   Following are the instructions on how to make custom i phone ringtones:

   Open iTunes.

   Find the song that you want to make into a ringtone.

    

   Listen to the song and find the part of it you want to use. The chorus may be a good place to start.

   
   Write down the start and stop times of the clip.

    

   Right-click the song and select "Get Info."

    

   Click the "Options" tab.

    

   Type in the start time of your ringtone in the text box next to "Start Time" in the minutes:seconds (i.e., 2:01) format.

   
   Type in the end time of your ringtone in the text box next to "Stop Time." Make sure the ringtone is no more than 40 seconds long.

   
   Click "OK."

   
   Right-click your song again and select "Convert Selection to AAC." Wait for iTunes to convert your song. It will create a duplicate version.

   Right-click the ringtone and select "Delete."

   Click on the "Keep Files" button.

   
   Find the file. It's usually in your User folder under "Music > iTunes > iTunes Music" and under the band's name. It will have an extension of m4a.

   
   Replace the m4a extension of your ringtone with m4r. You can either double-click slowly to rename your file, or right-click and select "Get Info" on a Mac or "Rename" on a Windows PC.

   
   Click "Use .m4r" or the PC equivalent when the system warns you that the change may affect the use of your file.

   
   Double-click the ringtone file. ITunes will automatically add it to your ringtones folder in your iTunes Music Library.

    

   Connect your iPhone and sync your ringtones.
