in itunes, click the song you want to make a ringtone of. go into get info for the song and open up the song options and change the start and stop time of the song to what you want the ringtone to be. make sure you remember the normal start/stop time so the song isn't messed up. than right click the song and click convert selection to ACC and a new file will be created under the original. than delete the song from itunes but keep the file. change the extension of the file to .m4r, the itunes ringtone extension, add to itunes and it will be in the ringtones section of itunes. just add it to your phone.

This worked great, (and i'm using windows). But I am running into a problem. When I add more that one, although it shows it correctly in iTunes under ringtones, its putting duplicates of one file onto the iPhone...so therefore i can only have one editted at a time...did this happen with you as well?

I had that problem at first. I'm not sure what i did to fix it but i think i did a manual sync of ringtones (drag and drop) as apposed to letting iTunes autosync them. I'll look into it when i get back home.

yeah, i figured it out. I had to put them into iTunes, than select the ringers from the iTunes list and drag it into the iPhone...orginally i was just dragging them from the folder the files were in and dropping them directly to the iPhone...

So for some reason, putting them into iTunes first made it work...strange.

How did no one in this thread mention iRinger?

I have several MP3's I converted from a wide variety of sounds and tracks using Wiretap Studio. I finally bought iToner from Amrosia ($15) and THAT is incredibly simple. Drag and drop any list of however many MP3's with the phone plugged in, hit Sync and they're all there. Incredibly simple, and very cost-effective.

I wouldn't say its "cost-effective" if you are paying for something you can do for free. "Easy" and "efficient" are a good choice of words...but certainly not "cost-effective."

I use iRinger.
It can make a ringtones from virtually any audio or video source, add effects, and import to iTunes seamlessly.

Sorry to bump up an old thread (although it looks like someone else already did ) but I just used the audiko site and it was so simple. Took two seconds, no downloading of software needed. Great site!
