Can't send Garageband ringtones to iTunes

I can create ringtones with Garageband on my Macbook Pro, but on my 2013 iMac, when I send to iTunes, nothing happens. Any ideas on why that might be?Can

Hello all,
Brian here. Here's something that I came across back when GarageBand was at Version 2:
IF you have moved your iTunes Library to another drive (meaning not it's no longer located in the Music Folder) GarageBand will act like it's sending the file, but iTunes will not recieve it. Once I put my iTunes Library folder back on the internal boot drive, iTunes began recieving my work sent from GarageBand.
Try that out. I've not tried this with GarageBand 3, and when I do, I'll post my findings. But, I think that will get your music sent from GB to iTunes. I don't think it has anything to do with how long your song is, actually... I have a house track I wrote that 9m 52s long, and until I put my iTunes Library back, it wouldn't send from GB. I hope that they've fixed that, because I really want to move a LOT of the iLife folders to an external drive.
Please e-mail me back and let me know if that works for you, or if you find out that GB still requires you to have an iTunes Library in the default "Music" Folder found in the Home folder. Here's the e-mail address:
[email protected]
Sincerely,

    Can you send a code for iTunes and have it still work

    Did you get this in an email from Apple? Are there instructions in the email?
    Typically the way that you redeem a gift card is to go to either the app store or iTunes - go to the featured tab in the app store or the music tab in iTunes - swipe to the bottom of the screen. Tap on Reedem at the bottom and go from there.
    OK. I'm a little dense tonight. Now I get it. Like Meg said, you will know soon enough.

  • Purchased ringtone, but can't move to "ringtones" on iTunes

    I've downloaded a ringtone for my iPhone 4 from "100 most popular ringtones" on iTunes. Oddly, it doesn't appear to be an actual ringtone. When imported into my "Music" section of iTunes, it will not allow me to drag-and-drop it into "ringtones." I've tried pretty much everything: magic web suggestions to change to m4r, etc., but nothing works. I figure, well, I've paid a whole 99 cents for ringtone from iTunes, but I can't use it. Hmmm. Any thoughts?

    Yep, same here. I too also purchased one and it refuses to go into my ring tones folder for the iPhone.
    iTunes is the most worthless POS I have EVER dealt with in my life. I had this ringtone once on my phone. So I hook up the iPhone after a reinstall of the OS and BAM I lose my ringtone and music again.
    Apple, your software ***** donkey ***. | You!

  • Can't find any ringtone in iTunes Stores!!!

    Is there a hidden section? I can't see any tunes with a bell displayed next to it... or did I get it wrong: do you need to purchase a song and THEN the bell becomes available (not very Apple like!!!).
    I am just surprised there's no dedicated section I browsed through music -> Genre, and no ringtone there either.
    Baffled, can anyone shed some light here?
    Cheers

    Hi there!
    Are you using your iPhone in the UK? If so, I have had this issue raised with o2. Basically, ringtones from iTunes is NOT currently an available feature in the UK just yet. o2 told me this will be shortly once licensing issues have been agreed upon. Hope this helps.

  • Can I send a gift via iTunes to another country?

    Hi, I am in the UK and want to send a couple of movies to a friend in Brazil. I remember a couple of occasions a while back, I have been unable to download content as it is from a different store/catalogue (USA). Is it possible for me to gift these films if they are unavailable on the Brazil iTunes store? How do I find out if the movies are available there?
    Thanks

    1. No, it isn't possible; even if they're available there, international gifts can't be sent through the iTunes Store interface. The money for them can be sent through an international cheque or similar methods.
    2. Change the iTunes Store country to Brazil and check.

  • How can I synch a ringtone with iTunes Match

    Hi all,
    I am using iTunes Match and I've made a song into a ringtone.
    I see the song in my iTunes in a folder named "ringtones" so I suspect Apple recognises it as a ringtone.
    When I synch my iPhone (5s) however, I can't find the ringtone in my iPhone.
    So either I'm searching in the wrong place, or it isn't synchronised.
    Because I am using iTunes Match for my music, I suspect that could be causing the problem.
    Any tips?
    Best regards,
    Peter

    I've tried to follow the step-by-step guide.
    However, I don't have the option "Creat AAC version". When I go and check via Finder, my songs already are AAC version. So I made a copy of the song in question in finder, I've double-clicked it to open in iTunes and then I adapted the playing time to 27 seconds. Afterwards I copied it my desktop, deleted the file in iTunes and changed the extension on the desktop to m4r.
    When I check it in Finder, it says in the properties "ringtone" (while my other music is "Apple MPEG-4-audio"), which leads me to assume that iTunes does indeed recognizes it as a ringtone. Is this a correct assumption or not?
    In the iTunes tab ringtones however, nothing appears. When I synch there's no ringtone on my iPhone.

    Looks like it could be related to the Prokit error...
    Follow the instructions exactly, no more, no less.
    After the procedure follow the link at the end of the page and download/Install Prokit 7.

  • Can I send mp3/ringtones from my macbook to my samsung a737 phone?

    I just got a new cell, a Samsung a737. I can't trust any of the "free ringtones" sites b/c of course they are all scams. Is there a way to use bluetooth to send audio files to the phone? If I get the USB data cable for this phone, is there a way to put the sound files on that way?

