[QUOTE="laimbeersux, post: 1101126, member: 151561"] [b]PC sequence for creating ringtones[/b] There is a way to create ringtones on PCs that I found about a year ago just before I got my Macbook Pro. After reading this thread I figured I would add that sequence to this thread too. The PC way may have a few more steps but it is super easy after you've done it once. I can't remember where I patched this sequence together from but it has helped tons of PC-using iPhone-owning friends of mine. I wish I could credit where I found the sequence but it was long enough ago that I have no clue where it was. 1. Start iTunes and find the song you want to convert into a ringtone. (It must be an MP3. 2. Right-click the song and choose "Get Info." 3. Click the "Options" tab. 4. Check the "Start Time" and "Stop Time" boxes, then enter times for each (no more than 30 seconds apart, the maximum length for a ringtone.) 5. Click OK, then right click the song again and choose "Create AAC Version." You should immediately see a new 30-second version of the song. 6. Drag that version out of iTunes and into the folder of your choice. 7. Delete the 30-second version from iTunes and undo the start/stop time changes to the original. 8. Open the folder containing the 30-second AAC file that you dragged out of iTunes, then change the file extension from ".m4a" to ".m4r." Double-Click it and it immediately gets added to the iTunes' Ringtone library. [I]How to turn file extension changing on[/I] (Do this either before doing anything, after creating a folder with your ringtones, or at least before step 6 in the above sequence.) 1. find the folder that you dragged the file into from step 6 above. 2. click the dropdown box that says "organize" 3. Click the option that says "folder options" 4. click on the tab that says "view" 5. un-select the option that says "hide extensions for known file types." [/QUOTE]
