Why won't my file appear in Tones?

Ok, I'm kind of in a hurry here. I have a ringtone on my computer (it's a Dell) that is an.m4r and under 30 seconds and everything required to be a ringtone on my phone (iPhone 4) but whenever I drag it from my Libraries to Tones it just does, nothing. Nothing appears and I can't get anything in the tones section of iTunes. Can somebody Please help?

Hopefully, the information below will help you achieve what you are needing to do to add the ringtone to your phone. If not, please refer to your Itunes help file.

Instructions
Making Ringtones From MP4 Files
1
Select a song you want to use as a ringtone and write down the starting and ending times of the section you want to use. For ringtones, the clip must be 30 seconds or less.

2
Right click on your song and click "Get Info." Under the Options section, change the stop time and the start time to the times you wrote down previously
3
Import the song under the "Edit," "Preferences" and "Import" settings on most media players. Alter the import method so that the song is imported as an AAC file. This should be one of the options under "Import."

4
Click OK and the clip should appear in your music library right next to the original song. Find the clip in your music folder and drag and drop it onto your desktop.

5
Upload the song to your phone. With an iPhone, drag it into your iTunes ringtones section. With other phones, either upload it to your phone using a USB cable or memory card, or upload it to a ringtone sharing site and access the site with your phone.

6
Find the uploaded song in your phone and assign it as a ringtone.

  • IPhone Ring tones? How do they work? I recently got an iPhone, and I have an idea for a great ringtone, but I don't want the ringtone to be in my music if you understand what I mean, is that at all possible? Like is there anyway where I can have that song as my ringtone but the song itself would not be found in my music folder? Also if that doesn't work then once i have that song as my ringtone then can I delete that song from my iTunes/iPhone and still have it as my ringtone?
  • IPhone 4S text tones don't work? It seems to be a common problem from what I've read… But I was wondering if there was a solution. I've gotten a few texts and it didn't make a sound. I've read one thing that had to do with iCloud, but I'm not using iCloud… Anyways, is there a solution to this problem?
