With iTunes version 8 is anybody else having problems bring the aac file to the desk top from iTunes? It won't let me do it. But if I create a mp3 file I can bring that out and then rename it. Weird.
 
I'm pretty sure I have the latest itunes 8.1.1 (or what ever) and all I to is make the acc file and drag it to the desktop also try consider using wavepad that program is free and will convert to acc as well.

Anything for that matter that converts to acc will work

make sure you delete the original ACC file from itunes or it wont let you bring your ringtone back in and also make sure you move to "recycle bin" and not "keep file"

I got it to work on my windows version via vmware. Just an extra step no biggie but I did get it to work.

Thank you very much for the tip!

:D I know this thread is kind of old but I have to say this was easy to follow to get some of my custom ring tones on my phone. I've had a touch for about a year now and the wifey and I just took the plunge and got our new Iphones this makes receiving new calls more bareable thanks OP.

How long are your ringtones anything more then 40 seconds won't show up when put on the phone. Also try manually dragging them onto your phone instead of syncing them and add them to iTunes first then add them to your iPhone. Also make sure there is no excess information, and one last thing if your running iTunes 9.0 I'm not sure how ringtones are effected I didn't upgrade to 9.0

glad i could be of some help :)

Sorry to bump this thread, I just have a quick question.

When I move the AAC version from iTunes to the desktop, and rename it, the file type doesn't convert.

So for example, I'll bring "Fix Up, Look Sharp" by Dizzee Rascal onto the desktop.

I rename it from "Fix Up, Look Sharp" to "Fix Up, Look Sharp.m4r" but when I look at the properties of the song it says "Name: Fix Up, Look Sharp.m4r m4a" or something along those lines.

Thanks for an excellent topic though, Acronym! Well done :D
