Since I learned how to make a ringtone, I should be able to teach it (fist to five--2 try it... BTW... my five would have been easy, but I'm using LH's fist to five... for LH a 2... for mm a 4).
Try it!!
First choose your song. I made a new one (Just Breathe by Pearl Jam) this morning to make sure I could do it.
Go to File (I'm assuming you're using a Mac.).
Go to Get info.
Change the time... I chose the part of the song I wanted, the chorus.
Click OK.
After you click OK, go to create a new version.
Create an AAC version.
Then go to show in finder (still under file).
Change from m4a to m4r.
It will ask to use the m4r file. Use m4r (r = ringtone).
Next delete the song (the 30 second version... ringtones can only be 30 seconds) from your iTunes library.
You want to delete the song but keep the file.
Finally, go back to finder and double click on the m4r file.
This should make it show up in your tones file.
The next part is where I had problems. You have the ringtone saved... Sync it to your phone as you usually would. The safest way for me is to plug in the phone and merely drag from tones file in iTunes to tones file on my phone.
The website should take you step by step through the process. Now I have two new ring tones (Ave Mary A and Just Breathe).
Oh, now go back to get info and unclick the 30 seconds so your song plays as it should in your music.
