Using my ipod tunes for ring tones

I have just purchased a iphone 3g and have transferred my tracks over to it no problem. I cannot seem to find out how to set one up in my iphone to use as a ring-tone i have tried all settings but cannot find out how to do it.

You cannot select them from the music on the iPhone. You must first make them ringtones (less than 40 seconds, saved as .m4r files), have them in the Ringtones section of your iTunes library, and sync them to the iPhone.

Note that ringtones can be purchased from the iTunes Music Store, but only in the USA (due to record label licensing restrictions).

    How do I set up and use the TV tuner for an ENVY 23 TouchSmart?

    Hello LindaLamb:
    First thing is connect your coex TV Anti cable to your computer the end connector looks like a bolt. Then open up Windows Media Center go down the list to live tv and follow and fill in your information with wizard . If your computer doesn't have an built in TV Tunner then you will need to purchase an USB TV tunner. http://www.bing.com/shopping/search?q=usb+tv+tunne​r&qpvt=usb+tv+tunner&FORM=HURE . frrw

  • My daughter has not used her ipod touch for 16 months and has forgotten her passcode.  restore factory settings keeps failing due to a software update failure!

    my daughter has not used her ipod touch for 16 months and has forgotten her passcode.  restore factory settings keeps failing due to a software update failure!
    how can i get this ipod reset.  She now has an iphone so this is going to be used by someone else in the family and should be simple to do but itunes just keeps booting it out even though it recognises that it was previously connected to our itunes account as all of the children were on my account

    That has nothing to do with an update server. Do the following:
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:                         
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
      If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes

  • How can i use my music as a ringing tone??

    how can i use my music as a ringing tone??

    I came across a GREAT program: iRinger.net. It's a free download and really easy (and Fun) to use!
    I recommend watching the Instructional Video on the homepage that shows you exactly how to use it. Basically, you upload a song to the program, edit any portion of it that you like to a 40 second or less tone, then export it to iTunes. When you sync your phone w/ iTunes, it gets saved along with the rest of your ringtones. I had a blast last night creating about a dozen or so!

  • HT5538 Broke my iPhone so i want to use my iPod touch for imessaging but my imessages wont send

    I broke my iPhone and I would like to use my iPod to send iMessages, except everytime i try and send a message they won't deliver. My iPhone and iPod accounts are linked.... so not sure why this is happening. I went into messages settings and made sure my send & recieve was correct and it is. someone help please!!

    Do the recipients have an iPhone, iPod touch or iPad with the Messages app and are yo calling the email address or phone number they set up for Messages?
    An iPod can only Message to another iOS device with Messages.
    Otherwise

    I want to use my iPOD Touch only for music.  How do I delete my contact and calendar entires?

    Attach it to your computer, open iTunes, and deselect syncing contacts and calendars. Syncing your iPod again with the mac will delete the unneeded content from the iPod.

  • Which apps are good ones for ring tones?

    I am looking for a good app that has some good ring tones already made up so I don't have to make my own up. I guess I don't want to take the time to make my own up.

    RMakerPro is a good one... it requires you to make your own, but you can make ringtones out of songs you already have in your iTunes library or Voice Memos.
    If you don't want to make your own I would just download them from the iTunes Store.
