How to put a melody on an iPhone 6s. Let's set a ringtone. Third Party iPhone Applications

Standard ringtones are quite annoying and tiring - at least, most people react to basic ringtones that way. Therefore, we really like to set our favorite melodies and top hits that sound in the rotation of radio stations on the call. As for iPhone users, they experience certain difficulties in this matter. How to put a song on a call on an iPhone? Check out this procedure with our review.

Apple is committed to copyright protection. Therefore, we cannot take and set an arbitrary track as a call to our iPhone. What should those who independently write music on a synthesizer do and want to put their own melody on the call? It would seem that no copyright violations are observed here. Nevertheless, there are no basic possibilities for replacing the call signal with an arbitrary track.

But users of other mobile platforms have such opportunities - we download the melody, cut it to the desired size (or leave it as it is), and then upload it in any convenient way to your phone. Everything is ready - go to the sound profile settings, select our melody, save the settings and enjoy your favorite melody. IPhone owners can only envy the owners of other phones.

What should owners of iPhone 4S, 5s, 6, and many others do? How to put a song on a call on your iPhone? To do this, you will have to use some tricks. We will need:

• Any file manager for Windows that allows you to change file extensions;
• ITunes multimedia software;
• Downloaded melody.

With the help of this set, we will try to set a ringtone in iPhone bypassing the restrictions.

A nice advantage of this procedure is that we will not need to fiddle with cutting off the melody - this is done using the basic capabilities of the iTunes application.

How to create a ringtone with iTunes

Let's note right away that the maximum duration of iPhone ringtones is 38 seconds - another limitation. In the first step, we need to add the music file to the iTunes library, this is done through the top menu "File". Then we proceed to trimming the melody - right-click on the file, select the "Information" item and go to the "Parameters" tab, where the tools for trimming the melody are located.

Owners of phones on other mobile platforms are forced to use various sound editors - this is the only way to cut the ringtone to the desired size. IPhone owners are relieved of this, since we see two items in the "Options" tab:

• "Start";
• "The end".

This is where we can establish from what moment the ringtone begins (for example, from the 21st second). On the second line, we indicate the end time of the ringtone, the maximum duration of which cannot exceed 38 seconds. Click "OK", again call the context menu and select the item "Create version in AAC format" - our ringtone is almost ready, all that remains is to change its extension. At this stage, we need a file manager with the ability to change file extensions.

If you want to use a regular Explorer, go to "Control Panel - Folder Options", open the "View" tab and uncheck "Hide extensions for registered file types" there. Opening Explorer you will see that almost all files have extensions visible... Now we just need to go to the folder with the iTunes library, find our ringtone there and change its extension to * .m4r (this is done through the standard renaming through the context menu).

Installing a ringtone on iPhone

Our ringtone is ready, all that remains is to remove the start and stop points from it through the "Options" tab. Now let's try to set the ringtone to the iphone 5s (or any other iPhone). To do this, we perform synchronization, after which the ringtone we created will be sent to the smartphone... There is nothing left - go to the sound settings and set our ringtone for a call. Now, during a voice call, you will hear your favorite song, and not the order of boring standard melodies.

Changing the default ringtone in the iOS operating system is a little more difficult than in. It is not clear why, but the Apple developers did not want to provide an easy opportunity for Apple device owners to show their individuality.

Let's not chat a lot and get down to business. Let's try to create a step-by-step instruction with screenshots on changing the standard ringtone on an iPhone running iOS 10.3.1.

To get started, download a musical composition or song that you will install on your iPhone. Then launch iTunes on your PC and connect your smartphone to it.

In an open window iTunes select the tab "Songs"and just drag the desired music file there:

In the new window, you need to set an interval of approximately 30-40 seconds. Longer tracks are simply recognized by the operating system as a regular song or the like. Thus, it is necessary to enter in numbers the beginning and end of the melody. Then click on "OK" at the bottom right.

Note: it is better to specify the duration of the iPhone ringtone up to 30 seconds.

Then you need to go to the menu "File / Convert / Create version in AAC format". It is this format that corresponds to the ringtone for the iOS operating system and, accordingly, the iPhone:

The new "cropped" ringtone will appear just below the original and will look like this:

Click on it with the right mouse button (RMB) and in the context menu that appears, select "Show in Windows Explorer":

We need this procedure in order to change the extension of the musical ringtone we created, the one that we "cut".

You can go to the menu "Start / Control Panel / All Control Panel Items / Folder Options / View" and remove the "birdie" opposite the item "Hide extensions for registered file types." Click OK:

Earlier we clicked "Show in Windows Explorer" - we return to this window and see our future non-standard ringtone for iPhone. Now you can see the extension of this music file and change it to the one that matches the iPhone ringtone extension.

Old file with extension .m4a change to .m4r.We save the changes. Go to the iTunes window and look for the Songs / Library tab when the smartphone is connected to the PC. Just drag our new ringtone into this window:

This is where the dances with a tambourine practically end. You just need to sync your iPhone with iTunes installed on your PC and that's it. And do not forget to change the standard ringtone to your own in the menu of the phone itself.

This concludes our step-by-step guide with screenshots on changing the melody (ringtone) on the iPhone. Changed ringtone on iPhone 5S 16 GB with iOS 10.3 operating system.

