You can make your own ringtones using iTunes. Listen to the track you want and make note of the start and stop points of the song you want use. It should be no longer than 30 seconds.
[LIST][*]Select the song you want to use
[*]Right click and select 'Get Info'
[*]click the 'Options' tab and input your selected timings in the boxes and make sure these are ticked. Press 'OK'
[*]Then right click the song again and select 'Create AAC version' . Allow iTunes to do it then scroll to the top of the library, you should see your track there.
[*]Now drag and drop the track onto your desktop.
[*]Once on your desktop right click rename ( the file will be a m4a type. Change the 'a' to 'r' so it now says 'm4r') This will change the file type.
[*]Now back in iTunes, click 'File' then select 'Add file to Library'. Select desktop and you should see your ringtone file.
[*]Now it's added back to iTunes, it will be under the ringtone tab. Now you can just drag and drop it to your device.[/LIST]
It sounds long and complicated but once youve done it a couple of times it's a breeze.
