Jacob - Please make sure you have the “Show Ringtones Tab” option checked on your iPhone's home page in iTunes. Without that it wouldn't show up. There are many comments here that mentions the same.

I can't get the "Ringtones" tab, in iTunes. :/ I've converted the MP3 files to ACC (M4a). I have also renamed the files to m4r. But it did not seem to make any difference.. so, I can't just get the Ringtones tab. Please help me out here, I have not come this far before.

In such case save the m4a format file in any local folder, and go to the menu bar and select TOOLS
and select folder option and view and uncheck hide extensions for known file types.

Then you will see the full file name with extension

It does have…it's just not enabled by default…there are some great comments here that tells you how to do that.

By: demogeek

Follow the comments here and they tell you how to make sure to enable the Ringtones folder in iTunes.

Try lessening the length a tiny bit more and see if it helps. I remember of having the same issue when I tried a slightly lengthier duration than the 8 seconds that I have in the demo. Hope it helps.

Well said Debbie…those great comments made it even more useful. Thank you for bringing that up.

Please try the same again and before that I would recommend you read some of the great comments here and that sure would help your issue. Let us know if not.

Jacqueline – don't know which operating system you are using but if it happens to be Windows then you might want to make sure to show the file extensions. Under Windows Explorer “Folder Options” there is a setting of a sort of “Hide extensions for known file types”. You might want to uncheck that option so Windows can show you the file extensions. There are a few great comments here that explains exactly what to do. Hope it helps.

Great guide, but when I get to “Once the file is converted to AAC version it generates a .m4a file. Drag the file to your Desktop (or any other location that you prefer).”, the file JUST has the title, it doesn’t have the .m4a at the end. The file is DEFINITELY being converted to AAC. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

many have said they have trouble trying to get the m4r file into itunes. the trick here is to first delete the shortened m4a file from itunes before adding the m4r. you should then see the tone created in the ringtones tab on the left side of itunes

Great!! It is so easy and it worked for my iphone 4G!! Thank you

A) To change file extention check here:

1. Open a folder or open explorer

2. Click the Layout button (to the left of the Views button) as shown in the picture below

3. Click Folder Options

4. Click the View tab

5. Uncheck Hide extensions for known file types

6. Click OK

B) if you can’t view your “ringtones” folder in itunes –> go to itunes View -> Preferences -> General -> Check “ringtones”

C) once you make the “ACC” file, DRAG IT TO YOUR ITUNES MUSIC LIBRARY RIGTONES FOLDER (itunes > itunes music > ringtones)

Make sure you connect your iphone and check your new rigtone AND SYNC

Good luck,

Nick

Itunes is not letting me shorten the length of my file. I've tried to change the length starting from 9 seconds to 29 seconds, click OK, then it automatically reverts back to the full length of the song. Anyone know what might be going on here??
