Assigning songs as ringtones

Just wondered can you assign songs you download onto ipod section of phone as your ringtone like other phones available, if not will there be an update to make this possible?

There are ways of taking music and making ringtones, other than through iTunes. You will eventually have to take it into iTunes to get it into the phone. You also have to make sure you have "manually manage music" turned off in iTunes before you try and sync the ringtones.
Search the forum by "ringtones" and you should find a great deal of information. There are ways for Mac users through Garageband, and for Windows users using MP3 editing software. You should have no trouble finding any information you need on this.
Hope this answers your question.

  • Two questions 1. how can I send multiple photos to the same number 2. how do I assign a silent ringtone to a number?

    I want to send three photos to the same phone number. How can I do this without sending three seperate texts? Also how do I assign a silent ringtone to a number to block that number?

    you should be able to copy/paste more than one photo into an imessage by holding down on the entry field. When it comes to MMS, the number of pictures you can send is dictated by your carrier
    You could try using this service to create a special ringtone that has no actual sound content

    Just make the section of the song that you convert a silent part of a song (like the very beginning or end)

  • Can't assign song/mp3 to contact on N97

    hi, i have assigned songs from my music library to my phone memory contacts. it clearly shows which songs are assigned however it doesn't work. it only plays the ringtone/song from the profile every time someone calls.
    example:
    profile is general, ringtone is song X but when I assign song Y to contact Z, it still keeps playing song X. I've tried to change the songs and copied the contacts new but still won't work. anybody knows how to solve this problem? much appreciated, thanks

    Did you assign whole songs or have you converted them to ringtone size and length? I am not sure with the s60v5 OS since I havent tried it, but some phones would not play an entire song as a ringtone, and you need to convert them first. A software you could use is mp3 to ringtone gold, its freeware by the way.

  • Assign song to contact

    Hi,
    Can someone tell me how i can assign song from my itunes library that i have on my phone to my contact instead of using the regular ring tones that comes with the phone?

    You have to convert the song to ringtone format. Google "create iPhone ringtone" for options.

  • I recently downloaded a  bunch of songs an ringtones from Itunes on my phone. I synced up the phone to my computer to back up the files and to charge it and afterward all the new music and ringtones are gone?! Checked iTunes and they're not there either!

    I recently downloaded a bunch of songs and ringtones to my iPhone 4 and when I synced my phone to my computer to back up the files and to charge the phones the ringtones and songs were gone. They disappeared from my phone and from my iTunes as well. I checked my my iTunes for downloadable items and there was nothing there. I went onto iTunes and tried to download the same things that I had previously and when I did it said I had already downloaded them? iTunes only gave me the option to purchase the music and ringtones again.  Does this happen often or is there something wrong with the software on my iPhone?

    Hi,
    Did you have the music in your iTunes library on your computer when you signed up for match? How did you transfer the music from you iPhone to your computer? Do you have a back up.

    Following are 2 sets of instructions on how to do it using iTunes:

    http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/create-ringtones-from-your-itunes-library -and-add-them-to-your-iphone
    There are also a number of apps available. If you do an internet search for something like "iTunes ringtone maker" you should find a number of possibilities such as the following: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ringtones-for-iphone-ringtone/id380908399?mt=8  I've never used an app for that so can't give you any input on which one.

  • How to make a song a ringtone

    hiya i would like to know how to make a song a ringtone on my nokia lumia i only got it today and cant work out how to do it like other nokias. 
    thanks 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I had to register because I need to let you know what I think.
    I am a 45 year old bloke and I have spent the best part of tonight trying to get new songs onto my wifes nokia lumia 800, Ok after 30 mins I managed that then she said 'can I have a new text message funny tone and a new ringtone' So I said yea.
    OMG and I mean Oh My God, what on earth do you think you have done? Why have you made it so complicated. Its not real it seems I cant go to the music part on the phone and choose a new ringtone Oh no people on here it seems are unable to distinguish between ringtones and music in one so they split it up. Not only that you have to get zune to register the song/sound whatever as a ringtone genre before uploadidng it to your phone and thats not to mention getting the phone to see the new file in the first place because for some reason you dont want me looking round the files on my pc to upload you want to tell me what i can or cant upload because you know best right. WRONG.
    So I try to change it and 'ringtone' is not there for a genre so I thought (pardon my language) bollox I cant be bothered any more, once I think that and i read this thread I find those funny text messga tones I have, well forget that they can not be used only default ones????? Are you real? Honestly someone at Nokia when designing this phone thought 'You know what we will restrict them from changing text message tones because they will like that any buy more phones from us' ARE YOU REAL??????????????
    Right I am telling you here and now, I have 2 children both have phones I have one and so does my wife I also have a large extended family and NOT ONE SINGLE ONE OF US will ever buy another nokia. You seem to want to make it such an awful experience using your phones you are must want to bankrupt your company, I mean why else would you do that? Why make a phone so hard to customise that you give up after a couple of hours? Why restrict text message tones to the default ones only? tell me what that achieves what added benefit does your customer get from that? For my part its non.
    No as I said I will never buy another of your phones I simply will not pay hundreds of pounds on something that locks me out of even the most basic of functions as text mesage tones and makes other things like ringtones so convoluted and awkward that it gives you a headache.
    Your phone is quite simply rubbish no wonder you wont be around much longer.
    Yours

    how can I assign a specific ringtone to a contact

    You cannot assign a ringtone to a contact on a 6230i but you can assign ring tones to the various groups of contacts.
    First of all, place contacts in various groups i.e. family, friends, work etc. etc., then assign ringtones to the groups.
