Trying to make ringtones for Iphone 4

I can't find the duplicate version of my shortened song for the ringtone. It used to work for Iphone 3, I don't know what happened. My import settings are set for AAC, I don't know what's wrong. How can I get those settings back? When I click "convert to AAC version" , I can hear the little chime that lets me know the conversion was happening, but it doesn't show the song under the regular song after it's done converting. Any information will be appreciated, thanks.

All depends on how many people are accessing Apple's servers. You'll find slow downs in the next few days at least. Everyone is updating. Personally, I don't do the download and install in iTunes. I just download the new iOS on to my computer. Then once that's done, I'll do the update directly from my computer using the ispw file I just downloaded. Much faster, no worries of server crashes while updating.

Creating ringtone for iphone

Hello,
I created a ringtone for an iphone and cannot get it to the ringtones on the phone. IF this is a Garageband issue can someone please help?
I created the file and saved to my desktop. (The phone I want the ringtone on is not my phone so I could not "share" with my itunes) I was able to send this file to the person that needs it and was able to download to their itunes. I then was able to move it to the iphone ringtones on the phone when it is sync'd to itunes. But, when I go looking for it on the phone, I can only find it on the ipod part of phone.
Did i do something wrong in Garageband or do I need to take this to iphone forum?
Thanks
Jim

You don't need to move it to the iphone ringtones , you can directly Click "Share" on the menu bar and select "Send Ringtone to iTunes".

You know, you can create ringtones for iPhone in iTunes. I can't seem to find my duplicate version of the song (the song in so many seconds ). They tell you to do the AAC conversion and click okay and you should see a duplicate of the song underneath. If you look up "How to make ringtones for iphone" in google, you'll understand what I'm saying. It's fairly easy. I just can't find my converted version.

Can't create Ringtone for iPhone

everytime I click on the ringtone symbol next to the song I want, it says that I need to accept the iTunes Store Terms of Service and that by clicking 'OK' it will direct me to that. Thing is, I've already accepted that and when I click OK, it does nothing. It's becoming a real pain..any ideas?

I sent iTunes support a note about that and although they didn't answer my question directly, they got me around it. For what's worth, it did work; however, now I have a new problem. Long story short, don't create more than one ring tone for now. I'll post my crap about that momentarily...
Here's what they wrote:
First I want you to try to create a ringtone with the following steps:
1) If you haven't already, upgrade to the latest version of iTunes, which is available free of charge on the iTunes website:
http://www.itunes.com/download
2) Open iTunes, access the iTunes Store, and look at a few songs. A bell icon next to a song indicates that you can make a ringtone from the song. The bell icon does not mean that the song itself is a ringtone. If you do not see any bell icons, choose View > View Options, select the Ringtone checkbox, and click OK. A ringtone column will appear and any eligible songs will have bells next to them. Purchase any ringtone-eligible song you like.
3) Now click Purchased in the list on the left. If you do not see any bell icons, choose View > View Options, select the Ringtone checkbox, and click OK.
4) Click the bell next to a song to begin making a ringtone. The ringtone editor will appear at the bottom of the iTunes window.
5) Adjust the highlighted area to choose the part of the song (up to 30 seconds) you want to use as your ringtone. You can also choose to fade in or out the audio by clicking the checkboxes in the highlighted area.
6) Select a "Looping" length, which will set the gap between each ring. Click Preview to hear your ringtone before purchasing. Once you're satisfied with your ringtone, click Buy. Your iTunes Store account will be charged 99 cents plus any applicable taxes. Any song credits or video credits that may be on your account will not be used toward the purchase.
7) Your ringtone will appear in your iTunes library Ringtones playlist on the left side of the iTunes window.
8) To sync the ringtone to your iPhone, connect your iPhone to your computer. In iTunes, select your iPhone on the left and click Sync. iTunes will automatically sync any ringtones you create. To sync specific ringtones, with the iPhone selected on the left, click the Ringtones tab, choose Selected ringtones, and click Apply. Check the ringtones you want to sync and click Sync.
Please note that any ringtones you have previously synced to your iPhone will be replaced with the ringtones that you are currently syncing from your authorized iTunes library.
To set a ringtone as your default ringtone, go to the Home screen on your iPhone. Tap the Settings icon, then tap Sounds. Tap Ringtone, then choose a ringtone. This will become your default ringtone.
To assign a ringtone to a specific contact, go to the Home screen on your iPhone. Tap the the Phone icon, then go to your Contacts. Choose a contact, then tap Ringtone and choose the ringtone. When that contact calls, you will hear that ringtone.
Please note that iTunes creates ringtones for iPhone only, and the ringtones you create with your iTunes Store account may not be transferred to other accounts. Also note that even if you create a ringtone from iTunes Plus (DRM-free) content, the purchased ringtone will include DRM-protection.

Itunes hangs when trying to uncheck encryption for iphone backup.

