How to make iPhone ringtones from MP3s

This is easy as pie. With the below steps, you can take any MP3 and make it into a ringtone for your iPhone.

• Grab the MP3 you want to turn into a ringtone and using Audacity turn it into an MP3 that is less then 30 seconds in length.
• Drag the newly shortened file into iTunes
• Find it in iTunes, right click on it and choose "Convert to AAC". It will make another version of the song.
• Find that song in your iTunes folder library (probably c:/..../My Documents/My Music/iTunes) and rename if from .m4a to m4r. In iTunes, delete the m4a that you made.
• In iTunes, go to "file" then "add file to library" and select the newly renamed m4r that you made in the step above
• Now you can sync with your iPhone and you will have a new ringtone to select.
