IPhone 5 without purchased ringtones

My new iPhone 5 doesn't have the ringtones previously purchased from iTunes afer syncing up with iTunes 6. iTunes on my MacBook Pro doesn't even have a ringtone or tone tab to select to sync with. They also do not show up on my iTunes app on my phone under purchased; only the music, movies, and TV show previously purchased are seen and can be selected. Just want my ringtones back on my phone and assigned back to my contacts. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If your iTunes library doesn't contain any ringtones, you won't see the Tones tap in your iTunes sync settings. Also, purchased ringtones are not currently available for re-downloading. If yours are lost you can try contacting iTunes store support and they may give you a credit to repurchase them: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.

Re-download purchased ringtones

After upgrading to the iPhone 5, my purchased ringtones have disappeared. Is there a way to redownload purchased ringtones?

Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not all media formats are available in all countries (see: iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match Availability by Country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085); apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later. Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid. Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
You can re-download your available previous purchases.

How do I sync purchased ringtones to a new iPhone without the old iPhone

Is it possible to sync purchased ringtones to a new iPhone without the old iPhone

If you have copies of them on your computer's iTunes then you should be able to - if they show in the Tones part of your iTunes library then you should be able to sync them to your new phone. Or do you not have copies of them on your computer nor on your backup of your library ?

HT4528 if i purchased ringtones in itunes, and then updated my iphone 4 to ios6, how come my tones are gone and where can i retrieve them without re-buying them?

Yoy don't have to re-buying. Store knows you are the owner of these ringtones.

All of my purchased ringtones and songs dissapeared out of the blue. How do I get them back without having to buy them all over again?

Out of the blue, all of my purchased ringtones and music aren't displayed anymore on my iPhone.
I went to iTunes to see if they were stored there, but the downloads folder also appears to be empty. If I try to select a ringtone I've downloaded before, a popup appears saying that I've already purchased that item and asking if I want to cancel or buy. If I click on buy, then I pay for the item again even if I already have it! The only place I can still see my purchased items is in the iTunes application on my computer, but even though I've already selected sync, the ringtones and songs still won't appear on my iPhone.
What happeneded and how can I get them back without having to pay for them all over again?
Thank you!

I'm having the same problem on an iphone 4s running iOS8; when i updated to iOS8, all my ringtones went missing, and when i got a £50 gift card for christmas (2014), I purchased some songs from the iTunes store on my iPhone. i downloaded songs from paramore, panic! at the disco, coldplay, and imagine dragons, over wi-fi, and they went into my iphone music library; but when i re-opened the music app a few days later, in a place where i had no wi-fi, except for my 3G phone signal, some cloud icons appeared next to my newly purchased songs, telling me to re-download them from the cloud, when i haven't even deleted them. this has happened twice now, and i had to use up some of my 5GB data allowance to redownload them from the cloud. This is annoying and i need to fix this issue ASAP.

Try restoring from the backup created at the beginning of the sync process:
Without connecting your phone, open iTunes, go to Preferences, on the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically"
Connect your phone, right-click on the name of your phone when it appears on the left sidebar in iTunes
Select Restore from backup, choosing your most recent backup to restore from
Disconnect your phone and confirm that your photos are back
Go back to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and re-enable automatic syncing.

You would have to create the ringtones.
Google will find several way to do this.
You cannot buy ready made ringtones from your computer.

How do I download my purchased ringtones to my new iPhone?

Purchased ringtone iphone 4 that is not in my itunes library when i click transfer purchases from it appears in the tones library but in a paler shade of print with a dotted circle to the left of it when i take any action it disappears

have purchased ringtone on iphone 4 not in my itunes library when i click devices, transfer purchases from, it appears in tones in my library but in a paler shade of print with a dotted circle to the left of it, if i try to click on it or take any other action it disappears and leave a blank space i have tried this several time i want to transfer library to my new iphone 5 but i will loose the ringtone

I had the exact same issue!! Seriously p*ssed me off when I checked out my ITunes purchased items (via my computer) and noticed that most of the additional tracks listed on my IPhone playlist was listed there too. However, I never authorized any purchases!! (I have actually written Apple Support asking for a full refund of all tracks listed on my purchased list)
Be careful when you swipe your finger to the left/right on those "additional" tracks on your IPhone playlist... I'm pretty sure that the cloud symbol is an option to download or automatically buy those tracks.
Solution for the problem:
1 - go to your IPhone settings
2 - choose "iTunes & App Store"
3 - go to "Show All" & "Music"
4 - turn off "Music" by moving the bar to the left (it should be a white color once you turn it off)
Should solve your problem :~)

How do i update a iphone 4 to 7.o without purchasing more storage

most newer appts require at least a 7.0 operating system, how do i update to at least 7.0 without purchase more storage space.

Purchasing more storage will not magically give your iPhone more memory. Storage space is for iCloud storage. Delete unwanted apps; synch pictures to your computer and then delete them.

Ive purchased ringtones from itunes. They were assigned to contacts. I did the latest update and now now of them are in the list of ringtones. I've synced twice and they are not on my iphone. Does anyone know how to find them?

Ive purchased ringtones from Itunes. They were working before I did the recent update. I cannot find them on the iPhone and they are no longer assigned - I had five. I have synced several times and does anyone know where they are or how to assign them again?

On your iPhone tap Settings > Store
Make sure Music is switched on.
Now reset your iPhone.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

I synced my iphone before downloading newest update and now I've lost my purchased ringtones. How do I retrive them?

I synced my Iphone before downloading the newest update and lost all my purchased ringtones. How do I get them back and what do I do differently next time so it doesn't happen again?

I'm having the same problem. Mine do not show up in the purchased apps. It seems like I had this problem before with a different upgrade & was able to resolve it by emailing the question to Apple directly. Now I can't seem to find how to do that on their website or if it's even an option. I guess we're just supposed to solve these problems ourselves.
