      Safaa Al-Hayali how can i change the ringtone?or delete and change the song

  • @shunpo7745
    @shunpo7745 5 років тому +21

    Okay here are the answers to all problems: (cause i had them all)
    1. If "Create AAC version" is greyed out that's because you are trying to convert it from your device "Music" page. You must convert it from Library "Songs" page.
    2. If drag and drop isn't working you have to check "Manually manage music and videos" in Summary page (little phone icon). This can delete all iTunes content if you didn't update your stuff on iTunes so watch out.
    3. If drag and drop still isn't working you have to authorize your PC. >> Account/Authorizations/Authorize this computer.
    4. If your your mp3 is too short, download audacity. Open it and click File/Open and find your file. Then click on track and CTRL + A, click on Effects/Repeat and follow their steps later.
    I think you should pin this comment cause everyone is having the same problems and this is very easily explained..

    CTRL + C(copy) the .m4r file then CTRL+V(paste it) in the Tones section of the Device menu...That worked for me when I couldn't drag and drop.!!

    Thank you so much for this video! I'm not sure why Apple has to make simple processes so complicated, and I don't want to spend money on a song I already downloaded years ago just to make it my ringtone. I'm appreciate your willingness to show us how to do it without spending any money, and I'm grateful you decided to make an updated video. Thank you!

    If you are having problems dragging and dropping the m4r file into tones; go to "account" in itunes, then to "authorization", followed by, "authorize this computer". Worked like a charm for me.

  • @hazelnut3889
    @hazelnut3889 5 років тому

    After 3 hours of trying finally its working!! You wanna know why it is not working before?? Even after trying for numerous time?? It becuz your song must be exactly 30 seconds!! It doesnt working if lesser than that!! Damn im so proud of myself somehow~ I dont have to pay for a song that i already have in my playlist thank god.. Thanks bro!! Really appreciate it!! Btw its 4 in the morning here.. If only i was study hard for my exam as much as i eager to put my fav song as ringtone on my iphone.. only god knows what i could achieve X'P

  • @anselally4408

    I had the same problem where i cant drop it to the tones, but i figured it out , go to your summary listed in settings , scroll down into the options and mark : Convert higher bit rate songs to : choose 192 kbps AAC if your song file is 192 kbps . you can check from "song info" in itunes then press "file" . press sync when you are done , now go to tones and press sync again , finally you can drop your song!

    I followed your here from the first version of this method. I bought a new iPhone and It still works. However, patience is the most important for anyone and after listening to your steps carefully, we will accomplish. As long as the iTunes is working, the phone software is up-to-date, it's a go. How did you understand all this, may I ask?

I did this with my phone a few weeks ago and it worked but I’m doing it with someone’s phone who isn’t synced to my iTunes will that matter? Also I just kind of said screw it and synced but it still isn’t letting me add the tone
    Edit: yooo got it fixed, I did the whole process over step by step and didn’t rush. It went through fine just like the first time. Thanks man

    Is there any way of adjusting the volume on the ringtone prior to putting it on the iPhone?? I tried the Volume Adjust under Options (below the time) but it seems like that did nothing.... it sounds like my custom ringtones are louder than the stock ones.... I have to put my ringer volume at about 1/2 to have it where it's not blasting.
