Not impressed!

Ambrosia has been promising a new major version since iOS 5 was released...Almost 6 months later and nothing. As a paying customer, I see where I rank on their priority list. Unfortunately, this isn't the first time Ambrosia has provided bad support to paying customers. I had a bad experience with them back in the OS 8 or 9 days and swore that I'd never buy another of their products again. I found that iToner, when it was compatible with iTunes and iOS worked better than the other options out there. However, they lag pretty far behind the curve on keeping the software updated for new iTunes & iOS releases. I think they should just declare the product dead (End of Life) to remove all doubt.

I have been using Itoner for a few years and I have a big qualm with their customer support and recent response of not fixing itoner for 64 bit iTunes (basically you lose all your ringtones after every sync). Instead they tell you to run iTunes as 32bit and since that method works they aren't focusing on updating itoner presently as according to them they don't see an issue. I would avoid them for the poor attitude of support.

the best Ringtone-Program. SUPER

Nakko.com has many thousands of Ringtones for FREE. I have dozens that work fine on my iPhone.

Awesome program. Very nice to be able to make ringtones without paying $2.

Not to say the name of the application is bad, but it tends to appear under certain searches for printer utilities ^_^ y'know "Toner."

Well, they officially have the support for OS 1.1.4.. too bad that OS 2.0 will be out in a week or two and will most likely break it again...

To get iToner working with the latest iPhone software 1.1.3 try this workaround which is posted on the developers forums. 1. Launch iToner and connect your iPhone 2. Use iToner to remove any existing ringtones. 3. Import any of your ringtones into iTunes if they are not already there. 4. Select your ringtone in iTunes and choose "Convert Selection to AAC" from the Advanced menu. (if this option in the Advanced menu says "Convert Selection to [any other format], then open iTunes preferences, click on Advanced, then Import. Then change the "Import using" menu option to AAC. After this the item in the Advanced menu will refer to AAC. 5. Drag this converted file to your Desktop. 5. In the Finder, change the file extension from ".m4a" to ".m4r". Select the file and then go to the File menu to Get Info. Change the file extension to m4r. You should get a dialog box confirming the change. Change the filename for this file only (you will have to do that for each ringtone, but if you go ahead and say yes to using m4r for all aac files, all of your audio files will be converted to ringtone format). 6. You can now use iToner to sync the ringtone back over. :)

I bought iToner but it doesn t work on 1.1.3 iPhone.....even if its Jailbreaked... Hope they re going to make it possible...

Great app, but once synced i get no sound.. Maybe it doesn't work for 1.1.3 version

two clicks? what if your music collection is 98% mp3? are you going to covert all of them?

Gordon, MakeiPhoneRingTone does the same thing but ONLY with ACC files, iToner works with mp3 files... and it works great, worth every penny!

The application MakeiPhoneRingTone seems to do the same thing, only for free . . .

FINALLY I can use the Bob & Doug McKenzie Theme as the ringtone for my friend. Thanks, eh?

please, implement the caf (core audio format) support cheers

OS2Guy, iToner does not "jailbreak" your iPhone, nor does it put any code on your iPhone. It simply puts ringtones in the user area of your phone, using the exact same APIs and method that iTunes uses. There is no way that iToner can "brick" or otherwise damage your iPhone. If you have problems, and need help, please feel free to contact us at: help@AmbrosiaSW.com Andrew Welch / el Presidente / Ambrosia Software, Inc.

Any iPhone user who opts for this program should know that previous versions were cut off at the knees by Apple via iTunes, some iPhone users found their phones in bad shape. You risk the same problems if you use this program again - until the developer gets this program authorized and approved by Apple, along with a digital signature. Without that Apple is going to wipe it off your iPhone and probably more.

problem mp3s sync successfully; however, none of them has sound

neat and simple, just works. thank you guys for all the hard work since the 1.1.1 update!

Copies (and deletes) my homemade ringtones to the iPhone, but they do not make any sound. I'm using regular M4A files. :(

I am so happy to have this app back up and running. I missed my custom ringtones after upgrading my iPhone to v1.1.1. Got them back now with no fuss, no hassle.

Product works very seamlessly, and addresses a very clear need without compromising the ability to apply future firmware updates, etc. One thing I would like to see, that would better justify a $15 fee (as opposed to $5-$8, as others have noted) is the ability define a portion of a song or sound prior to transfer. Also nice would be some preference for on-the-fly downsampling of the snds, since that's another manual step, given the shortage of space on an 8GB iPhone (and the fact the speaker can't play stereo, etc.) Very nice, if simple, piece of software.

Ambrosia, I love you dearly, I don't have an iPhone ecause I live overseas but good job sticking it to Apple. I'm a massive Apple geek but his move to pay for ringtones is just stupid. If iPhone comes out here I'll be buying your program straight away.

I paid it, though slightly overpriced I think. Perhaps now that the "loyalists" have plopped down their money, a credit will be given once the price is dropped. ;-} Very good software and thanks for the quick turnaround after the iTunes update!

This is awesome! I was just about to go through all of the hassle of using a Jailbreak-utilizing program and even lugged an Intel iMac home, then this came out! Ambrosia's made a great little piece of software that does exactly what it's supposed to--well! I just hope that Apple doesn't come out with something similar on the 5th! I do think it should've been in the $5-8 range for its limited nature, however.

Works exactly as adversed. Way to go!

It does indeed work with .mp4 files. This is extremely well done and easy to use. Something Apple would have included, but for copyright issues and the fact that they want to sell the ability to utilize music as ring tones. I really hope Ambrosia is not given a cease and desist by the snake lawyers from Apple.

Does it work with protected song purchased from the iTunes store?

This is really simply to use. It's nice to see Ambrosia come out with random goodies like this.
