Getting a ringtone on my iPhone? - 1

I got an app that allowed me to record a ringtone from one of my songs. However, according to the app, I need to sync my iPhone to iTunes to get it into my sounds folder. I have a ton of pirated music on my phone, so if I do that it will all be deleted(I confirmed this with an older iPod that I don't use). How can I get the ringtone without deleting all my stuff?

You don't have to sync to iTunes like you would an iPod. You have to plug the device into iTunes and stop the automatic sync if it comes up. Then go under your iPhone's name and set it to Manually Manage Music. Now you put and take off what you want and not have iTunes do it by itself. Now you have to go under apps and then under iTunes File Sharing which is all the way at the bottom and then look for the ringtone app you downloaded. To the right you will see the file or files you made. Click on one of them and save them somewhere on your computer - the desktop is the easiest. Then drag the saved ringtone from the desktop and into iTunes. A section called Tones will pop up in iTunes. Now go into Tones and drag and drop the ringtone on your phone's name. It should sync it over. If you want to, you can go under your phone's name and tell it to sync ringtones automatically. It will leave your music alone because you told iTunes not to bother it. I've done this plenty of times and each time it has worked.
