Hi Marilyn, iPhone ringtones have an M4R file extension, and these are actually Apple M4A files which has simply been renamed. As you may know, ringtones cannot be more than 30 seconds long. if you want to go through the trouble, as well as spend some money, I did find a relatively accessible, though not perfect, piece of software which can transfer a number of different audio and video files to an iPhone, as well as ringtones. Here is a link to the software, Which, incidentally, does work under windows 7 and later:
https://softorino.com/waltr/ Although this software is supposed to transfer files using Wi-Fi, I was never able to get this to work, and so I recommend a lightning cable. I hope this doesn’t cause you more trouble than it’s worth. Smile. Good luck, and take care, Rod Sent from Outlook for iOS<https://aka.ms/o0ukef> ________________________________ From: Talk <talk-bounces+rod_hutton=hotmail....@lists.window-eyes.com> on behalf of Marilyn H via Talk <talk@lists.window-eyes.com> Sent: Thursday, April 8, 2021 4:15 PM To: Window-Eyes Discussion List Cc: Marilyn H Subject: RE: help? Is m4b what is necessary for an IPhone6plus? If so, then how do you get those ringtones onto the IPhone using a Win7 laptop? Thanks!
