Don't worry about the cropped song that is still in your library you will clean this up later. Take this short clip and drag it to your desktop to create a copy to work with outside of iTunes. Now you have two songs with the same title in your iTunes library, but you will note that one is shorter. You want to do this even if your song is already in AAC format because this makes a cropped copy of the song. Once the clip is to your satisfaction, on the top menu bar, click File - Convert - Create AAC Version. For example, if xx:15 cuts off the last word of the verse, but xx:16 gets the first word of the next verse, trying ending it at xx:15.5 or even xx:15.559. If the start or stop times are not quite right, adjust them using decimals if necessary to cut the song off exactly where you want it. Now double click on your song in iTunes, and it will play only the portion between the times you selected. Enter the times you noted earlier in the two boxes for the start and stop times. Go to your music, right click on your chosen song, and select Get Info.Ĭlick the Options tab in the Get Info window. Now that you have the song's start and stop times you are ready to make the tone. These don't have to be precise, within a second is fine. Keeping in mind that ringtones have to be 40 seconds or less and are looped, listen to the song and note the times where you would like the tone to start and stop. The only requirement is that the song needs to be in your iTunes library, so import it if you must. The format does not matter because you will be converting the tone to AAC eventually. Next, you will want to choose a song that you want to turn into a ringtone.

The first thing is to be sure iTunes is updated ( Windows / macOS downloads). There are a few things you will want to do before getting started. However, this method should also work in Windows with only minor differences. This guide was written with macOS in mind. While they are mostly easy to use, I have yet to find one that gives me the same precision as using iTunes, so why not just make them from scratch? It is a straightforward process, and after you make a couple of tones, the method becomes a cake walk.

I have tried several different ringtone apps for the iPhone. In fact, Apple banned ringtone maker apps from the App Store until 2010, but now there are numerous ringtone makers available.
