@BlackXhorneT

Hey, i need help.

When i try to sync the ringtone to my iphone i have to check this box that syas "Sync Tones" and when i click it Itunes comes up with a box that says "Are you sure you want to Sync tones? All existing songs, movies, and tv shows on the iphone [iphone name] will be removed. I do not want to do this because my computer with my songs is in another country which i dont have acces to at the moment. Thanks.

how do you get the ringtone section in iTunes

You don' need a second program to crop the file.

Before you convert the file to AAC right click on the file

Get Info -> Options

change the Start at and Finish at times to the segment you want, hit OK

IE you can do 0:00 and 0:30 or 0:30-0:60 if you think its a better part of the song

then convert.

This will create a 30 second AAC file.

@Xeraxical hey i made sure it was a win/mac compatible tutorial

[Xeraxical]

@BlackXhorneT still, you're a macfag now >:{

@Xeraxical i've run windows (98 - 7sp1) i've run ubuntu (10 only) and i've run mac (10.5.2 - 10.7dp3) and my honest opinion is that snow leopard (10.6.x mac) is the fastest/stablest os i've ever ran. and with porting tools like WINE and CXZ you can run 90% of windows programs, + mac only and many linux programs. from a developers standpoint (you being a programer) surely you can see that its really the only choice... or linux... basicaly anything but windows... build a hackintosh. you'l see

@BlackXhorneT We have mac's in college, they suck ass. I installed windows on one, bleh. D;

[BlackXhorneT]

@Xeraxical ...if you're college can't set up its macs not to allow the students to install another OS (through VM, Parallels or bootcamp), then frankly you're college sucks ass... you should consider going somewhere that understands IT and how to set user privilege rights to disallow students from that sort of thing. also, you sir have too much free time... just use the mac and go back to windows when you get in. chill out ok?
