iPhone Ring Tones

I recently got an iPhone, and was not happy to find iTunes in the UK don't support ring tones.

After much investigation, I finally found a way to get Jonathan Coulton songs on my iPhone as ring tones on the PC for iTunes version 7.6.

1. Open your music file in your sound editor (e.g. Audacity), and crop it down to 40 seconds or less, if not already, then save.
2. Convert the file to an mp4 (using dvdvideosoft - video to iphone mp4 converter, yes video! - http://www.dvdvideosoft.com/products/dvd/Free-Video-to-iPhone-Converter.htm)
3. Rename the file with an m4r extension (make sure you first uncheck “hide extensions of known file types� in tools -> folder options -> view, or in Vista, Organise -> Folder and Search Options -> View Tab -> Untick Hide extensions for known types)
4. Drag the m4r file to your iTunes Ringtones window

Or you can download these and simply drag them to the ring tones window of iTunes:

• Code Monkey (Start of Song)
• Code Money (Chorus)
• Re: Your Brains (Chorus)
• Still Alive (Duet Version)
