On iTunes I paid for Beatles songs that were labelled as ringtones. I changed the extension to .m4r on a couple but they are too long to be used as ringtones. How do I take a chunk of a song and convert it (shorten it) suitably to be used as a ringtone? I am using a Mac computer.
Did you rename the file to something.m4r?
It is an m4a. How do I convert it to an m4r?
I just renamed it and it worked! Thanks so much.

Before you add the file back to iTunes, change the filename to something.m4r.
See the first response on page 1 of this thread. (just responding so others with similar issue may see how to do it)
i have copied my ringtone to the desktop and deleted from itunes,i also moved it from desktop back to the itunes library but its still not showing on tones,i even rename it from m4a to m4r..what do i do please?
Hi Chris, I tried following the steps you gave to make myself a ringtone in the newest version of iTunes, but iTunes won't let me convert the song I want to as ANY type of file out of iTunes. When I try to do this, I get a message that says "This song could not be converted because protected files cannot be converted to other formats."
Do you have any suggestions as to what I can do to solve this problem? Thanks!
how can be in itunes 12.4?

Great, glad you got it fixed. I was looking for a screenshot of those options but then I convinced myself you'd already done those steps.

Did you also choose all tones, or selected tones and then select the tone you wanted to add?
