Changing music file from .m4a to .m4r?? Help!

can anyone point me in the right direction on how to change an .m4a file to .m4r?? I have searched this forum and other websites but haven't found much. I am using my iPhone to search so maybe thats why I'm getting frustrated do to the lack of speed using edge! Ugghh! Any help would be appreciated even if its just a link! BTW... Using windows vista.

Thx

Go to Computer (or any other folder) on Vista.
Go to Organize then Folder and Search Options.
Go to View tab and uncheck Hide extensions for known filetypes.
Now go to the file and you can change the extension.

All you do is rename the file from m4"a" to m4"r" after having done what was stated above, and bingo, you've changed the file type. No conversion or anything is required.

Why use any software?

In Windows XP:

Open My Computer
Go to Tools > Folder Options
Click View and uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types"
Click OK (it will take a second to apply) then you are all set.

File explorer will let me change the name but the new extension doesn't take. I'm stuck!

make sure you're changing the extension and not the filename or it won't work

it should be changed from ringtone.m4a to ringtone.m4a
