Just rename it... rename the m4a file to m4r.
The format is the same.

Hi Sieghard,
Thanks for these steps.
What's the best and easiest way to convert 100 .m4a files to .m4r? Keith

Hi Jed,
Sorry, I did download the zip folder with the ringtones from the link Mark
provided. I hadn't even checked to see what format they were in but just
assumed they were in iTunes/iPhone format since Mark mentioned somebody had
already done all the work. As Cara pointed out, any tone that is not in AAC
format (Apple Audio Codex) has to be converted first before you can rename it.
The generic music/audio extension for this format is M4A and Apple uses various
versions of this extension to indicate whether an audio file is a song,
ringtone, audio book etc. Anything with M4A is treated just as audio/a song.
M4R indicates a ringtone, M4B an audio book.
So, basically you will have to find an audio converter application or use a free online conversion website
like http://audio.online-convert.com/convert-to-m4a. I just tried that one and it's pretty simple and
straight forward, of course, it is one file/tone at a time and I believe there was over 100 tones in that
zipped file. Anyhow, the link I provided should straight away open the page for converting to M4A, just use
the button quick nav key to find the "browse" button, browse to the file you want to convert,
select it and then find the "Convert" button. The file will upload and convert, then check your
information bar as it should pop up with a notice asking whether you want to download the newly converted
tone. Select "Save" and the M4A file will be put in your downloads folder. Now you can rename it
and follow the steps I described in my first email which explain how you get it into your tones library in
iTunes and then sync it to your phone.
Maybe Mark will be so kind as to batch convert all the tones, rename them and
to post a new zip file in his Dropbox.
Regards,
Sieghard

Hi John and Jed.
John, Jed has already said that he has tried putting the ringtones in his Tones
folder.
Jed, in order for your ringtones to show up as tones, remember, they must be
forty seconds or under, and they must have the file extension m4r.
So if these tones are mp3 tones, they must be first converted to Apple’s AAC
format and then the extension of each file should be changed from m4a to m4r.
If the sound files are already in AAC format and have the m4a extension, you
can simply rename the file and change its extension to m4r.
Once you do this, the files in your Tones folder should show up for you as
ringtones in iTunes.
You can then sync these to your phone.
I hope this helps.
Cheers!
Cara

Hello Everyone,
Recently, I purchased a Samsung Galaxy S 6. While it can never
take the place of my beloved iPhone 6 Plus, it is a very, very
well-made and classy device.
One thing I absolutely adore about all of the Galaxy products,
especially on the new S 6, is the number of native RingTones,
sounds, and notifications included with the devices.
A quick Google search will turn up many sites where the stock
RingTones for many popular Android Smartphones have been ripped and
placed in a Zip file, ready to be used by anyone.
The primary reason why these RingTones are made readily available
is so that those who wish to create what are known as custom ROMS
can more closely mirror the native manufacturers OS with regard to
basic functionality.
Okay, okay; too much information, right?
The following is text that I posted to an Android list containing
the link to the RingTones, sounds and notifications for the S 6
which, you may use on your iOS device.
Mark
Download The Samsung Galaxy S 6 and 6 Edge Stock RingTones, Sounds,
and Notifications
For a while now I've been using a text message alert on my iPhone 6
Plus that I ripped from a Galaxy Note 2.
There are several ringtones and/or notifications on my Galaxy S 6
that I want to use on my 6 Plus, as well.
Imagine my surprise when I discovered that all the hard work had
already been done for me as the S 6 and 6 Edge stock sounds are
available on The Android Soul.com website.
All they ask is that one gives them credit for the Zip file when
sharing the link or when using the sounds in a custom ROM.
So, for those of you who want to sprinkle a little Galaxy seasoning
into your Apple sauce (or anything else for that matter), I offer
the following two links:
1.
The direct download link to the Zip file containing all of the
stock sounds for Samsung Galaxy S 6 and 6 Edge:
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/downloads/file/S6Rings.zip
2.
The URL to the Android Soul.com site which contains the link listed
above:
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/download-samsung-galaxy-s6-ringtones-
74737/
Please note that all of the files are in their original format said
format being .ogg
In order to be used in iOS as ringtones or notifications, assuming
you do not use iTunes in the conversion process, they will first
have to be converted to .m4a and then subsequently renamed to .m4r.
Enjoy,
Mark
