Here’s my step-by-step tutorial on how to create custom ringtones for any iphone/iphone 3G. I simplified this as much as possible, however as it is my first tutorial then please feel free to comment or ask questions. There are other tutorials that explain how to create the ringtones, but none that I’ve found so far that are as simple to understand and follow.

You made something I found difficult very easy, you explained it brilliantly. Many thanks
the ringtone was successfully made into the library..but when i click my iphone icon..and ringtone icon…the synchronizing of “selected ringtone” is not availble!! why is that?
Good man yourself, you show all the finicky things. Great tutorial!
Best tutorial for sure man. Really appreciate it.

Well done man, this is the most simplified and helpful tutorial I could find!
Thank-you your video has most deffinetly been the MOST helpful i never understood how to do it on a vista now it makes sence thanks a ton
Thanks a lot! No more annoying iPhone ringtone!
Also, I am running windows 7 and ITunes 9.02.25
I’ve gotten everything to work. Only problem is ITunes wont let me delete the original for/new clip. When I right click or hit the delete button nothing happens.
very well done thank you
it wont let me use the time that i want i put in 0:40 and then 1:10 and then it ends up giving me the whole 1:10 what do i do
A few people have issues syncing the ringtone to the phone, the only solution really is to try various types of syncing, automatically syncing or manually syncing. As this differs between person to person, depending on settings, the best way is to try a few methods
the best thing for you to do would be to manually add the file/ringtone from the File menu. Remember valid ringtones show up in the “Ringtones” category.
omg im now at the last step.
mine is not working.
okay err, i tried to drag the ringtone from dekstop back to my itunes, it just couldn’t sync.
and also i tried to drag the ringtone to device in itunes, it is there but it doesnt show in my iphone. i have dont it several times but it just couldnt work.
I can’t sync ringtone created like shown on video.
I have done it several times but the itunes dosen’t sync it to my phone.
I also noticed that after I ticked on start and stop time it automaticlly unticks the start time when getting info.
@applewbanana your welcome.
i forgot to click apply on the show file thingy. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!
i’ve done everything you’ve done, but i cant see the “m4a” thing *sigh*
i’ve watched it three times now
(
none of my customized songs shows the m4a thing behind the song
@applewbanana you can’t have followed the tutorial properley, you need to make sure you show extensions for known file types in windows, the tutorial explains.
errr, the song i want as ringtone ‘morning after dark by timbaland’ doesnt have the m4a after the name :S what should i do?
