Purchased song into ringtone

I'm trying to create ringtones from songs I bought through i-tunes and it says the songs "can no longer be made into a ringtone" but some other songs I have purchased work. What's the deal?

Not all songs have been licensed for use as an iphone ringtone by the band/record label.
The songs that currently have a bell icon in the bell/ringtone column (in itunes) should be available as a ringtone - although that can change.

    How do I turn a purchased song into a ringtone without repurchasing the song?

    This isn't possible.
    The song's copyright holder would charge more for it if it was being played on multiple devices at once but overlooks the remote possibility that any given person would be playing the full song on two or more devices at the same time; there's much more chance of that happening if the song is converted into a ringtone, so they charge more.

    There are also a number of apps available. If you do an internet search for something like "iTunes ringtone maker" you should find a number of possibilities such as the following: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ringtones-for-iphone-ringtone/id380908399?mt=8  I've never used an app for that so can't give you any input on which one.

    Thx

    There is no limit to the number of times a specific song can be burned onto a CD. A specific playlist can be burned a maximum of seven times without changing the playlist's contents.

    Not sure what you mean.

  • From my library, how do I upload previous purchased songs into the cloud?

    I have a slew of songs in my library, but I can't figure out how to upload those songs into the iCloud, and yes, they were purchased from the iTunes store. Help!

    Check the ID you are signed in with in Settings>iTunes & App Store.  Any music you purchased with that ID should be available to download from iCloud by opening the iTunes Store app, then tap More>Purchased>Music>Not on This iPhone (iPod, iPad), then tap the iCloud download symbols to download them.  You can also go to Settings>Music, turn on Show All Music, then open the Music app, go to your song list and tap the iCloud download symbols next to purchased songs that are not already on your device. 
    You can only do this with a single ID.  If you have music purchased with a different ID, they will not appear in your purchased list.  Also, after download previous purchases for one ID you cannot download previous purchases from a different ID for 90 days (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627).

  • Anyone can teach me how to convert my MP3 song into Ringtone on my iPhone 5

    Anyone could teach me how to convert my MP3 music in my iPhone 5 into Ringtone?

    You can't do this directly within the device. Your media needs to be in an iTunes library on your computer. See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device if necessary.
    Select your song.
    On the Get Info > Options tab set start and stop times less than 40 seconds apart.
    Under Edit > Preferences > General tab > Import Settings choose AAC Encoder > High Quality 128k.
    Right-click on the song and select Create AAC version.
    Reset the start and stop times on the original track.
    Right-click on the new copy and click Show in Windows Explorer.
    Change the file extension from .m4a to .m4r. (You may need to adjust folder options to see the extensions)
    Move the file into the Automatically Add to iTunes folder.
    Delete the broken entry to the file that you renamed and moved.

  • How to import iTunes purchased song into video with "Muvee autoProducer"?

    Using an iTunes purchased song and also "Muvee autoProducer" for the first time and can't use my iTunes purchased song to import into my video. Following the instructions the song doesn't come up as a MUSICFILE, but it is found by selecting ALLFILES. It is an Audio file (protected). For some reason the Windows Media player symbol appears as the program to open file. I select to add it to my video and an error occurs:
    "The format of the music file that you have selected is not supported."
    5(80040265).
    Have I done something wrong ? Can I change the file format in some way to use ?
    Solution is greatly appreciated THANKS!

    I think I have figured it out. I found Popcorn 3 and Crunch by Roxio which will do the job!
    Thanks everyone!

  • Song into ringtone

    I downloaded the Star Wars song, and later tried to convert into a ringtone---only to be told by itunes that it can no longer be made into a ringtone.
    is there a way to tell if a song from itunes can be made into a ringtone without having to buy it first.

    Eligible songs are indicated with a bell icon next to the song name.

  • I can't convert songs into ringtones

    Yesterday, I had 50 songs that I could convert now I have none. I tried changing Rockstar by Nickelback and Crazy by Gnarls Barkley. Yesterday, they were both convertable, now there not.

    At times on my system the bells disappear. Not the bell column, but the bells that show up in the column indicating that they are ring-tone capable. All I've had to do (even though the bell is not showing up) is right click on one of the songs that I KNOW is ok'd for ring-tones, scroll down to "Create Ringtone" and then iTunes brings up the ringtone creator at the bottom of iTunes. So give that right click a try and see if it helps.
    By the way, you do know don't you that you must purchase the song first, then pay an additional $.99 to make it a ringtone right?

  • Unable to convert purchased songs to ringtones Error (11556)

    Whenever I follow the steps to create a ringtone with songs purchased from itunes store, I get the following error message:
    "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. An unkniown error occurred (11556).
    Make sure your network connection is active and try again"
    Yet I can connect to the iTunes store if I want to check my account or buy songs. What can I do to correct this - I am connecting from Australia.

    Apple should just come out and tell the truth: even though they advertise you can make ringtones out of your downloads in every regional iPhone page (UK, MX, AU, etc.), this feature isn't available anywhere outside US...
    Error 11556 is short for: we haven't solved that copyright issue _just yet_
