I must have a different version of iTunes 8.0.

I have 8.0.1.11 and several of the options in the video do not appear. The step where he says go to Advanced and click Create AAC Version… that is not an option any more it seems.

There is an option that says create iPod or iPhone Version but it is grayed out. This is on a file downloaded from the Amazon Music Store or on an mp3 I ripped myself from a CD.

If I right-click a song there is an option that says Create Ringtone, but when selected it says “You can create iPhone ringtones only from songs purchased from the iTunes Store.” So now things are completely the opposite of the way they were in the CNET video.

Hi!

I had the same problems. I converted “He’s a pirate” like in the video above. In the first try the ringtone had a length of 27 seconds. Everything goes fine. So i wanted to try the same mp3 on the same way with a lenght of 58 seconds. The Ringtone was available in iTunes, but it was not synchronized with my iPhone.

The 27 seconds version works great. Perhaps your ringtone is too long.

God how complicated! You practically need a PhD for this. With my 95 it’s pretty easy: Select the song you want from within your phone.. Press ‘Select’.. Done! lol
