Apple relents, sanctions custom ringtones!
tuaw.com — Apple has sneaked out the ability to make (free) custom ringtones, courtesy of GarageBand 4.1.1.

- funnyboy88, on 12/14/2007, -4/+7This is wonderful news. I've already used Garageband to make my current ringtones using the rename to .m4r trick, so it's nice to know the ringtones I've created won't be lost in a future software update!
- tbenathan, on 12/14/2007, -3/+98Everyone's happy about making free ringtones, but who's going to take care of the poor studios?
Good riddance, absurd fees.- phoomp, on 12/14/2007, -0/+5The poor studios? Think of the artists!
oh .. wait - desqjockey, on 12/14/2007, -0/+5But this is a $400B market in ten years! And here I was focusing on putting together a ring-tone band rather than making real music. Well, there will always be Motorola. They just dont give a crap what their users want.
- johnpaul191, on 12/14/2007, -0/+3Verizon still has your back. at $1.99 per polyphonic midi rightone, and they eventually expire, you may do better than selling singles through iTMS. you also don't need a stupid band to split the profits with.
- Dragular, on 12/14/2007, -2/+4What's with the Motorola gripe there? I've been using my Razr for about a year and using home-made custom ringtones from day one. Yeah it's easier to do it if you pay for their software, but it's still possible without modifying the phone without buying anything.
- DerekJ212, on 12/14/2007, -0/+2The gripe isn't really with Motorola so much as with Verizon for disallowing anything useful from staying in the phone. I'm sure there is even a method to load ringtones on Verizon phones, but the hassle is far more than its worth.
- phoomp, on 12/14/2007, -0/+5The poor studios? Think of the artists!
- EvilAnimator, on 12/14/2007, -33/+9Suck it, Apple haters!

- kevin45, on 12/14/2007, -10/+17Ok? Everyone else has had this ability for a few years.
- rspeed, on 12/14/2007, -8/+8Everyone has had the ability to send ringtones directly from Garage Band to iTunes? You learn something new every day.

- nightstrm, on 12/14/2007, -12/+21Apple relented? Maybe they were just working on the functionality and testing before releasing it...
- jpetrides, on 12/14/2007, -5/+27Maybe, but this doesn't change the fact that they should have been free in the first place. Adding a song editor to itunes and then charging to make the new file and transfer it to your iphone is ridiculous. Charging money for ringtones is one of the biggest scams out there. I used motorola phone tools 4 years ago to do the same thing for free.
- Angostura, on 12/14/2007, -0/+2And of course Garageband 4 isn't exactly free for most people.
- austinnowlin, on 12/15/2007, -0/+1Damn it quit your bitchin. Thank you Apple for correcting your mistake.

- phoomp, on 12/14/2007, -2/+8Testing the functionality of adding ringtones to an existing set of ringtones? Is the iPhone OS so unstable that a few extra .mp4s might crash it?

http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=35149 ... - jermm, on 12/14/2007, -13/+3Quick question:
Does anyone really have an iPhone without at least 1 mac laying around?- monospaced, on 12/14/2007, -1/+13Apparently 50% of iPhone users, actually.
- Mizzike, on 12/14/2007, -1/+13*raises hand*
- UoMDeacon, on 12/14/2007, -1/+12Ummm...yeah, that'd be me.
- itsthebrod, on 12/14/2007, -4/+15Since when are iPhones for Mac users only now? You seem to refer to Macs lying around as if they're rubber bands or dirty socks. Dumbest thing I've read today...
- desqjockey, on 12/14/2007, -1/+4Maybe thats because they are hard to upgrade. My PC still has components from the mid-90s. It evolves.
- johnpaul191, on 12/14/2007, -3/+3there really are tons of them. obviously the iPhone has a special appeal to Mac users, but that's because many smartphones don't sync well with OS X.
- TheMidnight, on 12/14/2007, -1/+3I only have one Mac, and it doesn't lie around. I actually use it!

