Select a song

from your iTunes Music library that you would like to use as a ringtone. Right click the song you have selected. From the popup menu select

Get Info

.

 


  1. From the window that appears select the

Options

tab. Check the box next to

Start Time

and enter a start time for your ringtone. Check the box next to

Stop Time

and enter a stop time for your ringtone. I’d recommend you keep your ringtone at around 30 seconds long.

 


  1. Press the play button to test your ringtone and make sure it sounds okay. If it doesn’t you can go back and modify the start and stop time till it does. Once you are satisfied then Right Click the song and select

Create ACC version

from the popup menu. You will notice that a copy of the song appears in your library. This copy is the shortened song to be used as your ringtone.

 


  1. Before you forget go back into the

original song’s options

and uncheck the Start Time and Stop Time so it will play normally.

 


Drag

the newly created track to your Desktop.

 


  1. With the newly created track still selected in iTunes press the

Delete

key on your keyboard. A popup will appear asking to confirm its removal from the library. Click the Remove button. Another popup will appear asking you what to do with the file. Click the Move to Recycle Bin button.

 


  1. Rename the file you dragged to your desktop from

.m4a to .m4r

. Do this by Right Clicking the file then selecting Rename from popup menu. If a warning popup appears asking to confirm the file name change click the Yes button. 


  1. Once you have renamed the file on your desktop

add it back to iTunes

by double clicking on it. You will notice that the track now appears under the Ringtones category in iTunes
