Adding ringtones without iTunes syncing?

Is it possible to add .m4r ringtones to my iPhone 5 without using iTunes to sync?

No.  Apple really has us locked into iTunes to prevent pirating and sharing.  This is really does mar the user experience as far as most people are concerned.  Because some people share songs, ringtones, movies, etc.  We all have to play in the iTunes Sandbox.

  • Adding videos without iTunes!

    I have a 30GB iPod and I want link from where I can download a software that can be used for adding videos in iPod without iTunes.
    I need that software because whenever I try to add videos to my iPod using iTunes, it displays the error like this:-
    " iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to be closed.We are sorry for inconvenience."
    So, please send me any link from where I can download such software free!
    Thank You.

    Same Here.
    iTunes doesn't work for me, I need software that will allow me to sync Videos DIRECTLY to my iPod.

  • Adding Content Without Completely Syncing iPhone

    Is there any way to add new content (i.e.- Ringtones, Pictures, etc.) to my iPhone without completely erasing and reloading my phone. Because I'm using a different computer than normal and I don't want my other content over-written, but I'd like to add 2 new ringtones.

    You can set the iPhone to manually manage music and videos in iTunes. You then click the apply button. Now you can click on the iPhone in the left pane and drag and drop music and videos and ringtones without syncing. I'm not sure about photos, I haven't tried that yet.

  • Can I charge Nano on any PC over USB, without iTunes sync?

    Can I just plug the ipod into any PC with the usb cord, to get a charge? My work PC will not allow me to install itunes.
    thanks

    Yes, you can. Any computer with a USB port can be used to charge an iPod, with or without iTunes. Just be careful to use the Safely remove Hardware icon or one of the non iTunes methods to eject the iPod that you'll find in this link: Safely Disconnect IPod

  • Download free ringtones without itunes?

    Is there any way to download free ringtones directly to my Iphone without having to go thru Itunes or sync from my laptop? Droid allows you to download straight to the phone but I can't get my Iphone to do it. Has anyone found a way to do this? Using Itunes to do this is a hassle and is time consuming. Maybe I should have bought a Droid.

    You can take music and turn them into ringtones for free with ringtone app. Download songs from your old CDs onto iTunes on computer then sync iPhone. After that use ringtone app then follow app directions you might sync phone to computer to put ringtone in right spot on phone. It will tell you how to after you make to ringtone on your phone.

  • IPhone5 will not vibrate on silent when using custom ringtone from iTunes sync

    Hello,
    I've troubleshot this one to death and came to find that my iPhone5 will not vibrate in silent mode when the audible tone is set to a tone synced to the device from iTunes.
    I've found that the phone DOES vibrate on silent when the audible ringtone is set to a tone that comes with the Phone out of the box.
    Any advice on how to rectify this would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    DP

    I have this same issue, I havent been able to sync my phone since May 15th.  I am using Itunes 11.0.3 and I have an Iphone 5.  I reset my phone and deleted Itunes and reset sync history, all of which didnt work.  I have already turned in my Macbook pro because of its buggy ways and I am thinkin I am going to have to leave the iphone if this doesnt get fixed.  "Itunes was unable to load data class information from sync services.  Please try again later.  I have also removed norton and that didnt fix it.  Apple is such a dispapointment anymore. I used to reccomend them but now I tell people to stay away.
    Its driving me nuts, I was wondering how you fixed this.
    Thank you

  • Adding Calendar to Itunes & Syncing

    Hi when I sync my iphone up, I have no options to add a calendar. The only time I did was when I had to restore my settings and I do not want to do this again and lose everything. I should have clicked on the windows calendar option but I didn't as I wasn't aware it was the one I could use!
    I used my iphone calendar but lost info the time I had to restore. How can I get calendar options back in itunes in order to sync? Do I need to contact Apple?

    The option to choose calendar(s) to sync is on the Info tab in iTunes (with the iPhone connected and selected in the Devices list). You must first check the box to sync calendars, then you can choose which calendars to sync.

  • Problems adding songs to iTunes/syncing

    Hi there,
    So I recently got a new 160g iPod, and went through the trouble of cleaning up my library. When i attempted to Sync all 9k songs i had, only about 2-3k actually made it to my ipod. So i reset my ipod to factory settings, uninstalled itunes and tried to reinstal itunes, and throw all my music back onto itunes. Now whenever I open itunes it says "analyzing music" at the top, as if i just dragged a bunch of new music into my itunes, and claims it will analyze roughly 5k songs. Well whenever this happens my itunes decides to crash and stop working. Im not sure if it is an iTunes problem, or my computers problem. here is the most recent (of many) crash reports. Any help is appreciated, just trying to get some tunes on my ipod.

