I have followed instructions on how to create a ringtone from my own music.
I have created the m4r version and saved it to the desk top.
I have deleted the original track.
I have dragged the icon from the desk top to my music folder in itunes.
But it will not go into "Tones". It stays in "Music".
Please can anyone tell me how to get it into "Tones" so I can sync it to my iphone 4s and use it as a ringtone?
Many thanks.

For PC users read this article it will give you exact instructions > http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/how-to/apple/turn-song-on-your-iphone-into-ringtone-s ummary-3622959/
PC users note: You must go to folder options and untick 'hide extensions for known file types' do this to make sure you ARE deleting the file.ext otherwise you won't be renaming the file correctly, instructions to do this here > http://kb.winzip.com/kb/entry/26/
Thank you! This was the tip I needed. Worked like a charm.
that was before the "update"
THAT was the trick! "It will not drag and drop unless you delete the file from iTunes first."
good one! thanks!
What Ever Audio File (Less Than 40') You Have When You Turn The Extension to => .m4r You Can Use It For Ringtone
Right Click To The File => Open With iTunes
Find The File On iTunes "Tones" Categorie
IT'S SUPER SIMPLE!!! JUST MAKE SURE THE RINGTONE IS THE ONLY TRACK SHOWING ON ITUNES!!
1) CREATE YOUR RINGTONE BY CONVERTING TO .aac THEN RENAMING TO .m4r
2) DELETE FROM ITUNES THE ORIGINAL TRACK
3) DOUBLE CLICK ON YOUR NEW .m4r FILE FROM ITS ORIGINAL LOCATION AND IT'LL GET ADDED TO THE TONES FOLDER AUTOMATICALLY
EMAIL ME AT CELLANIME@YAHOO.COM IF YOU NEED HELP! TOOK ME TWO NIGHTS IN A ROW TO FIGURE OUT LOL!! I FEEL YOUR PAIN BROTHERHOOD!!
Try the "Ringtones" app, black with orange music note
I initially tried to use the "Ringtone" app, white app with orange music note, but that just wasn't working. I was thinking about using one of the more complicated methods listed here, but before I tried any of them, they seemed like a lot of work, I downloaded the "Ringtones" app, black with orange music note, and everything worked perfectly. I know it's out of date but DANG it worked well.
Left top change music to tones
