First create a ringtone from your song in iTunes, then sync it to your phone.  See

  • How do i set a song in my Music folder on my iPhone 5s as a ringtone

    how do i set a song in my Music folder on my iPhone 5s as a ring tone?

    You need to create a ringtone from your song using itunes (see Create free ringtones with iTunes 10), then select it on the Tones tab of your iTunes sync settings and sync it to your phone.  Once synced to your phone you will find it in Settings>Sounds>Ringtone at the top of the list.  (If you're using iTunes 11 you may need to go to View>Show Sidebar to follow the process shown in the linked video.)

    I am having the same problem. Why do we keep using Apple when their support is so pitiful? You cannot contact Apple about problems. Hopefully they will eventually correct the problem. Good Luck.

    how to set my song in the playlist to be my ringtone

    you have to convert it to a ringtone first. searching google will give you many ways to do it. also, there are some ringtone apps with pros and cons to each one. you cannot just pick a song on your phone and make it a ringtone unfourtunately.

  • Can't find a song in the music store

    Hi! I want to download a song, but it only appears remixed, and I want it original, plain. Is there a way to request a song?

    I have the latest iTunes version and haven't seen that feature.
    From the iTunes menu bar you will find it at iTunes>Provide iTunes Feedback.
    It is also on the main iPod +iTunes page. Click on the iPod + iTunes tab at the top of this page and look near the bottom, its in small type with a pencil icon next to it.
    Hope this helps.

    Hi akamsj
    The file is a backup file, you can't open.
    If you wipe your device you can use this file to backup all the information in the device.
    You need to locate the file with Application Loader in Blackberry Desktop Manager.

  • No songs show up in Owner's iPod when i remove them from the Music folder..

    every time i transfer music to my Shuffle, and then remove the songs from the Music folder under Library, they won't show up in Owner's iPod whenever i connect my Shuffle to my PC. if i don't remove the songs from the Music folder under Library, they will show up in Owner's iPod every time i connect my Shuffle. i don't get it. the capacity is right, and i know there are songs on the Shuffle, but there's no way to maintain the playlist of songs (for example, remove a few songs and keep the others) because none of them show up in Owner's Ipod...
    i also had another problem, that i was able to fix, with my wireless keyboard and mouse. whenever i removed the Shuffle from the USB connector, the lights on my keyboard and mouse remote would go out, and my keyboard and mouse would disconnect. also, the screen would turn gray, and i would have to hold the power butten down on the PC to get it to shut down. i changed the USB port i was using for the Shuffle, and that seemed to fix it, but i think that it's wierd that i moved my iPod Mini to that USB port and it doesn't do that when i remove it. anyway, i changed USB ports, and it works fine now, but i don't think it's a problem on my end because my iPod Mini works fine in that port. i think it's a software bug with the Shuffle...

    they won't show up in Owner's iPod whenever i connect
    my Shuffle to my PC. if i don't remove the songs from
    the Music folder under Library, they will show up in

    Solution: Don't do that...
    Explanation: iTunes "updates" Shuffle each time it's connected. IF the Shuffle contains songs NOT in iTunes' library, they are removed from the Shuffle. THAT is the way it works.

  • On iTunes 11, how can I access home sharing if the music is from a CD? Is there any way I can download these songs if (A) I no longer have the CD, or (B) I do not want to pay $25 a year for iTunes Match?

    On iTunes 11, how can I access home sharing if the music is from a CD on a different computer using Home Sharing? Is there any way I can download these songs if (A) I no longer have the CD, or (B) I do not want to pay $25 a year for iTunes Match?

    Yes, you can copy songs that you ripped from a CD to your Home Sharing computer.
    Turn on Home Sharing first on both computers.  To do that, go to File > Home Sharing > Turn on Home Sharing.  Enter your Apple ID and password.
    Now go to your computer that you want to copy the songs to and connect to your Home Share.  You can do that by clicking on the popover button located at the left top corner right below the play control buttons.  Click on it and scroll to the bottom until you see your Home Share and select it.
    Go to Music in your Home Share.  Select the songs that you want to copy in your Home Share and click Import at the bottom right corner.

  • I deleted some of songs by iPhone.but now it until shows all that songs.they seems partially visible not like other song totally black.actual songs are 701 shown in setting.in the music it shows 901. How can I permanently delete them???

    I  cannt synk them to iTunes because lots of songs are not in iTunes now. This will delete my lots of songs.
    I deleted some of songs by iPhone.but now it until shows all that songs.they seems partially visible not like other song totally black.actual songs are 701 shown in setting.in the music it shows 901. How can I permanently delete them???

