How to set up different ring tone for Facetime

how to set up different ring tone for Facetime

I don't think that on an iPhone that FaceTime has a separate setting, you can only set a ringtone (which will apply to phone calls) via Settings > Sounds, or set different tones for different contacts via the Contacts app - but you can't have a separate sound for FaceTime

I set a Special Ring Tone for One of my contacts and now I want to set the standard tone again. How can I adjust the iPhone to always use the standard tone?

I set a Special Ring Tone for One of my contacts and now I want to set the standard tone again. How can I adjust the iPhone to always use the standard tone?

Yeah, I did. But if I go to settings and change the standard ring tone again, the ring tone for that special contact is still the old standard tone. But I want to 'tell' my iPhone/iPad that this contact should always have the standard ringtone from settings.

HT201684 In Yosemite this no longer works, has anyone figured this out? How to set a custom default umask for all applications?

In Yosemite this no longer works, has anyone figured this out? How to set a custom default umask for all applications?
I've tried everything to get a custom umask set for all apps. It just seems impossible...
Is there a replacement for launchd-user.conf?

Please file a bug report: https://bugreport.apple.com
I am sure this is something that got lost, like environment variables, in the Yosemite/iOS merger.

How can i set up different ring tones for email accounts?

Hello all,
I have about 6 different email accounts on my iPhone. From exchange server (work email) to my personal yahoo and google accounts plus my personal business account. Is there a possibility to set up different ringtones for each of the emails separately?
I monitor my email very closely as I work for a 24-7 emergency call center and I would like to have a way to differentiate my emails by the rintone assigned to them. My work email goes off all the time, but i can't tell which is which and I hate picking up my phone or stopping what i'm doing for just a junk email.
Also would there also be an option for high priority emails to have a different ringtone as well?
thank you so much for any info on this as this has been driving me crazy.

Set up ring tones for family won't work

Anyone have this problem??? I set up different ring tones for my 'family' - I was told I did set it up right, but for some reason it just does the default ring when those people call. (Default for me in the 'old phone' ring).... I called Apple and phone was 'reset' etc., they will call again today :-( I love my iPhone and do miss my old ring tone i had for them.
Any help thanks!

Thanks. I did see that troubleshooting guide and went through most, if not all, of the steps.
I neglected to mention in my original post that my home computer is a Mac. When I set up the iPad on the PC at work, I did tell it not to sync at that time because I wanted to wait and sync it at home. Now that iTunes on the home computer doesn't see the device, I can't figure out how to change that...

Custom ALERT TONE for iphone need HELP please.

I understand how to create a custom TONE as an M4R file and import into itunes into the TONES library.
When i sync my TONES to my iPhone, it lists as a RING tone.
My custom ring tones, which are approximately 10 sec long work just fine when set as my RING tone for incoming calls.
HOWEVER ....
What i am DESPERATELY trying to do is create a custom ALERT tone and have it LIST as an ALERT tone in my phone and NOT a ring tone. Seems custom tones do not work for sms alerts.
I searched EVERYWHERE and can not seem to find an answer. I realize apple wants us all to BUY alert tones, but i should be able to create my own too no?
I created some custom alert tones, approximately 1 sec long each. Converted them to M4R files and sync'd them to my phone.
In my phone they appear under the RING TONES list and not ALERT TONES.
Maybe this dosent matter, however, when i try to set my TEXT ALERT SOUND to one of my custom ALERT tones, they do NOT work. My text messages come in without playing the sound.
Can ANYONE PLEASE HELP ME figure out how to properly create a TONE as an ALERT TONE for my iphone?
HUGE THANKS to ANYONE that can help.

I've never been able to assign custom tones under alerts. It doesn't matter though as you can assign ringtones as alerts as of iOS 5 I believe. I had a similar issue with silent alerts, sometimes they would play, other times theywouldn't, but they would always play when selecting them under settings. Resetting all settings (not content) has so far fixed that issue for me. Try resetting your settings after you've synced your tones.

How can I create a new ring tone for my iPhone 4?

How can I create a new ring tone for my iPhone 4? I followed the Garage Band process and ended up with the ring tone I want as a AAC audio file. It got stored in my iTunes a a song rather than a ring tone. How do I make it a ring tone vs. a song? I tried dragging it t the Ring Tone category at the bottom of the ITunes list, but it won't alloow me to move it?

