Note that there are different ways to create ringtones. In this post, we will show you how to create iPhone ringtones using iTunes.
How to create an iPhone ringtone using a song in iTunes
Step 1: Launch iTunes on your desktop or laptop computer.
Step 2: Pick the song or audio file you want to use from your iTunes library.
Step 3: Right click on the song and select “Get Info.”
In the Get Info window, selection the Options tab and change the Stop and Start Time to read the segment of the song that you want to save as a ringtone. The ringtone length cannot exceed 30 seconds.
If you want to start at the beginning of the song, set the start time to 0:00 and the end time to the number of seconds you want the ringtone to be.
If you want to start at the chorus of a song, play it first to determine what time the chorus starts and then use that number as the Start Time, and no more than 30 seconds after that as the Stop Time. For example, Start Time – 2:15, Stop Time – 2:45.
You have to make sure the check boxes next to the Start and Stop times are checked. This is very important.
