How to make custome iPhone ringtones for free

If you bought an iPhone. You love the phone and all its features, but wish you didn’t have to pay for your songs twice to get a ringtone. There are plenty of songs in your music library, but no way to make ringtones from any of them. Or are there? Actually, with a little bit of trickery (nothing illegal) you can create ringtones from any one of your non-DRM songs in your iTunes library easily and for free. This works on both Mac and Windows PCs.

Follow instruction step by step;

• step 1

  Open iTunes.

• Step 2

  Find the song that you want to make into a ringtone.

• Step 3

  Listen to the song and find the part of it you want to use. The chorus may be a good place to start.

• Step 4

  Write down the start and stop times of the clip.

• Step 5

  Right-click the song and select “Get Info.”

• Step 6

  Click the “Options” tab.

• Step 7

  Type in the start time of your ringtone in the text box next to “Start Time” in the minutes:seconds (i.e. 2:01) format.

• Step 8

  Type in the end time of your ringtone in the text box next to “Stop Time.” Make sure the ringtone is no more than 40 seconds long.

• Step 9

  Click “OK.”

• Step 10

  Right-click your song again and select “Convert Selection to AAC.” Wait for iTunes to convert your song. It will create a duplicate version.

• Step 11

  Right-click the ringtone and select “Delete.”

• Step 12

  Click on the “Keep Files” button.

• Step 13

  Find the file. It’s usually in your User folder under Music > iTunes > iTunes Music and under the band’s name. It will have an extension of “m4a.”

• Step 14

  Replace the “m4a” extension of your ringtone with “m4r”. You can either double-click slowly to rename your file, or right-click and select “Get Info” on a Mac or “Rename” on a Windows PC.

• Step 15

  Click “Use .m4r” or the PC equivalent when the system warns you that the change may affect the use of your file.

• Step 16

  Double-click the ringtone file. ITunes will automatically add it to your ringtones folder in your iTunes Music Library.

• Step 17

  Connect your iPhone and sync your ringtones.
