How to Use iPhone Music as a Ringtone: How to Use iTunes
With the help of iTunes, you have the option to set your favorite music or other sounds as a ringtone on iPhone.
First, open iTunes on your computer. Next, select the desired song from your music library and right-click on it. In the context menu, select “Information“. A new window will open in which different tabs will be displayed.
Navigate to the Options tab. Here you can set the start or end time of the song. This is useful if you only want to use certain passages of the song as your ringtone. Confirm the selection with “OK”.
Go back to your music library overview and search for your edited song using the search function within iTunes (Ctrl + F). As soon as the shortened song has been found, mark it again with a right-click in the menu item “Create AAC version“.
Then drag and drop the new version from your computer’s Explorer panel directly into your “Tones” folder under the “Device Management” option at the bottom left. Depending on the computer system, the designations may differ.
Connect your iPhone using the included USB cable with the computer and synchronize it. After successful synchronization, you can find your individual ringtone among the tones in your settings on your iPhone.