There's also an easy to use Applescript over at Doug's Applescripts for iTunes. It automates the whole thing. All you do is set the start and stop time on a file in iTuens and run the script. It will do everything else.

Different alerts for email and sms messages for a contact with custom ring tone

Hello,
I have a Curve 8530 with OS 5.0.0.395.
I have my default sound profile set up to play one type of alert sound when I receive and email message and another when I receive an SMS message (so I know the difference without looking at my phone). That works fine except for contacts that I also have a custom ring tone set up for. It seems that under the Custom Ring Tones/Alerts section of the contact there is only one entry for Messages and it applies to both email and SMS. If I have the contact's message alerts set to the alert I have for email, then their SMS messages play the same alert and I might think it's an email. Or if I have the messages alerts set to the SMS alert sound then their emails sound like SMS messages. Is there a way to have a custom ring tone set up for a contact but still allow their emails and SMS messgaes to follow the current sound profile's settings?
Thanks.

Hello,
Have you had any luck resolving this issue. I had a 8230 and this was possible. But like you I can get the 8530 to work. If you found the solution, please let me know.

Hi San,
Just to add a note to the great tips from Ingo and Bethany (+5 points each folks for your nice work here :)
Here we go :)
PCM File Requirements for Custom Ring Types
The PCM files for the rings must meet the following requirements for proper playback on Cisco Unified IP Phones:
â¢Raw PCM (no header)
â¢8000 samples per second
â¢8 bits per sample
â¢uLaw compression
â¢Maximum ring size-16080 samples
â¢Minimum ring size-240 samples
â¢Number of samples in the ring is evenly divisible by 240.
â¢Ring starts and ends at the zero crossing.
â¢To create PCM files for custom phone rings, you can use any standard audio editing packages that support these file format requirements.
Configuring a Custom Phone Ring
To create custom phone rings for the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7965G and 7945G, follow these steps:
Procedure
Step 1 Create a PCM file for each custom ring (one ring per file). Ensure the PCM files comply with the format guidelines that are listed in the "PCM File Requirements for Custom Ring Types" section.
Step 2 Upload the new PCM files that you created to the Cisco TFTP server for each Cisco Unified Communications Manager in your cluster. For more information, see the "Software Upgrades" chapter in Cisco Unified Communications Operating System Administration Guide.
Step 3 Use a text editor to edit the Ringlist.xml file. See the "Ringlist.xml File Format Requirements" section for information about how to format this file and for a sample Ringlist.xml file.
Step 4 Save your modifications and close the Ringlist.xml file.
Step 5 To cache the new Ringlist.xml file, stop and start the TFTP service by using Cisco Unified Serviceability or disable and re-enable the "Enable Caching of Constant and Bin Files at Startup" TFTP service parameter (located in the Advanced Service Parameters).

PS: Interesting tunes from your link Bethany, I'd love to hear "Scar Tissue" as a ringtone, pretty cool :)

HT201269 I downloaded the iOS7, lost all the custom ring tones that I had on my phone, how do i get them back. when I sync my phone, itunes says that they have been selected, but they don't show up on my phone

I downloaded the iOS7, lost all the custom ring tones that I had on my phone. the iTunes sync page says that they have all been selected but they don't show up in my phone? Help?

I had the same problem and was able to fix it. Go to your iTunes and click on the Tones folder on the left under library. Some of my ring tones had an exclamation mark next to it and those were the ones that did not sync. You have to click on those and find it in your computer. Once the exclamation mark is gone, go to Tones section of your device in iTunes, make sure you select the tones you want synced, and click apply. I hope that helps you!

Help! Custom Ring tones

Hi there wonder if anybody can help me!
Trying to set custom ringtones for individuals on my contact list.
Firstly going to Address book and selecting the contact I want to custom ring tone. Then pressing the menu button and selecting the Add custom ringtone option. But this does not give me an option of selecting a ring tone from my media card. The only option I get is pre loaded ringtones which I do not want to use....

Check the link below:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/rim/board/message?board.id=BlackBerryDesktopSoftware&message.id=...
there is instruction how to setup your desktop pc and blackberry device to recognize media-sd card installed on your blackberry as an external flash-drive on desktop computer.
After your device with media card inside recognized as flash drive transfer mp3 files to Blackberry/ringtones folder of that external flash drive.
And after that these mp3 files will be available to set'em as custom ringtones in Address Book.
