2 Iphones, 1 Itunes lost ringtones

Both my wife and I have Iphones with our own itunes accounts. We have itunes on our PC and use this for our downloads etc.
The problem i have is that my wife has purchased 2 ringtones from Itunes (downloaded straight to phone) which worked fine until i Sync it to Itunes and then it disappeared off her phone and i can't find it anywhere on Itunes.
I have also purchased a ringtone but have just sync my phone to Itunes and it has also been taken off my phone but is in the 'Purchased' part of Itunes. I can't seem to copy it to my phone and if i try to play it on the PC it states the PC is not authorised and gives the iption to authorise it, which i do, and it then states that it is already authorised.
Any suggestions as to where i will be able to find the missing ringtones and how to copy them to the phones again

I am having the exact same problem. I have purchased around 12 ringtones or so, and my old computer crashed completely.
Since then, I am afraid to sync my iPhone to my new system due to the fact it states I will lose -all- ringtones / songs on the phone, which apparently I cant find a way to re-download through iTunes without purchasing a brand new copy of the file.

  • IPhone 3g lost ringtones after loading the latest update.  I see one of the many but cannot get the others to sync.  Any ideas?

    After recent update, cannot find my ringtones.  Tried syncing and they don't come back.  Only 1 list in the contacts to be selected.  Tried to sync the ringtones by themselves and it still won't sync them back to the phone.

    These are iTune purchased ringtones.

  • Iphone 6 lost ringtones

    I have searched this and found numerous threads on this but none of the fixes highlighted in them worked for me.  In essence, I bought new ringtones and they installed and I set them as the default.  They showed up in iTunes and everything.
    Then the phone reverted to the default ringtone and the ringtones I bought were no longer on the phone, they were in iTunes and when I tried to sync them they became greyed out.
    So how do I fix this??  Very frustrating.

    I didn't check against iTunes, but after upgrade to 8.1.1 I have lost my ringtones on the phone. When i went to store on phone they looked like not purchased. How should I proceed?
    PS
    Of course ringotes bought by apple/itunes store

  • Syncing photos via iTunes - getting new error message" "the iphone could not be synced because the connection to iphone was lost"

    I am trying to sync photos in a dedicated file on my desktop with the photo library on my iPhone 4S.  Something I have done many times before. 
    Since upgrading to iTunes 11 I get this message "the iphone could not be synced because the connection to iphone was lost" midway through the sync.  I do not understand this as I am syncing via the USB lead, so how can the connection be lost?
    Bascially I just want to update the photos on my iPhone with new photos I have added to the file I use on my computer.
    Any help or ideas would be gratefully received.  Thanks.

    This may help you

  • I erased everything on my iphone and lost all my contacts pictures and everything how do i get all that back from my itunes account??

    I erased everything on my iphone and lost all my contacts pictures and everything else how do i get the contacts and pictures back from my itunes account?? ive tried restore its like it gave me a whole new iphone thing.

    If you plug in the iPhone to your computer, any contacts ect that you synced with your computer with sync back with the iPhone when it is selected in the iTunes menu under info. Anything that was added without syncing was lost, I'm sorry. A good future solution is to get iOS 5 when it comes out this fall, so you don't need to manually sync contacts, its automatic!
    Best Regards

  • I had my computer worked on.  When I got it back I had to reinstall itunes.  When I synced my iphone, I lost all my contacts.  How do I get them back?

    I had my computer worked on recently.  When I got it back, I had to reinstall itunes.  I synced my iphone and lost all my contacts.  How do I get them back?

    Synch your contacts back from whichever program on your computer you've stored them in (Outlook, Address Book) or from your cloud service.
    Not using your phone as indended and didn't have your contacts on your computer or with a cloud service?  Then they're gone.

  • Updated my iphone 3gs, lost my music and apps, they are backed up on itunes, how do I move them back to my phone, tried to sync but not working, please help

    Updated my iphone 3gs, lost my music and apps, they are backed up on my computer but i cannot move them over to my phone, tried to sync but not working, please help

    well first make sure that when you click on the name of your iphone on the left hand side of itunes that you go to the app and music tab and check mark the sync apps and sync music. then try clicking apply in the bottom right hand corner. then if not try doing it again after going to prefrences in the top menu and going to devices tab and click reset sync history if that doesnt work with music try and drop and drag to the name of your iphone, lastly if that doesnt work you can try restoring from a backup from before you updated. it will keep the new software but put everything that was on your phone when you created the backup back onto your phone.

  • I updated my iphone and lost all my notes there is lots of important notes, how can i get em back especially that on itunes when i sync my iphone a note appear that there is no back up on icloud,and i cannot restore?

    i updated my iphone and lost all my notes there is lots of important notes, how can i get em back especially that on itunes when i sync my iphone a note appear that there is no back up on icloud,and i cannot restore?

    Without a backup on iCloud, there needs to be another device using the same @icloud address that is syncing to the notes.  Without that, there is no way to go back in time to create a backup before performing a major update.

  • My computor crashed. All my songs in my itunes library were lost. After I restarted my computor, I started a new library with new itune songs. When I tried to download them on my iphone, itunes wanted to get rid of my old songs on my iphone. What can I do

    My computor crashed. I lost my music from my itune library. After I restarted my computor to work again, I started a new itune library with new songs. When I tried to download my new songs to my iphone, itunes said it had to erase all my old songs in order to install the new songs. Is there a way to install new songs without getting rid of my old songs?

    That is the way the iphone works.
    You need to copy everything from your backup copy of your computer.

    Okay... but then there's nothing there? It just says "There are no purchased movies to be downloaded" (roughly translated from Danish)...

  • I was using itunes to back up my iphone and lost my phone. Can I get my contacts from itunes?

    I was using itunes to back up my iphone and lost my phone. Can I get my contacts from itunes?

    There are a couple of iOS Backup Extractor programs that can read data from the backup sets. I've not personally tested any so I don't have a recommendation.

  • IPhone 6 connection to iTunes lost

    I have a new iPhone 6 and my MacBook Pro is completely updated to Yosemite.  Since the update I've never successfully been able to complete a full sync of my data to my iPhone 6.  Each time I connect via the usb my phone makes it through the back up but then i get this message "The iPhone could not be synced because the connection to the iPhone was lost.
    i've tried a new cable.  A different usb port.  I've restated my computer.  Etc etc.  Any suggestions?  I'm at a loss.

    If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

  • Lost ringtone

    i bought a ringtone on my iphone and can't find it. It asks for my password to confirm my login then once I type it, it dissapears and I check the phone and it's not there. I have done this two times and nothing.

    I did a complete reinstall of iTunes 7.4.2 - that seems to have corrected the issue ! Seems as if the software update caused the glitch. The lost ringtone has reappeared. The iTunes support was helpful in that they were willing to credit me - although they suggested it was my fault not backing up ! The m4r was located but it was just not recognized by iTunes.
    So for those experiencing difficulties - try a full reinstall of iTunes.
