How to's of Ringtones and Ringback tones

I purchased a couple of ringtones from VZN store and only one came through on the Text Message. I followed the instructions to save it to my phone but the options do not give me a "Save" option. Therefore, it doesn't show up in my Ringtones under settings. How do I fix that?

It's not at all stupid. You do not have to plug into a computer to do it, but you can if you want to.
There should be an app in your app drawer call "Files". Once in the app select "Phone files" and you will see the files on your SD card. If you then press your menu button (the one on the far left with the four squares) you will get a pop up menu with the option to create a new folder.
To move files around, simply long press on a file and select "move". Then navigate whereever you want the file to be located and use the button on the bottom of the screen to move it there.
To acess your SD card from a computer, use the USB cord that came with the phone. Once your phone is connected, there should be a USB symbol on your notification bar. Drag the bar down and touch the USB notification to bring up a menu, and be sure to select the "Mass storage" option. Now your computer should see your SD card as a drive.

How to keep custom ringtones and text tones in iOS 7

....

Yup - looks like you can only copy the entire text from the Message app and the email app lets you 'select' or 'Select All'.

I downloaded ringtones and text tones then got a new phone. How do I get them on the new phone?

Transfer your purchases from old iPhone to computer iTunes, then select tones in iTunes with your new iPhone connected, do a sync.

Hi jaswantfromlondon,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact context for when or how these tones disappeared. If your tones have disappeared and you are having issues restoring them, you may find the information and steps outlined in the following article helpful (it refers specifically to 8.1.1, but the steps may more generally apply to your situation):

Hello,
I wish to transfer my iPhone m4r ringtones/notification tones/alarms to my new Xperia Z3 phone - so how to do this? I created those tones by Ringtonium app so those tones are not bought ones. Those files are on my Mac laptop. I tried to use Xperia Transfer Mobile to transfer those files but it didn´t accept. I could find them - even made a folder for those files but they just appered to be gray colored meaning that I can´t select them even I could see them :-(. If possible to transfer them somehow I would be very thankful - just wouldn´t like to make them once again as there are plenty of them....
Many thanks in advance for your help :-)

[N95 8Gb] No more MP3 ringtones and message tones....

Hi,
Last night I cleared my N95 8Gb of all the music and tranferred some new albums with Nokia Music afterwards. Now I'm not able to select any song or sound effect from my music collection as ringtone anymore!!
I can select a song in Music Player and set it as ringtone but I cannot go via settings and browse my MP3's... The same goes for message tones: I'm only able to select the standard **bleep** ringtones and none of the sound effects I uploaded as MP3 using Nokia Music.
I beginning to be amazed at how **bleep** Nokia Music can possibly be: before, everything worked like a charm and I was totally pleased with my N95 8Gb but now I can't even do the most basic things due to this piece of junk that Nokia calls Nokia Music...

I have a similar problem (N95-1). All the songs i have (about 400+) will not show up. When i remove the memory card, all the songs on the phone shows up. Try this fix (I am using the latest firmware).
Navigate to the Home Media App (Main Menu>Tools>Connectivity>Home Media), Share Content: Select Options (Left Softkey), then refresh contents. It will take some time depending on the number of songs, videos and photos you have. After it has finished refreshing, you should be able to select any song from the phone or memory card from within the tones menu.

Anyone know how to create a ringtone and drag it into your iPhone 4s ?

I have downloaded various apps in order to cut a section of music of approimately 36 seconds and have been successful in getting it on to my desktop. I have then taken it into iTunes no problem converted it to aac format AND OR m4r.but it will not drag into my phone tones section. In fact it say on my iTunes (tones) not (ringtones) and its the same when my device is highlighted it says tones also. Can anyone help as i feel that as I have already purchased my music from Apple I should not have to pay again to use a section of music I have paid for already.
Using windows xp OS.
Kind regards
PAUL.

Is this ringtone in the "Tones" section of your iTunes library? Does it play in iTunes? If you answer yes to both of those questions, drag the "Tone" to the actual iPhone icon in the left device pane.

Itunes ringtones and text tones not working??

I downloaded a ring tone and a text tone, from the itunes store,and it was working great for about three weeks. I lost charge on my phone yesterday and soon as I powered back up the default ringtones have seemed to take over even though my tones are set to the two tones I downloaded. any answers to why? or is there a fix available? I also have the latest software update iOS 8.1.2 on my iphone6.

Try doing a hard reboot of the iPhone
1. hold the power and home buttons down
2. you will see the "swipe to turn off" screen come up... KEEP HOLDING THE BUTTONS
3. The screen will go black (turn off)... KEEP HOLDING THE BUTTONS
4. A white Apple logo will appear on the screen, now you can release the buttons. Left the iPhone boot... should only take a couple minutes.

How can I can ringtones and music I purchased from itune back on my iPhone5,please help

how can I get back music and ringtones I purchased from itune back on my iPhone 5

What you can try to do is install an extension such as Ad-Block Plus, [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus], which will block many different forms of advertising.
Also, update your Firefox to version 12, and update your plugins to make sure you stay on top of security threats :) [http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/ http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/].
If that fails to work, there is a possibility you might be infected with viruses, try Download and Install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full Scan. [http://www.malwarebytes.org/ http://www.malwarebytes.org/]
Download and Run TDSSKiller [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363]
Download and Install Microsoft Security Essentials [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials] (not an official endorsement, but I personally recommend MSE as an awesome permanent anti-virus)
Double check for all Windows Updates.

How to change volume on your ringBACK tones?

It's way too loud, but I don't know how to change it. Curve 9300 THANKS!

Yea, I went to AT&T store and they told me that volume cannot be controlled on ringbacks... My g/f said to me that it was too loud and I called myself up and it was waaaaay too loud, so I just cancelled ringbacks altogether.
Thank you for your replay anyway.
Have a good one.

Ringtones and Text Tones No Longer Work in IOS 8 upgrade

I have an Iphone 5S and recently did the upgrade to IOS 8... I know better i should have waited a year to upgrade but I stupidly did. Today all my tones and ringtones are stuck on default and will not change to the selected.
Phone has also crashed. Went into restore mode.
system restore did nothing, so its in software..
any suggestions, These are purchased ringtones through itunes,
thanks

I am having a similar issue. I have an iPhone 5, and after updating to iOS 8 it uses the ringtone I have set as my default.. but will not keep the ringtones I have set for one person. I go back in and change it, and five minutes later it's back to the default ringtone. And it keeps doing this.
Help?