- abbathdoom, on 12/14/2007, -16/+68I've never understood why people are so critical of Apple over not having free Ringtones. Its the greedy record labels who are constantly threatening to pull out of iTunes that are insisting that if iTunes supports ringtones then it sure as hell better be ones that pay them a percentage. Ringtones are big business for labels. If Apple didnt have iTunes and agreements with all the labels do you think they would be bothering to take a tiny cut of ring tone sales for the sake of making their hardware less appealing? I dont think so!
- nightstrm, on 12/14/2007, -10/+4I agree with you 100%. That said, I'm sure your comment will quickly be buried.
- kevin45, on 12/14/2007, -5/+6You can set ringtones on a WindowsMobile device by transferring a mp3 over and setting it as the ringer, its fairly easy. Then just use a cutting tool like Goldwave to get the section you want and voila... free ringtone.
- dyranios2, on 12/14/2007, -7/+5Do you have any sources for this information? Other phones seemed to do it okay..
- Smoozle, on 12/14/2007, -0/+9Other phones don't use iTunes-ish software to interface with your computer. Other phones are not made by companies that also have a music distribution business, on which the continued success of a cash-cow line of mp3 players depends.
- bigsteve, on 12/14/2007, -0/+4Precisely. I never understood the uprising of morons who think Apple is intentionally removing features they obviously their customers want.

- betterth, on 12/14/2007, -9/+6Right...every other phone company out there lets you put ring tones on any half decent phone. Even free little RAZRs can have free custom ring tones.
- Smoozle, on 12/14/2007, -0/+3Yeah, only Motorola can say "Screw you!" to Universal with little to no consequences. Apple can't.
- BeeWolf, on 12/14/2007, -0/+4Excellent point. Apple isn't only trying to stay on the good side of AT&T, but they have the music conglomerates to keep placated as well. This whole "blame Apple for lack of custom ringtones" thing strikes me the same as those who liked --still like!-- to cast Apple as the largest purveyor of DRM'd music on the planet. While true, it completely misses the point: Apple's influence and direction in the music download industry is positive and not negative, and DRM-hatas would do well to recognize that fact. Ultimately, it probably will turn out that Apple's influence in the mobile phone market--including ringtones--was one of positive change. Or at least neutrality.
- rawheadrex, on 12/14/2007, -0/+2Except, of course, the iPhone can do the same thing as those half decent phones even before this update. As it stands, the current iTunes and iPhone firmware combination let's you transfer over any file less than 30 seconds as a ringtone. This functionality just makes cutting out the 30 second clip and transferring it to the iPhone very easy.
Do all those "half decent phones" out there come with a slick audio editor and transfer software as well?
Didn't think so.- somegeologist, on 12/15/2007, -0/+1You mean like this free one

and drag and drop works just as good as your "slick" transfer software.- mrBitch, on 12/17/2007, -0/+1drag and drop just doesn't cut it when your "slick" transfer software also includes "slick" synch with your email, your contacts addresses & phone numbers, your calendar, your music library, your photo library, your video / movie library, your web browser bookmarks, and your audio books ...

- kevin45, on 12/14/2007, -18/+4Why? I plug in my Treo or put a mp3 on SD card... pop it in, set it as a ringtone. Takes like 2 minutes and its always been free.
- huggybarrel, on 12/14/2007, -4/+7ooook. It sucks for the Windows+iPhone users who don't/can't have/use Garageband.

- potterboy, on 12/14/2007, -1/+16What he meant is that Windows iPhone users can't do this.
- bpapa, on 12/14/2007, -16/+3If I'm Windows, I'd have so many other issues that free ringtones vs. 1.99 ringtones would be the least of my concerns.

- bpapa, on 12/14/2007, -4/+3There's one program, called Parallels (or VMWare) and that's all you need.

