Need help to fix a song that I cut to 30 secs for ringtone.  It's now on my phone as 30 secs and I can't fix it.

Hi.
I created a ringtone from a song on my itunes and accidentally did not save the original.  When I synced the phone, the song copied across as 30 secs.  I have tried deleting this song from both iTunes and my phone, resynced, downloaded the song again, resynced.  But the song is still playing as only 30 secs long on my iphone.  (It is playing as the full song on my itunes though.)  Can anyone please help?

DIY Using computer iTunes, follow the steps carefully:
If you are using Windows, make sure you are able to view the file extension.

1. Select a title (.mp3 or .m4a) in your iTunes Music Library
2. Do File > Get Info on selected title (Windows do Edit > Get Info)
3. In the dialog choose Options tab
4. Set Start Time and End Time (no more than 35 secs otherwise won't work)
5. Close dialog.
6. Now control click the title (right click) and choose Create AAC Version
Note: If you don't have Create AAC version, switch in menu File > Preferences...(Windows do Edit > Preferences...) > General > Import Settings... > Import Using: AAC Encoder.
7. When it is done, drag the newly create title to the desktop.
8. Delete the newly create title in iTunes. <-- This step is important
9. Rename the title on your desktop from ringtone.m4a to ringtone.m4r
10. Drag and drop it into iTunes
Now you have a ringtone.
Make sure it is selected in iTunes > Tones for syncing with your new iPhone.

    Go up to the top of your screen on iTunes and click on 'Store'.  Then go down to 'Authorize This Computer'.  That should cover part of it unless you've already authorized a bunch of other computers to use your account.  If that's the case, you'll have to go to one of those computers and click the button just below it to 'deauthorize your account' from that computer.  If you're not able to access the store, check your internet connection to make sure you are connected.  Hope this helps.. good luck!

    It appears the 15" 2.2 ghz isn't worth spending $400 more for, but you get the 1GB Radeon 6750M that has four times the VRAM than the 15" 2.0Ghz model and about 167% more performance. High settings on all current games with over 50 fps.
    If your not into 3D gaming or just light weight, then the 2.0 Ghz (last years performance) will suffice on low-medium settings at about 30 fps.
    The 13" is rather poor as it has integrated graphics. 30 fps on only some games.
    The high res screen is a excellent choice and the anti-glare is great for viewing just about anywhere.
    No messy films to replace at $30-$40 a pop.
    A lot of people bring the glossy screens back once they hear about the anti-glare.

    Here's my 17"
    In my opinion the extra $400 for another 2-3 years of use out of the computer is worth it.
    Quad cores are more than enough for most uses for most people for many years, it's just a slow card is going to make the machine feel slow in rendering graphics in the future.

  • Need help resorting ~ 1,000 songs that defaulted into "90's Music" category

    These songs that I imported from CDs all have the correct genre (Alternative, World, etc.) indicated next to them, but they appear ONLY in the '90's Music category now, and not also in the categories for those individual genres. I'd like to move them into the correct genres, and maybe even delete the '90's Music category altogether to avoid this happening again (since I don't know how or why it did this anyway). I didn't see any options on how to do this in the File or Edit menus. Anyone have any ideas that would ideally allow me to accomplish this move by group/genre vs. by individual song? Thanks very much!
    Vaio PCG-TR2A Windows XP

    the '90s music category is a smart playlist which contains every song with a year between 1990 and 1999, it has nothing to do with genre
    Smart playlists are a really useful feature on iTunes and you can create them from the file menu or by shift (i believe its shift though its alt on the Mac so try that and control too) clicking on the plus in the bottom left, the icon will change so you can do this so try the key first if you see what i mean....
    You can create smart playlists with genre, when you have created one you can choose different options, you can also create them based on other playlists so you can do more advanced combinations...
    PS all your music should be in your library My library at the top. Music can also be in multiple smart playlists too.

  • HT1349 I need help finding an old library that itunes states my ipod is already linked to

    I need help finding an old library that it states my ipod is already linked to.  My computer recently had a terrible virus and needed to be wiped clean.  I had to redownload itunes and I bought several songs.  I want to add them to my old library because I had several cd's that I had uploaded.  Is there a way to find that old library and combine them without having to erase all the songs that are currently on my ipod???  Thanks

    Umm.  If you wiped the hard drive, then all old libraries are gone unless you have them on backup.

