Part 1: How to Add Ringtones to an iPhone Using iTunes?

Now, let's get those ringtones onto your iPhone!

Step 1 Connect iPhone device to your PC.

Step 2 Open iTunes on your PC.

Step 3 Load the ringtones of your choice into iTunes.

This can be a file you've created yourself, or one directly from your iTunes library. If it's one you made on your own, make sure it has the right file extension (.mr4), or it won't work. If it's one you downloaded from another site, you might have to re-format it so that iTunes can use it. Also, check that your file is not too big – your iPhone does have a set limit on ringtone length, and if yours is beyond the limit, it will not sync to your device with iTunes. You can load the tones with more than one method but easiest way is simply “Drag and Drop” Method as shown below:

Step 4 Sync your tones, so they will appear on your iPhone.

To add your new ringtones to iPhone, you must connect your device to iTunes and find the Tones section. If your iPhone is not being detected by your computer, figure out why. When you're ready, click either “Selected tones” or “All tones” (make sure to check the boxes next to the ringtones you want to sync). Click “Apply” and sync your phone as usual.

Step 5 The moment you've been waiting for - set your new ringtone!

Now that the sync is done, your new ringtones should be available in the Sound settings of your iPhone. Just go to “Settings,” then “Sounds” and then “Ringtone” or “Tones.” Choose your new ringtone. If all went well, it should now appear at the top of the list above the default ringtones.