- MacGeekGuy, on 12/14/2007, -4/+16Why's this guy being dugg down? That's not an anti-windows comment, it's a statement of fact. Garageband is not available for Windows, therefore they are left out in the cold for making ringtones this way. It's a valid and sympathetic statement.
- Mizzike, on 12/14/2007, -3/+5Except for the fact that a simple renaming of a file from file.aac to file.m4r results in a custom ringtone, once imported into the latest version of iTunes.
- jerrylin, on 12/14/2007, -1/+7http://www.macrumors.com/iphone/2007/09/07/free-cu ...
You can still add free Ringtones to an iPhone using Windows. Using the m4r rename trick (convert to AAC first) - TrippleHead, on 12/15/2007, -2/+2You have an iPhone but not a mac? BLASPHEMY!
- kevin45, on 12/14/2007, -18/+4Why? I plug in my Treo or put a mp3 on SD card... pop it in, set it as a ringtone. Takes like 2 minutes and its always been free.
- HypocriteDigg, on 12/14/2007, -9/+6Wow this features is awesome!! It is soooo easy to make a ringtone. You should have seen what I had to go through to make a ringtone for my Samsung A900.
- itsthebrod, on 12/14/2007, -15/+8Wait a second... I've always made custom ringtones for free for my phones with Audacity and any old mp3 file... Trim a section of the mp3 to ~18 seconds, save as mp3, and transfer to phone and use as ringtone. Does the iPhone not allow this? If so, that's pretty ridiculous since I've been doing that for 3-4 years now...
- Calabahn, on 12/14/2007, -2/+4You can with iTunes 7.5 and iPhone 1.1.2. And it can be up to 40 seconds long. Just change the file extension to .M4R and double click on the file, it'll open in iTunes Ringtones library. Works the same for Windows users or Mac.
- colincornaby, on 12/14/2007, -0/+3To clarify the above comment, the file has to be in the AAC format first. You can't just take an MP3 and rename it to M4R. If you have Garageband, all you have to do is drag the MP3 in and then say save as ringtone though.
- MiDri, on 12/14/2007, -1/+1Using audacity and SUPER will allow you to do it really easy in windows.

- TheReport, on 12/14/2007, -0/+15wow either, I've been at digg for to long and see this statement as a rather confusing ploy to convey sarcasm or you genuinely are happy for Apple fans. What a strange and foreign concept
- kaytrio, on 12/14/2007, -1/+4You're a good person
- joker10687, on 12/14/2007, -2/+8Hopefully other companies will follow suit and make it easy to put your own custom ringtones... I've always wanted to do it but can't on my $20 phone 8[
- phoomp, on 12/14/2007, -3/+1I've never had any troubles doing so on my free RAZR
- hiro, on 12/14/2007, -1/+2I think you missed the sarcasm there
- arjung, on 12/14/2007, -0/+4verizon makes me
1) record a voice recording
2) add a mp3 file to my sd card
3) rename the mp3 to the weird name of the voice recording
4) never remove my sd card
to get free ringtones on my razr.
- chiller2002, on 12/15/2007, -0/+1Other companies have long supported MP3s-as-ringtones. Nokia, Motorola, Samsung...I've used them all and have always made custom ringtones for them.
- phoomp, on 12/14/2007, -3/+1I've never had any troubles doing so on my free RAZR
- pyrates, on 12/14/2007, -3/+4This makes sense since Apple undid all the anti-ringtone features that were in iTunes 7.4.x when they released iTunes 7.5. But they should have just allowed this in the first place. I do not buy the excuse that they wanted to add it to garage band before enabling to do it in iTunes. They delibrately tried to make you pay for ring tones by disabling the workarounds that caused you to be able to add them. No excuse for that other then them giving into at&t's demands.
And for those who think I'm bias against Apple, I'm just being objective. I don't actively defend them like a lot of the fan boys do. But when they do something wrong, I will speak out about it. And I do own an iPhone, hacked and unlocked of course. And I love it.- johnpaul191, on 12/14/2007, -1/+2it's not like Apple will ever explain if it was a technical issue or a business issue (meaning AT&T). Speculate all you want.
- deadbaby, on 12/14/2007, -0/+2You may not buy it, but it's true. Apple has a history of holding off on features until they can implement them properly. They very rarely will do something that requires a user to convert, edit, rename, and manually move a file to make a feature usable.
As for giving into AT&T's demands, remember AT&T is a partner. Apple needed a carrier to springboard their product. Like any other partnership they have to make some concessions. If they had partnered with Verizon or T-Mobile they'd still have to meet the carrier half way on some issues. That's just how business works.
- digjam, on 12/14/2007, -13/+4what the hell is GarageBand anyways..?
STOP making every little news with Apple a BIG DEAL!!!- benitojuarez, on 12/14/2007, -1/+3Im all for stop posting every little ***** thing about apple but this is actually kind of a big deal and doesnt fall into the category of who the hell cares.
- pbnjeff, on 12/14/2007, -1/+3GarageBand is a program already installed on new Macintoshes that allows you to make your own music (through the on-screen keyboard or MIDI instruments).
This is a pretty big deal, since this isa triumph for the little man in one of those people vs capitalistic music company things.
- Modestexcuse, on 12/14/2007, -9/+3Um, doesn't everyone know about Audacity? Easy as pie to make as many FREE mp3 ringtones you'd like.