  • TS1646 I'v tried many times to update my applications however, my account can't do it because security code for my card is incorrect note that I'm sure my card details are correct completely so i need help to fix it as much as you can plz. Thnks

    Hi
    I'v tried many times to update my applications however, my account can't do it because security code for my card is incorrect note that I'm sure my card details are correct completely so i need help to fix it as much as you can plz. Thnks

    Look, I understand I still need a card attached to the account. The problem is, it won't accept my card because I only have 87 cents in my bank account right now.
    If I had known there would be so much trouble with the iTunes card, I would have just put the cash in my bank account in the morning instead of buying an iTunes card (I didn't expect the banks to be open on Thanksgiving of course).
    Apple will only accept cards that have a balance. The balance is so small in my account that it won't accept it as a valid card.
    I'm going to have to contact Apple anyway to reset the security questions. That's obvious. Your answers were not exactly helpful. You didn't tell me anything I don't already know, but thanks for trying to be helpful.

  • I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!

    I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!

    You mean an image such as a scanned document?
    If that is the case, the file doesn't contain any text for Reader Out Loud to read. In order to fix that, you would need an application such as Adobe Acrobat that does Optical Character Recognition to convert the images to actual text.
    You can also try to export the file as a Word document or something else using ExportPDF which I believe offers OCR and is cheaper than Acrobat.

  • I need help in Fixing my Hp Split x2

    I need help in fixing my hp split x2. I got it with windows 8 but i upgraded to Windows 8.1. sine then I stop accessing my D:/ drive ( 500gb HDD)on which I stored data. Besides, I get DCP watchdog violation Error each time I disconnect the tablet and reconnet it. I also get another error message: DCP_DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE. Can somebody help me out?

    Hi Alsaab73,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your and getting an error message. The HDD that are you using, I would need the model number. Have you looked in the device manager to see if there is a conflict with the driver installed? It might be listed under the USB devices? Have you tried a different port on the Notebook?  Right clicking an updating the driver might be all that is needed.
    As per the description of the issue you get error DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION.
    Is the issue confined to any particular game or a certain function you are choosing on the Notebook?
    The First thing you need to try is disable any firewalls or virus protection and restart the Notebook.
    If that does not helps try these steps from Microsoft.
    Boot the computer using the Windows 8 bootable DVD.
    On the Install Now screen click on Repair your computer.
    You will then see a blue screen and an option to choose.
    Click on Advanced Options and then click on Troubleshoot.
    Click on Automatic Repair and follow the prompted instructions.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

  • IMac froze after accidentally dropping hundreds of jpegs in desktop.......need help to fix.....desktop filled now..thanks

    iMac froze after accidentally dropping hundreds of jpegs in desktop.......need help to fix.....desktop filled now..thanks

    Important: mende's suggestion will remove everything from your Desktop, not just the jpegs. Not good. Do the following instead. Open Terminal in Utilities and copy/paste, then hit return after each. The second will create a folder on the Desktop called "photos." The third command will move all of them into that new  folder, "photos" This will save them. These commands assume you are logged into the account with the troubled Desktop.
    cd ~/Desktop
    mkdir photos
    mv *.jpg photos/
    If you don't care about saving them then the following will delete them. (It is critical that you only use copy/paste.)
    cd ~/Desktop
    rm *.jpg

    Drag/Copy/Paste fonts to this folder.

    when ever i try to download my iPod recovery software, it keeps saying connection timed out. really annoyed and need help to fix it

    - Next try the manual install method of:
    iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
    If the iPod was Disabled, place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
    - Then try on another computer

    How can i retrieve songs that were on my account, when my old computer is now broken to a point of no return!?

    You can restore them from your backup - if you havn't got a backup then you'll need to re-purchase them. Media (music, films, tv shows) can only be downloaded from iTunes once, which is why you are advised to make and maintain backup(s) of your purchased (and any other important) content.