    Have you tried VENTONES.COM. They truly are free and very easy to use. No hassle. No credit cards, etc.

  • No "Ringtones" tab and can't drag & drop ringtones into iTunes

    I have an iPhone4 running OS4.3, using iTunes 10.2 on a Windows Vista PC. I used an iPhone app to create custom ringtones, and have followed the app's instructions to save the ringtones to my PC and then copy into iTunes. Two problems:
    1) The instructions say to drag & drop the .m4r files into iTunes. I've seen this mentioned in other posts on this topic. When I try to do this, the files won't "drop". I see the "no" symbol (circle with line) when I hover over my music library.
    2) The instructions say to click on my iPhone in iTunes, and then on the "Ringtones" tab along the top of the screen. I don't have a Ringtones tab. There's also no reference to Ringtones in the left navigation pane.
    How do I correct this?
    Thanks

    !!! JUST DOWNGRADE YOUR ITUNES VERSION, AND USE THE OLDER ONE - THAT'S ALL. SORRY FOR ALL-CAPITAL LETTERS AND EXCLAMATION MARKS, - IT IS JUST OUT OF EXCITEMENT, AFTER HOURS OF SEARCHING AND THINKING ABOUT A SOLUTION !!!
    Shalom all,
    Our frustration and pain is over, for sure… With some help and hints from this forum I’ve found a precise solution to the above mentioned can’t-get-the-goddamned-ringtones-tab-to-appear-in-my-iTunes problem.
    Now let me try and get up to the point:
    The 10.5.2 version of iTune is worthless (at least, it’s 64-bit modification, which I’ve been using up to this point). By reading a few comments on your forum, I’ve quickly decided to try and downgrade to 10.4.1.10 version (seems to me, 64-bit), which can be downloaded from apple.com site with just a little extra-search.
    By the way, I do have Windows 7 64-bit OS on my PC, and “Apple” warns that one MUST use 64-bit installation in my case…
    One must uninstall previously installed 10.5.2 (if there used to be one, of course). In such a case, please, also uninstall a “Bonjour” program by “Apple” (don’t know what’s that, but you will not be able proceed any further with, as it was said in my case, higher version of “Bonjour” left behind).
    After uninstalling those two abovementioned things, I have installed iTunes 10.4.1.10 , even without being asked for reboot by the end of the installation. But, alas, when I tried running iTunes, it failed with the complain about a “iTunes Library.itl” file (found in C:\Users\<My_User>\Music\iTunes). I’ve just renamed the file (could’ve been removed as well, of course) and restarted the iTunes. This time everything went smooth.
    The rest of the story, I assume, you can imagine much better than me. Go to Edit->Preferences and tick “Ringtones”. After connecting the iPhone (well, probably one more iTunes restart will be required in this case, - not sure about that), we will get the “Ringtones” tab set also under the iPhone definition (see “DEVICES” in iTunes).
    Next, create an .m4a file out of your favorite ringtone, move it to the Desktop, change the extension to a4r, add it back (drug-and-drop) to “Ringtones” tab at the iTunes LIBRARY. Then make some blessing, take a deep breath and… that’s pretty much done. One important thing not to forget before sync: click on your phone (under iTune’s DEVICES), and click on “Ringtones”, located right under the gorgeous :-) apple picture in the top middle of the iTunes window. Mark “Sync Ringtones” and “All Ringtones” (?) there, of course…
    BTW, no need whatsoever to register your phone, - you can just postpone the registration...
    Phew… Let’s hope I haven’t forget anything. Anyhow, the idea was to get rid of iTunes 10.5.2 as soon as possible, uninstall it together with “Bonjour” (say good bye to “Bonjour”  ), then install a good old iTunes 10.4.1.10, get over few problems and… The rest of the procedure - you know it by heart, by far better than me…
    I’ve been struggling with the problem for less than a day (thanks to all of you, pals), but I can imagine there are still some poor pal chaps around…
    Let us help them… Very unfortunately, English is not my mother tongue, as you can see… I wish, it would be different, but G-d decided other way… Please, (1) make some corrections and clarifications to this notes (I could've made it better, but in a crunch now, really), and also, (2) try spreading it among as many guys as possible… If you can pass this solution to “Apple” tech support, - it should be taken to consideration...
    And I'll be waiting now for a generous job offer from that great company... :-)
    Let me just wish you all a very Happy New Year...
    Thank you all, dear friends, and do enjoy the best of your own FREE ringtones……
    P.S.: iTunes 10.4.1 (64-bit) can be found here http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1427 , at the bottom of the page...

  • 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.

  • HT2736 Can you send money from one iTunes account to another?

    Need help!

    iTunes Store credit can't be spent on any sort of gift; you either need to have a credit card associated with the first account or ask the iTunes Store staff to put a gift card's balance back onto it, which they'll only do if none of it has been spent.

  • Can only export songs/ringtones to itunes on one user account

    I can't for the life of me figure out why it works fine on one user account, and on the other account (there both admin accts), it appears to be exporting to itunes but, nothing ever shows up in itunes or in the itunes music folder. Any ideas on this? I have seen a few other posts with similar problems but have not been able to find a solution. Thanks in advance.