- Bosoxmrkn, on 12/14/2007, -0/+2I am a PC user with an iPhone and many friends with Macs... would this work?
1. Store all MP3s on a removable hard drive.
2. Attach removable hard drive to friend's mac.
3. Create rigntones using garageband and save ringtones on hard drive.
4. Bring hard drive back to PC and import saved ringtones to itunes.
5. sync.
Since I can't sync music from 2 computers this seems to be a logical option, just wondering if it will work. I know there is the old .acc to .m4r... but this seems like it would be easier if you don't have a music file editor on your PC.- MiDri, on 12/14/2007, -0/+2You can synk from multiple computers - you just can't use itunes to do it.
http://youbegin.blogspot.com/2007/11/mlipod-winamp ... - Qumahlin, on 12/15/2007, -0/+2What firmware does your iphone have? Is it unlocked? If you have firmware 1.1.2 and the newest version of itunes you don't need your friend at all. Import the MP3's into iTunes, right click on them and choose "convert to AAC", open files in windows explorer and change the extension from M4A to M4R and import them into itunes again.
Wallah, ringtones

- tsalti, on 12/14/2007, -5/+3Cool, all other phones should start doing this now! Oh wait...
- digthedug, on 12/14/2007, -0/+5Err, the converting to AAC and then renaming to M4R works in the newest version of iTunes... No need for GarageBand.
- davidrossiii, on 12/14/2007, -1/+3Yeah, but GarageBand has a cooler interface.
- deadbaby, on 12/14/2007, -0/+2There's no need to use it but it converts to AAC, renames it and puts it in your ringtones library. Why wouldn't you want to use it?
- Zero2aHero, on 12/15/2007, -0/+3In garageband you can import a whole song and then select the 40 second "cycle" you want to use as a ringtone and export it right from there, way easier than renaming extensions,etc...
- davidrossiii, on 12/14/2007, -3/+3Umm... I suppose this doesn't really work for Windoze users. Well, I guess this is just another way of Apple saying, "Get a Mac".

- colincornaby, on 12/15/2007, -1/+2Yes, this does work for PC users, you just have to use a different tool than Garageband. As you can see, the above poster suggested Audacity.
- davidrossiii, on 12/25/2007, -0/+1Well, I just mean the slick GarageBand-iTunes integration.
- MiDri, on 12/14/2007, -2/+2Audacity + SUPER, god damn it!
- robdazomba, on 12/14/2007, -1/+5Relents? More like "finally found time." It's clear to anyone even vaguely paying attention that Apple has stretched their resources pretty thin over the last year and had to abandon various features on the iPhone that people were expecting. Still, it's fun to watch people get worked up over their own pet conspiracy theories about Apple and then watch the inevitable told-ya-so moment come.
Sheesh, people. Get out more often. - bbardlbradd, on 12/14/2007, -2/+3I've always used Garageband for making ringtones. So I don't know who's problem this fixes...
- DestroyFascism, on 12/14/2007, -11/+5OMG!!! I can make ring tones for Apple? Strange, I have been making ring tones for my nokia for 4 years.....Fan boys.....hello!

- ThankTheCheese, on 12/15/2007, -0/+2unfortunately the iPhone must be running 1.1.2 or later, so people with hacked phones running 1.1.1 (like me) won't be able to do this....yet
- r3negadeX, on 08/11/2008, -5/+4OMG! Do you know what would be REALLY crazy? If Apple let their customers download custom *programs* too! Wicked!
- sweezly, on 12/15/2007, -1/+0man, i thought the iPhone was supposed to be revolutionary or something... i mean, c'mon... my Motorola Krzr k1m came with software to do all that crap. I have been making custom ringtones long before I ever heard of the iPhone. Not trashing apple, just surprised you couldnt do this in the first place.
- dkla, on 12/15/2007, -0/+2Great!! Now all we need is voice-dialing to work...
- marktw69, on 12/17/2007, -1/+0you can get 15 free if you go to http://www.get15free.com
- clpo13, on 12/19/2007, -0/+1Free ringtones! All you have to do is buy a $1500 Mac and you're all set!
- bigtyming504, on 12/20/2007, -0/+0a lot of credit should go to iPhoneRingToneMaker and iToner for forcing apple to do this
- rguo8, on 09/20/2008, -0/+0I just knew about this. Thank you for the info.
