Buying ringtones from itunes on iphone

I've gone through settings>sounds>ringtones and clicked store in the top right. When I get there and find a tone that I want, I click 'buy tone' but nothing happens. It has asked me if I want to assign to a contact or set as default, but after that nothing. What's going on here?
Thanks!
ps. I did search for answers to this for 3 days before coming here to ask.

  • How do I get ringtone from iTunes to iPhone?

    I bought a ringtone from iTunes, but it downloaded itself to 'Music' folder instead of the 'Tones' folder. I can sync it to my iPhone (in the music folder) but cannot select it as a ringtone. Bizarre!
    In addition, the inflexibility of iTunes means that I cannot simply drag and drop the ringtone to the tones folder in iTunes on my mac prior to sync. No idea why?
    Can anyone help? In short, how do I get my iTunes purchased ring tone in to the ringtones folder on my iPhone. Surely it cannot be so unecessarily complicated ...?
    Thanks.

    You probably purchased a song that was designed to be converted to a ringtone.  To confirm this, right-click on the file in iTunes, select "Get Info", then verify on the Summary tab that ie says "Kind:Ringtone".  If it doesn't, you must frst convert it to a ringtone, then import the converted file into the Tones folder of your iTunes library in order to sync it to your phone.  This video will show you how to do this: http://cnettv.cnet.com/create-free-ringtones-itunes-10/9742-1_53-50093086.html.  (If you're using iTunes 11, first go to View>Show Sidebar in order to follow along with the video.)

  • Can't sync personal ringtone from iTunes to iPhone 6 plus

    Hi
    I have created a personal ringtone , a 20 sec clip. I saved it as an arc and renamed it to .M4R
    I added it to iTunes which correctly put it in the tones folder. I connected my iPhone - checked the sync tones option /all
    and hit sync.
    The ringtone refuses to come across.
    I am using iOS 8.1 and iTunes v12.0.1.26
    any help would be great
    thanks
    Tony

    Hello,
    I just discovered something yesterday as I was having the exact problems. Here are some questions that I'll ask with my comments next to them.
    1. Did you burn CDs onto your computer's hard-drive? If so, your iTunes will treat these files differently than if you had used iTunes or downloaded an .mp3. There are quite a few different formats which can be played on your iTunes or iPhone. They are: .mp3, .wav, .m4a, and more . I have no problems with the .mp3 format, but I do have problems with the other formats. I believe that you would have to convert your format of your song from, let's say, a .m4a to a .aac. Then, I delete the .m4a format to avoid redundancies.
    This was my biggest issue, and I hate it. It's very cumbersome. I hate iTunes, in general.

    I have changed my apple id, and its ok when i sync my Iphone with Itunes, but ON my Iphone still my old apple-ID is there. I can NOT buy things from Itunes or Upgrade anything now, how to fix this?

    I recently changed my email address and want to change my Apple ID account to match. I have created a new Apple ID to match the new account but now I can't sign into iCloud on our phones or computer with the old Apple ID. I can't make any changes on iCloud on our phones because it directs me to the old account, which I can't sign into. I also can't sign me in on my computer to make any changes. Help!!! Now I have two addresses and can't access the one that directly affects my devices. 

  • Ringtone will not sync from iTunes to iPhone

    I downloaded a free silent ringtone, and dragged it into iTunes "Tones."  Then I synced my iPhone with iTunes.  I went to change the ringtone of an unwanted caller to silent, but it was not in the list. So then I went back into iTunes, and dragged the silent tone into the "Tones" section under "Devices", "MyiPhone." After syncing, the downloaded ringtone still doesn't show up in the list of ringtones or alert tones on my iPhone.
    I've read roughly 20 threads on this message board of people with a similar problem, but I have not found an explanation of what I need to do to get the downloaded ringtone from iTunes to my iPhone.  Any help will be greatly appreciated!
    I have an iPhone 4s and the most recent version of iTunes installed on a Windows 7 machine.  Thank you.

