A couple of iPhone "how to" questions

[achiro]

You may not even be able to do this but anyway:

First it seems like every song I want to use from Itunes as a ringtone gives me the message that this song can no longer be converted to a ringtone. Can you download ringtones to an iPhone from another source or just iTunes?

Is there a way to set an alarm or something to have your iTunes come on so you can wake up to your music? I'd really like to find a speaker dock of some sort to put in my bedroom and wake up to my playlists instead of some random radio station.

IF YOU'RE PC:


have the song in iTunes Music library

1) right click>Convert to AAC

2) rename the second one(the AAC one whatever you want thats diff than the first one)

3)right click>Get Info>Options tab

4)check the Start time and End Time boxes, and put in the 30 seconds you want as your ringtone

5) after that, hit OK, go into My Music>iTunes>iTunesMusic>(insert artist name here)>(insert Album here)>and then rename it from "whatever.m4A" to "whatever.m4R"(w/o quotes)

6) go to iTunes>File>Add file to library> and then find it, and add it and itll be in your ringtone section under Library


if you're in Mac, do the same thing only instead of My Documents>My Music

put wherever your iTunes folder is(im not expierienced wit Mac, so idk)

for the 2nd one, I'm pretty sure that's not possible from just the phone.