Itunes hangs when trying to uncheck encryption for iPhone backup. The iTunes software becomes unusable and unresponsive after entering correct password (only set up today) All i want to do is backup my iPhone before trying update to the latest ios. I have tried uninstalling all Apple software and re-installing, all unsuccessfully - still have the same problem! Essentially i have to use ctr+alt+del to even close the iTunes program, so I'm assuming there must be some sort of corruption with the encryption / password setup - neither of which have been used at all, all previous backups are on iCloud and don't have encryption. I obviously don't want to attempt a backup with these sort of issues occurring as i don't think i could trust it. Can anyone suggest a way to fix the problem, Ive tried googling all afternoon without any success - most answers I can find relate to people who have lost their passwords but don't have the software issues i am having.

Further to the issue - i thought I'd try and run an encrypted backup for fun (since that's the only option available atm) and the backup hangs as well - in fact it doesn't even technically start other than saying its backing up. The progress bar never moves at all?

These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Use the steps to troubleshoot security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See the steps under the heading "Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store." If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

Can you make custom ringtone for iPhone 4 w/o using iTunes?

My computer crashed and I had to redownload iTunes and all my music the other day. I plugged my iPhone 4 in to put a custom ringtone I made in iTunes on it and it says it wants to "erase and sync" my phone since it was connected to my old iTunes. Is there a way to fix this or is there a way to make a new custom ringtone for my iphone without using iTunes?

New stock ringtones for iPhone?

Does anyone know if there is a web app. or download for new stock ringtones for the iPhone? Not sound effects(like the ones that come on new iPhones) or musical tones. Just plain old standard cell phone ringtones. Such as the ringtone heard in the first TV commercial for the iPhone.

Have a look at these.
http://homepage.mac.com/mrdeighton/filechute/Apple%20Ringtone.m4r
http://homepage.mac.com/mrdeighton/filechute/iPhone%20Ringtones.zip
Just click on the links and they'll download automatically. The first one is my approximation of the ringtone used on the iPhone add the others are various ringtones from other makes of mobile. I'll be taking these of my iDisk soon so get em quick.

Ringtones for IPHONE

How do I get ringtones for my Iphone. I tried using the Itunes store, but the ringtones option will not work for Canada. I've tried using the garage band to create a ringtone, but I can't seem to figure it out. Any advise?

Open up iTunes and garage band drag a song from itunes
into the garage band window it will show the song in the top of garage band next set the desired length and portion of the song you want to use as the ringtone (at the bottom center is a button called cycle region click that) a yellow bar appears at the top use that bar to set the length and portion of song you want You can play back and check what you've done using the play button in the center. When you are ready go to (share/send ringtone to iTunes) then just sync your phone

Why do they make apps for iPhone and dont make matching apps for the mac?

So I lovvvvveeee my MacBook Pro! I have wanted one for many years and finally got to get it. I have also been a iPhone user for many years, sense the 2nd. one came out. I have a huge issue though! I love all the different types of apps that they both have. I just dont get why it is that you can use a app for the iPhone that doesn't crossover to my Mac. That is so dumb! If they make it for one product say the iPohne then they should make it for all of them! Why don't they do so?????

Hi Jenn,
I see you already had a discussion about this and its really terrible that newsstand isnt there, but i thought I might share a few apps that do exist on both ios and mac in order to sync the two or atleast make your iphone a bit more of a sidekick to your mac or viceversa as I faced the same problems (some of them are stock apple apps but they are the best solution in my opinion).
Calendar: Use the normal reminders and calendar apps on the iphone and mac, they do a neat job syncing up
Browser: Chrome, you do need to have a gmail account for this but icloud for safari isnt as good as chromes syncing for your bookmarks and open tabs and saved passwords.
To Do lists: Wunderlist/Producteev, I suggest two here because both are excellent with the former more aesthetically appealing but the latter allowing for more functionality
Mail: Mail for Mac is generally good, but the syncing here is achieved by setting up as IMAP so make sure you always setup all your accounts as IMAP.
Notes: Dashnote, the stock notes on Mac are a bit inaccessible at times and you often lose them, so i suggest using dashnote, please note that dashnote is a widget in the dashboard on the mac and not a dedicated program but it is an app on ios
Music: Stream to me / itunes match, both of these are paid services but they allow you to share your music across both the iphone and the mac and they seem to be worth it for the price
News articles and interesting weblinks: Pocket, not a lot to say except for that its nice
Storage, and arguably a good way to read pdfs and docs on your iphone: google drive/skydrive
Messaging: Apple messages, skype
There are many more apps but these are just the ones i know and use. Hope you find some of these apps handy.

How to make mp4 for iPhone & PC?

Trying to create files for the iPhone that a PC (Mac or Windows)users can also open and view to review rough cuts. I can create a M4v file that plays on the iphone, but whenever I try a .mp4 or .mov with H.264 compression it says file type unsupported. I worry that windows users might not be able to open an M4v file without itunes installed.
Any help would be great, this is really stumping me.
Thanks,
Adam

I've had the same issue, and I think I found a solution. I'm trying to output one file that I can use for video podcasts, Flash players, web (pc/mac) and upload to youtube.
I found that if you use quicktime to export your uncompressed video to iPhone, and then change the .m4v suffix to .mp4, the video will successfully sync to your iPod Touch, play on the iPod Touch in Safari, and play in a Flash Player like the JWPlayer which means that it will play on a Windows machine without Quicktime (I tested).
This is great for me, maybe it will help you too. Best of luck.