    I called Apple and spoke with a customer service representative regarding this issue. I was given the two things to try, and if they don't work, I was told I can call back in:
    1. Go to iCloud.com and look at the advanced options. Since Photos can be deleted here, the representative thought there may be an option to remove songs here as well.
    2. Go into the library that has the songs that were deleted and click Update iTunes match.
    I tried #1--this didn't resolve the issue, as there is no option to remove songs this way. I can't try #2 right now since I'm at work, but if anybody else with this issue can try that step it can help us get the ball rolling on it. After I try that, I'll call Apple back to discuss this further.

  • How can I add songs to itunes music folder without them being duplicated within the folder (not on my hard drive)?

    I have music files all over the place and want to put them all in itunes with no duplicates and get rid of all the rest. how can I do that? Some of my playlists are missing songs. I would like to move the playlist back to itunes from my ipod without having to put the songs in my media folder yet again! I have wasted so much time fooling with this. Really what I am trying to get at through all of this is to run the songs on the ipod through ivolume so they play equally.
    Can anyone make sense of this for me?

    It sounds like you have a few different problems.
    To find all your music, try using a spotlight search. Type "kind:music" in the spotlight search (the magnifying glass in the far upper-right corner ) then choose "show all in finder". You'll end up with a window that shows all your music files, regardless of where they are on your hard drive. But don't move any files, because that may confuse iTunes (it won't be able to find files that you move, because - d'oh! - you moved them and now they're not where iTunes left them. That's usually how people end up in the kind of situation that you're in.)
    If you want to let iTunes organize your music for you, make sure those options are turned on in the iTunes preferences (in the "advanced" section), then go to the "File" menu, choose "Library" and then choose "Organize library". That will put all your music in the iTunes Library folder (but leave copies of the originals wherever they were, all over your hard drive).
    To find duplicates in your iTunes Library, choose "display duplicates" (or hold down the option key and it changes to "display exact duplicates" which might help in some cases). You'll still have to manually go through them to delete one of each duplicate.
    Now you can start combining those three techniques - if you consolidate your music and let iTunes copy everything into the music folder, you'll know that iTunes safely has a copy of all your music in the iTunes Library folder. So you can do the spotlight search, and delete any duplicate files that are not in your iTunes library folder. Anything that's left over (that is, it's not a duplicate and it's not in the itunes music folder), you'll need to add to iTunes (try using the "automatically add to itunes" folder - spotlight search to find it -  anything you drop in there will get added to iTunes without leaving a duplicate file). Then you can use the itunes "duplicates" feature to find the duplicates in iTunes and fix those.

  • Itunes cannot add any songs to the iphone because no songs in the itunes purchased can be copied to this iphone

    What in the world is wrong when my purchased songs cannot be added to my iphone?  It seems random because many of them were transfered/synced but now some just won't sync.  But, then the error message: Itunes cannot add any songs to the iphone because no songs in the itunes purchased can be copied to this iphone.
    I have the latest version of itunes
    Macbook ios has Mavericks 10.9.5
    all other items (including other music) has been syncing correctly
    THEN when I try to use another method to get the music (screen shot #1) it gives me the error message below (screen shot #2):
    Why in the world would anyone want to remove all existing music just to sync the music?  How would I compare what is on my phone from what is on my macbook itunes to see what might be lost?  How do I get it to sync?

    That usually means your phone was previously sync to a different iTunes media library.
    by syncing to your Mac now, if want to wipe the data off the phone and sync it with the data currently in the iTunes media library.

  • As of today, neither sample songs on the music store nor songs already downloaded will play correctly.  They are stuttery and slow.  I have iTunes 10.5 and have not downloaded any upgrades for anything recently.  They were working last night. Thoughts?

    As of today, neither sample songs on the music store nor songs already downloaded will play correctly.  They are stuttery and slow.  I have iTunes 10.5 and have not downloaded any upgrades for anything recently.  They were working last night. Thoughts or advice?

    I found a solution that worked for me.  Here is what I did and where I found it.
    "Looks like I tracked down the problem, it worked for me so I hope this works for everyone else experiencing problems.  Go to your Task Manager and locate the program APSDaemon.exe (Apple Push)..... if you see this executing terminate the program and then startup iTunes and it should come up fine.  You will see afterwards that APSDaemon.exe (Apple Push) starts back up but this is fine as long as iTunes has already started.
    I tried playing both music and syncing up my iPhone with no problems.  Note if you shutdown iTunes again you will have to terminate the process APSDaemon.exe (Apple Push) again.  Haven't had time to see what in the world Apple Push is but this appears to have corrected the problem so that you can at least use iTunes and sync any device that needs to be synced.
    Hope that helps everyone!"