    Im sure someone will know better than me how to fix this but you could try opening windows exploror and going to the folder the songs are located in, rightclick the song, select "Open With" and pick iTunes. That might force iTunes to open and add the song then
    I Know iTUnes has issues with MP#s and corrupt ID3 tags attacted to them. you can search the net for a program called "TidyMP3" to fix corrupt tags if you have them

  • IMovie 6.0.3 timeline conundrum: adding photo without losing sync

    How does one add a photo to an existing video with audio in 6.0.3 so that it simply replaces, for example, 5 seconds of the video WITHOUT moving the rest of the video?  IOW, I don't want the video or audio to move at all, just for the inserted image to replace the 5 seconds of video at that place.  I can't seem to do it without the video shifting 5 seconds.  I have extracted the audio and tried every combination of locking audio and dragging the photo to no avail.
    Obviously it's a simple thing, but I can't find any reference to this in any literature!  :  )    Thanks.

  • Adding songs without itunes

    is it possible?
    itunes doesn't work on my computer.

    There are a few iTunes alternatives you could have a look at, Anapod, XPlay or EphPod are just some of them. However as suggested above, if you post your issues in the iTunes forum you may get a resolution to whatever is going wrong:
    Anapod Explorer
    XPlay 2
    EphPod
    These programs will all let you manage an iPod however there are a couple of things that they won't do:
    a) You won't be able to update the firmware on your iPod if a new version comes along. The iPod software updater is integrated into iTunes 7
    b) If purchasing iTunes Music is something you wanted to do you won't be able to buy from the iTunes Music store.

  • Can I add tunes and photos to my Nano and use them on it without iTunes?

    I'm going traveling round SE Asia and Australia for the next year or more you see and it'd be nice if I could add tunes to it on the way or at least put my pics on it and be able to see them in the photo viewer on my iPod. I'm guessing that I've not got much chance of adding tunes without iTunes after looking at where the tunes were stored on my Nano through Explorer but I was hoping maybe pics were easier to sort? If not then I'll just put them on it as a normal flash drive but if there is a way to sort it so I can view them that way then any help would be appreciated, ta...

    I don't think it's possible to add pics or tunes without iTunes. Sorry

  • Cannot add and Sync ringtones in Itunes

    Hi, I have gotten a new 16GB Iphone and it works perfectly with Itunes 8.02.20 except the ringtones I added in itunes, it doesnt sync (or even show up in my Iphone Ringtones tab). I have tried many M4R but it still doesnt work. Those m4r shownin my LIBRARY -> RINGTONES but it just wont sync with my iphone (I already Ticked on the Sync all ringtones under my iphone).
    I did hardreset and restore also the same. Any expert pls help. Really appreciate. Many thanks.

    It sounds like you bough the song only, not the song and the ringtone.
    Ringtones via itunes are available in the U.S. only.
    In the U.S. to make a ringtone you:
    Buy the song with a bell - 99 cents
    Find the song in your library and click the bell
    This bring up the editor.
    You edit the song to the portion you want.
    Then click buy to purchase the ringtone - another 99 cents.
    Then it shows up in ringtones and you can sync.
    As I said, this method of creating ringtones is available in the U.S. only.
    There are, however, many ways to make ringtones:

  • Adding Vedio to iTune and Sync them to iPhone

    Hi
    i dont know why when i chose vedio files to add them to iTunes to sync with iPhone thay are not added just 3gp files are added and iTunes dont sync them it says iPhone dont support such type, and when i use some softwares to convert vedios to iTune vedio types such as mp4 they are not added when i try to add them to vedio library, also when i add 3gp files to my vedio libaray then convert them to iPhone format by iTunes the voice is very destorted in the new file any help ?

    Welcome to the forums.
    After you convert your files to MPEG4 how are you adding them to iTunes? You must drag and drop them from Windows Explorer over into the iTunes library -- open up both Windows and do this and I promise you they will show up (in the "Movies" tab).
    3GP cannot be synced to the iPhone without conversion, but using iTunes to convert isn't always the best way. If you have Quicktime Pro that may be the best solution.
