.

I finally got it... had to sync the photos with the music in iMovie, arrange the voiceover in GarageBand then export to iTunes, and then I was able to put it all together in iMovie and burn in iDVD... had a few glitches along the way but finally finished : )

If the existing playlist is a regular (non-smart) playlist, then you can edit it directly on the iPhone. Just select the playlist and you should see an "Edit" button at the top, above the songs. If you don't see that, then it must be a smart playlist since those can't be edited on the device. Once you tap the Edit button you would then navigate to the song you want to add and press the blue + sign to the right of the song, then press Done when you're finished.
One caveat though, if you auto-sync your iPhone, the changes you make will not be preserved -- the playlist will revert to how it was next time you sync to iTunes. So if you want to edit a playlist on your iPhone and then transfer it to iTunes, you have to create a new (empty) playlist on your iPhone, add the playlist that you wanted to edit to the new playlist, then add or delete more songs to the new playlist. When you auto-sync, the new playlist will transfer to your iTunes library.
But if you manually manage your iPhone, the playlist should remain in its edited state even if you connect to your library (but admittedly its been awhile since I tried manual mode).