Now we need to change the extension of the song to .m4r. Let's leave iTunes aside for now and go to the computer control panel, open "Folder Options" → "Folder Options" → "View" → "Hide extensions for registered file types" (here we uncheck the box opposite).

How to set ringtone without iTunes on iphone 6

To set a melody for a call, the ITools software is useful, it's free. ITools - the development of Chinese programmers, presented as an analogue of iTunes. Has a number of advantages over iTunes:

1. The size of the program is only a few megabytes
2. Requires less computer resources
3. Loads to your computer many times faster
4. No synchronization required
5. Allows you to easily upload media files to your iPhone
6. Helps to make ringtones for calls

The first step is the same as with iTunes: download the ITools program from the official website, install and open it. In the "Tools" section, look for an icon that says "Create sound signal" or "Make sound signal", depending on the version. Through the "Choice" we select our melody, cut off the desired fragment, no longer than 38 seconds and press the "Save" button. We are looking for a composition on our computer and keep it in sight, it will come in handy soon. We connect our device to the computer. Open “Ringtones” in ITools and transfer the prepared fragment there. The program will automatically determine the required format and add the ringtone to the iPhone without synchronization. If, after the work done, the warning "Unable to establish compatibility with iTunes" pops up, then this method does not suit you and it is better to solve the problem with iTunes.

How to set ringtone to call without iTunes via IFunBox

This method of installing a ringtone on an iPhone is easier than through ITools, and even more so than through iTunes. Download the IFunBox program from the official website and install it on your computer. With the help of programs for working with audio files, we cut the song to the correct size, don't forget, only 38 seconds. Nero Wave Editor or standard Movie maker will help you make the desired fragment. Then, through the computer control panel, open "Folder Options" → "Folder Options" → "View" → Hide extensions for registered file types "(uncheck the box opposite). Find our shortened song and change the file extension to ".m4r". Open IFunBox and on the left side, in the column, pay attention to the "Ringtones" section. On the right there will be standard phone sounds, where we drag the already finished song. The ringtone is saved automatically.

It just so happened that it is very troublesome to install melodies created or selected on the Internet for incoming calls to the iPhone. It is imperative to take into account both the duration of the selected track and its extension so that the iPhone recognizes it as music or a ringtone. In general - a "dark forest" for the uninitiated.

It seems that the manufacturer decided to set such "difficulties" for a reason as the standard settings of his smartphone. Since Apple, like no one else, has an extensive list of ready-made paid tunes in its brand store. And, of course, it pushes customers to buy in every possible way. Why bother and crop or convert your music? Its cost, in principle, is small, and those who are not very friendly with a PC are happy to acquire ready-made standard themes, which will not be difficult to install on an iPhone.

This material will be useful for users who often change ringtones and have experience with iTunes. And also for those who do not like standard motives.

Is there a finished composition?

If you already have a piece of music of a suitable length, in the format m4r (it is better if its name is in English) it will be quite easy to install. In the menu running on your computer iTunes, select the File tab, in it - Add a file to the library. Add the desired composition by specifying the path to the folder with it.

In the attachment with the "three dots" icon - click on the ringtone icon - the bell. The added file should appear in the sounds menu. It remains to put it in the iPhone.

Now connect your iPhone to your PC, click on the same menu - Sounds in iTunes, and accept the offer to sync the selected sounds (do not forget to check the boxes everywhere, otherwise everything will go down the drain). Click apply.

After synchronization, the ringtones will be displayed in the iPhone settings menu, in the subsection - Sounds — Ringtones... That's it, you can use them to install on any selected contact.

Making the track ourselves

If you do not have a file of the required length and extension, you can create your own unique theme yourself. Before you put it on your iPhone, you have to manually crop the selected part of the composition.

The algorithm is partially similar to the previous version. Download the songs you like on your PC, drag them to the aytyuns media library. Then, going to the Music menu, open each by right-clicking, and choosing Information from the drop-down menu.

Going to the Parameters tab, set the time period in the melody that you like (do not forget that its duration can be set within forty seconds). It is in the specified interval that the program will crop the composition. Therefore, first listen carefully to it, and mark the start and end times of the passage you like.

Click OK, and re-enter the source file, calling with the right mouse button the proposal to create a version of it in a format understandable to the iPhone - AAS. (Don't worry, the original composition will not change.)

After that, immediately below the original track, a music file will appear with exactly the same name, but with a duration of 40 seconds - that's what we need.

Now we need to create a readable format for it. Again we select our new musical composition, and depending on the type of operating system of the PC used, click either on "Show in Windows Explorer" or on "Show in Finder". In the highlighted window, next to the name of the melody - after the dot, just rename the existing extension m4a to m4r, recognized by the iPhone as a ringtone.

If extensions are not displayed in Windows, then you need to change the standard presets - in the start menu, control panel, in the folder properties, select View. Uncheck the box highlighted in the picture below.

Add the ringtone to your iTunes library, and it will appear in the "Sounds" section (If the track is not added, the sound menu will be inactive).

Do not forget an important point - always add newly created ringtones to the folder with the "old" media library. Otherwise, during synchronization, they will replace all previously downloaded files.

It remains to install the finished track on the iPhone, as indicated in the first option, and you are no longer afraid of any standard hackneyed motives. At first it will be a little troublesome and inconvenient, but repeating the procedure several times, you will spend a few minutes on everything.
