Absolutely brilliant! Thanks very much: certainly an improvement on the ringtones provided on my iphone. Can’t thank you enough: even a computer klutz like me can follow your very clear instructions!

Hi Julia, Is it playing in itunes? you may need to ‘cmd + i’ the file on your desktop and rename it that way. Mac’s hide extensions as default (instructions above are for pc’s) so when you’re renaming it at the moment, you’re calling it file.m4r.m4a!

you should see the icon for it change slightly if it’s renamed correctly

I have a Mac and have managed to follow your directions above (except for file extensions … is that just a PC thing)? I have got up to the part of draging the file to the desktop and deleting the 30 second tune from iTunes. I have renamed it .mr4, but try as I might, I cannot get it to move from the desktop back into iTunes!!! When I double-click on it, all that happens is the 30 second song is played! What am I doing wrong?! Thanks.

I am to please!

Let’s just hope that the upcoming iPhone OS4, iPhone 4 and presumably iTunes X doesn’t mess this all up and stop it from working!

If you spot anything that doesn’t work after mondays announcement let me know!

Hi Samantha, If you’re not seeing either .m4r or .m4a, then you need to change the settings on your PC to show file extensions for known types – you’ve probably missed this step out, it’s explained just after the 2nd image in this post!

Hi there

I might be being really thick but I can’t seems to find Tools in My Documents, I am using Windows 7. Please can you help as I need to be able to do this as the songs aren’t showing the file names.

Many thanks

Hello! I’ve tried to be so patient and follow every step of these instructions but have still failed to get my ringtone.
I have mangaged to get to the stage of having my 30second song, then when i drag to the desktop, the song name stays the same (you said it should end with a .m4a and change it to a .m4r) and it did not end with either, it was just the song name. In the settings it seems the song is still set as a .m4a but will not let me change it.
Im lost!
Any suggestions?
Thanks you muchly…your help so far has been great…i just need to complete that final step!
Cheers