    Thank you so much for your reply JackeeJax.  The problem is not actually getting the file to show up in iTunes under "Tones," but rather transferring from iTunes to my iPhone when they sync.
    I guess I'll never know why that silent ringtone wouldn't show up in my iPhone ringtones.  Since starting this thread I have tested the process with several other normal ringtones, and it works just fine.  Maybe the iPhone detected that the ringtone was silent and refused it, idk.  It's strange that the ringtone shows up in iTunes under the iPhone's "Tones", but then is nowhere to be found on the iPhone itself.  If only Apple allowed users to browse directories, maybe I could figure it out. In any event, it was worth the $1.29 to get a silent ringtone on my iPhone.  Gotta screen those telemarketers!

  • I downloaded Ringtone from iTunes into my iPhone 6 and set it as the default Ringtone. Worked well until I had to recharge my phone. Now disappearred from my iPhone but shows in Tones when phone sync'd. How do I get to show back as default Ringtone

    I downloaded a Ringtone from iTunes into my iPhone 6 and set it as the default Ringtone.Worked well until I had to recharge my phone.The Ringtone has now disappeared from my iPhone and I'm left with just the Ringtones that come standard with iPhone 6. I sync'd my phone and it shows in the Tones folder. How do I get the Ringtone back as a default Ringtone in my iPhone 6. Quite frustrating!!

    In iTunes, try signing out of your Apple ID & then back in: click on iTunes Store on the left sidebar of iTunes, click on your Apple ID on the top right, sign out, sign back in.  Then try to sync your purchased music to your phone again.

  • Can't drag and drop apps and ringtones from itunes into the iphone.

    I'm sure it's something that I have to enable in itunes or the iphone, but I can't seem to drag and drop my apps or ringtones from itunes. This started when I got a replacement phone from my provider. I can't transfer them on my itunes. I get a block icon when I try to drag and drop. So the only way to get all the apps back is by re-downloading on the phone itself, but some apps are huge and I wouldn't want to do that. All the apps I backed up and even new ones I purchased can't seem to transfer. I tried deauthorizing and authorizing, re-downloading apps, syncing. So far nothing. Any tips?

    Thanks for trying but your answer is incorrect, according to an email I received today from HP Connected:
    "I have reviewed your email. I understand that you have questions related to rearranging the order of the apps on the printer. I know this can be frustrating, and I want you to know you're certainly valuable to us and I want to do everything possible to ensure your complete satisfaction. The following information should provide the answers you need:
    1) Unfortunately when HP launched the new website (www.hpconnected.com) they did not include a method of rearranging the apps on the printer. They may include this feature in a future update, however as this time it is not available.
    2) If you have made the upgrade from eprintcenter to HP Connected you do not have the option of returning. Eprintcenter is in the process of being eliminated and unfortunately retuning to the old site is not possible."
    I hope <<S-O-O-N>> HP fixes this new website -- it's crazy to take away any controls like this from their customers and not either embellish them or at least leave them be.
    I may take this 7610 OJ back for a new Brother 11x17 all-in-one --- they look nice )

  • I bought a ringtone from Itunes, after I synched my Iphone 4, the ringtone is gone - why?

    Does anyone know how to retrieve a purchased ringtone from Itunes?
    I bought one last week, and after I synched my Iphone 4 my purchased ringtone is gone. I have the Itunes receipt, but keep getting caught in a big loop when I try to report a problem. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
    Carter

    I am having the same problem. I downloaded it from my 4S and my ITunes account shows it was downloaded. It's not listed in the ringtones on my 4S. When I open ITunes, and plug in my 4S, I can look at the media on my device. There is a checkmark next to it and a circle to the far left, but it is not on my phone. This has not happened before. Hopefully there will be an answer soon.

  • 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.

  • HT1751 Few days back i bought 8 ringtones from my iphone application for itunes and when yesterday I sync it with itunes all my ringtones washed off. I tried to again download the same ringtones from itunes then it again asked for payment. Why?

    Few days back i bought 8 ringtones from my iphone application for itunes and when yesterday I sync it with itunes all my ringtones washed off. I tried to again download the same ringtones from itunes then it again asked for payment. Why?

    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)
