Plz someone help I made custom ringtones and when I try to put them in my iPhone 4 it hey appear gray on iTunes and won't go on my phone and I tried syncing it don't help what do I do???!!!
iPhone 4, iOS 5.1.1
Explain how did you make your ringtone? Are they each less than 40secs and m4r format?
I made with a iPhone ringtone maker and yes its under 40 seconds
R U referring to Xilisoft iPhone Ringtone Maker?
Here is their FAQ on your problem:
Q12:I have made ringtones with your program and transferred them to iTunes successfully, but failed to export them to my iPhone. Why?
A: Maybe your customized ringtone is longer than 30's while iTunes only supports to transfer ringtones in 30's. Actually, our program will help you add ringtones to iPhone directly after creating without any length limitation. Please just connect your iPhone to PC, check 'Add to iPhone' and keep 'Add to iTunes' unchecked before ringtone making.
I oringally use Iringer but it gave me a hard time so I used a site called audiko.net and still they appear gray any program does this to me :/
The ringtone file format is m4r. You can create ringtone from any of your music file in your iTunes Music library.
Follow steps as follow:
1. Right mouse click the song in music library you want to create ringtone and choose “Get Info”
2. Choose “Option” Tab, Check “Start Time” n Stop Time” of the track you want to make into ringtone and put in your start time and end time (Max 40 secs duration), then click OK
3. Right mouse click the music file again and choose “Create AAC Version”
4. You will see a copy of song with same name appeared but with 40sec duration only. Now drag the song onto your desktop and you will see the name is now xxxxxx.m4a.
5. Change the file extension m4a into m4r from the desktop
6. Delete the 40sec m4a file from the music library (You must do this step or Itune will not accept your new m4r file).
7. *Important - Now uncheck the start n stop time of the original song so that you can play back full length.
8. Now, drag the m4r file from desktop to Library
9. Click onto the Tones under Library, and you find you ringone file.
Note: Just in case you cannot "Create AAC version" from Step 3, go to top menu, click "Edit", "Preference". Under "general" Tab, click "Import Settings", make sure under Import Using that "AAC Encoder" is selected.
Once you have ringtones in Tones library, you can sync ringtones over by connecting your phone to PC, select iPhone under Devices on iTunes left Pane, then go to 'Tones' tab and check SYNC TONES as well as the ringtones. Click the SYNC button on the lower right window.
