Wonders of Bluetooth: Making Ringtones

I’m sure there are people out there who already know the wonders of Bluetooth but I am prepared to share this great information with all members of the collegiate community.

Making your own ringtones can seem like something unachievable for the technologically challenged but this process is as simple as burning a CD in iTunes.

**Only applicable for people who use iTunes to store music, have a bluetooth capable computer, bluetooth capable phone and Mp3 capable phone. And if you don’t have a bluetooth capable phone, you… need a new phone.

1. Find a song that you wish to make into a ringtone in your iTunes window.
2. Pick a spot in that song where you would like the ringtone to begin.
3. For mac users: While the song is highlighted, hit “apple G” to get info on the song. For windows users… Right click, then select “Get Info”
4. Select the “Options” tab
5. In the text fields at the bottom of the page enter in the “Start” and “End” times for your ringtone. This has set the song to start at that particular time in the song.
6. Repeat steps 1-5 for other songs you wish to pimp your phone out with.

After you have done that, compile your songs in a playlist and burn those songs onto a CD. The way this works is that only the portion of the song you specified will be burned onto the disc. Genius.

7. After the CD is burned, import the CD.
8. The rest is easy. Just transfer the files to your phone and enjoy!
