I just created a ringtone using the latest version of Itunes and running vista. What I did is I created a full length ACC version of the song I want to convert to a ringtone, then I changed the start and stop time on the ACC version of the song, then created another ACC version of the song, but this time it was only 39 seconds, that should be your limit if not it would not sync. Then the 39 seconds of the song can be dragged to your desktop where you can change the file name from m4a to m4r. Delete the 2 ACC version songs from your Itunes, then double click on the m4r version of the song that you dragged to your desktop and it should start playing and at the same time added to your ringtones’ folder. Sync your phone and viola!!!

you MUST MUST MUST Show file extensions!!!

If you try to rename it by right click+ “rename” it WONT work.
You MUST Show the file extension and change it THAT way.

I tried for over an hour and I ALMOST gave up until I camt to THIS website and saw that bit of info..

Now it works

I am using ITUNES 8 and I have only purchased my IPHONE 3GS YESTERDAY (november 4th 2009) so it DOES work with all the latest software / hardware…

*IF and ONLY IF you SHOW FILE EXTENSIONS*

“You all have to remember one thing, ring tone timing should not exceed more then 30 seconds only then it will sync with your iphone..
It works in all the model of iphone’s, I did for my friends….. It works gr8…. lol !!”

Thanks man, this did the trick for me. Windows XP SP3 and iTunes 9.0.18
