This is odd, because I just installed iTunes 7.4 on September 5th.
Not sure what Apple “fix”, but I can no longer add my own ringtones using the “.m4r” extension method.
How to add your own custom made ringtones to the iPhone:
- Encode the file into 128kbps AAC, smaller file size is preferred.
- Rename the file extension from “.m4a” to “.m4r”; for Mac OS X “Get Info” the file, then change the extension name there.
- Add the now “.m4r” file into iTunes, preferably have iTunes to copy the files into the library.
- Look for the “Ringtones” folder, usually inside the “iTunes/iTunes Music/Ringtones” folder.
- Rename the extension of the files back to “.m4a”.
- Connect your iPhone, go to the “Ringtones” tab, and check the ringtones you want to send to the iPhone.
So far it is possible that Apple has just plug this “.m4r” extensions hole, or it is just a “side effect”.
