How to set songs from music as ringtones for contacts

How do I set songs from my music that is on the phone as ringtones for different contacts?

Songs and ringtones have different formats.  They are not interchangeable.  You would have to convert a song into a ringtone.
If you have a Mac, you could use the GarageBand app to do that.  If you have a PC, there are apps to do the conversion, but I cannot name one.

    You have to create a ringtone from your song using iTunes, then sync it to your phone.  See http://cnettv.cnet.com/create-free-ringtones-itunes-10/9742-1_53-50093086.html.

  • How to Set "delete from hub and server" for each account

    How can I set "delete from hub and server" differently for each account?
    I have 3 emails (2 shared, 1 personal).
    the personal is a 'hotmail' account which has device set to 'sync email', 'push', and 'Use SSL'.
    it will only sync one way (from desktop to device).
    I cannot set the global setting on the device to "delete from Hub and server" without affecting all accounts.
    I do not want to have to confirm delete on every item.
    previous to the 10.3 update this was not an issue.
    am i missing something? or is this another step backwards?

    The only other way would be to set it to prompt every time you get an email. Yeah, I know that defeats the purpose.. I guess in this aspect it is a step back

  • How do I move a song from Music to Tones to make it my ringtone?

    In my Itunes Library, how do I move a song from Music to Tones so I can make it my ringtone on my iphone

    Right mouse click the song in music library you want to create ringtone and choose “Get Info”
    Choose “Option” Tab, Check “Start Time” & Stop Time” of the track you want to make into ringtone and put in your start time and end time (Max 40 secs duration), then click OK
    Right mouse click the mp3 again and choose “Create AAC Version”
    You will see a copy of song with same name appeared but with 40sec duration only. Now drag the song onto your desktop and you will see the name is now xxxxxx.m4a.
    Change the file extension m4a into m4r from the desktop
    Delete the 40sec m4a file from the music library (You must do this step or Itune will not accept your new m4r file).
    *Important - Now uncheck the start & stop time of the original song so that you can play back full length.
    Now, drag the m4r file from desktop to Library
    Click onto the Tones under Library, and you find you ringone file.
    Note: Just in case you cannot "Create AAC version" from Step 3, go to top menu, click "Edit", "Preference". Under "general" Tab, click "Import Settings", make sure under Import Using that "AAC Encoder" is selected.

  • How do I manually drag and drop songs from music library to iPhone 4 using iTunes 11?

    How do I manually drag and drop songs from music library to iPhone using iTunes 11?

    If you manually manage music... on iTunes 11, go to the top left corner and there will be a pull down bar. Click "show menu bar". From there, go to view, then show sidebar. Magically, it looks like the previous versions of iTunes. Took me 3 hours of trial and error and searching through forums to figure out. Tried calling Apple to have them walk me through it and they said they wouldn't help me since I don't have Apple Care. Whatever. Hope this helps!!

  • How to manually drag and drop songs from music library to iPod Shuffle using iTunes 11?

    In iTunes 10, it's simple to just drag and drop a few songs manually from the library/playlist to the Shuffle.  In iTunes 11, Shuffle has its own window.  How do you manually drag and drop songs from music library/playlist to iPod Shuffle using iTunes 11?

    How to transfer songs from one iPad to another iPad using iTunes?

    You can't without a third party app. If you didn't purchase the Music with your Apple ID or if the music was imported from CD's on your friends iTunes library, syncing will not work ....nor will transferring purchases.
    Look at this app .... TouchCopy

    You should be able to copy iTunes purchases from the phone to your Mac's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. For music purchased from other sites and/or copied from other sites, then if you haven't got a copy of them on a backup then you will need to find a third-party program that can copy them off the phone.

  • Hi all - any idea how to download songs from an old AOL iTunes account - have updated to Apple ID which is fine for new songs but didn't realise this wouldn't include the old songs.  Have a 1st gen ipod with the original purchases on if that helps

    ....... is there a way for me to get my old music library (which was controlled by my dad's apple ID) onto my new mac, but from that point on, start using my own apple ID for purchases?........
    Yes, once the content is in iTunes on your computer, just click it to play and authorise your computer to play it by entering your Dad's ID and password.
    Log into your own account and start purchasing your own content which will then be added to the existing content.
