Cannot sync ringtones to my phone

I bought 2 songs on iTunes, only to find out I had to pay 2.00 more to convert them to ringtones, so I did.
When my phone tries to sync them, an error message comes up and says these 2 songs could not be synced because "I am not allowed to play them on this computer". I can't believe they would charge me for something I can't use! Anyone else have or know how to fix this problem? I have emailed customer support and got nothing!
Also, once you create a ringtone and pull it to your desktop, how do you import it back into iTunes? Thanks!

Choose Authorize Computer from the Store menu in iTunes. This step isn't automatic.
Also, once you create a ringtone and pull it to your desktop, how do you import it back into iTunes?
Drag it into the open iTunes window.

  • In iTunes under my device, under the apps tab, Why are all the options shaded out?  I cannot make any changes, select any apps or do anything with the apps.  I was able to load a few apps and sync but cannot sync anymore to my phone.

    Hi,
    ( I search for iChat questions when I have finished in the iChat Forum)
    So the menu bar reads iChat, File,  Edit,  View, Buddies, Video, Window and Help
    There is no Buddy List open.
    There is no other window for iChat open.
    In the iChat Menu you only have access to Status.
    Is an item ticked in the list ?
    Is this a green (Available item) or  Red ( an Away one) ?
    Can you access the Accounts option ?  (Sitll in the iChat Menu)
    Is anything in here ticked ?
    In the Window menu any Logged in account should appear in the list  (Between the Next Chat and File Transfer items)
    It would be useful to know which version of iChat this is.
    If no account is ticked (iChat Menu > Accounts) or not showing in the Window Menu, plus you cannot determine the Status and you cannot access the Preferences then you need to access your Home Folder/Library/Preferences
    As the Library in the Home Holder is Invisible in Lion you will need the Finder's Go Menu > Go to Folder option  (you can use it in earlier OS versions if you want)
    Type in:-
    ~/Library/Preferences
    Find the file called com.apple.ichat.plist
    Drag it to the Trash and Restart iChat.
    This will lose all the settings in iChat that you have changed from Defaults but there is no way around this.

    Are you syncing photos to the phone?
    If so, try deleting your existing iPod photo cache. To locate that, see the following document:

    I could not get music and videos from the computer to the iPad and vise versa although the computer apparently was backing up the iPad. After playing around with them a bit I finally got the two devices to share media again. i still get the message that the iPad and the computer cannot sync - now that i got them to start sharing again i'm not sure how them "not syncing" is going to affect me as yet.
    Thanks for the effort

  • When connecting my iPhone 4S to my laptop via a cable, my phone is charging but my itunes is saying nothing has been connected and therefore i cannot sync anything onto my phone

    I have an iPhone 4S and recently when i have been trying to sync my phone and laptop it is not working. I connect my phone and laptop via USB cable and then my phone begins to charge. It asks is i trust this laptop and i agree to trust it. Then i go on to my itunes hopeing to sync my music to my phone, but it says there is nothing connected. Usually a tab would come up saying 'Hayleys's iPhone' but now there is nothing there and i am not sure why. Please help!

    Hello Hayley77,
    It sounds like you are not seeing your iPhone in iTunes when you have it connected to your computer, but your phone recognizes the computer because you get the prompt to trust the computer. I recommend the steps from the article named:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,

  • Cannot sync ringtones

    Recently purchased ringtones will not sync to my iPhone. Can anyone help?

    Purchased ringtones?
    You bought them fro the ringtones section from your iphone?
    Or you bought an album or file of sounds that can be used as ringtones from itunes?
    If you bought from itunes, then you need to create the ringtone. There are several free ways to do this. Google will find them.

  • Cannot sync and backup the iPhone using iTunes

    I developed the program and uploaded it on the iPhone. The problem is that with the my application installed, I cannot sync and backup the phone using iTunes. As soon as the app is removed, I was able to perform the expected sequence of backing up and syncing the phone. This issue affects both Windows and Mac users of the iPhone app. This happened on iOS 4.0 with both an iPhone 4 and 3GS. How can I solve this problem?

  • Cannot sync my ringtones!

    Hello everyone,
    I'm having this problem that I cannot sync my ringtones from my mac to the iPhone.
    I have a total of 9 tones , 6 of which I've downloaded from the web and three purchased from the iTunes store. iTunes is having a problem syncing those to the iPhone. It shows me a message on the phone that iTunes couldn't sync three tones. I can see them in the ringtones section but they just can't transfer.
    How can I transfer them?
    Thank you,
    Ali

    Can you play the tones in iTunes? Were they purchased from iTunes or did you make them yourself?
    Try unchecking sync ringtones, syncing, and then checking sync ringtones again, like suggested here ->

  • I cannot sync my iphone music, i had used my i phone on another pc, now when i bought a song on this computer from the apple store, i have just been sent an email that says Your Apple ID, was just used to purchase "" by a computer or device not prev assoc

    i cannot sync my iphone music, i had used my i phone on another pc, which died.  Ive managed to save the hard drive and transfer stuff across. I ended up smashing my phone and could update all other stuff on restore but cant sync any music.  It is all grey at the top of the screen.  Ive re installed itunes and cleared all phone data. Now when i bought a song on this computer from the apple store, i have just been sent an email that says Your Apple ID, was just used to purchase (a song ) by a computer that had not been previously associated with that apple id.  So do i have to tell apple now somehow i am using itunes on this pc, and if so how? Because i authorised it and it said this pc was one of 5 aujthorised.  if anyone can be of assistance then great!

    I'm having a similar problem.  I had previously (over a year ago) purchased 2 episodes of Law & Order.  Then about 2 months ago, I purchased the 3rd season of Sons of Anarchy.  When I downloaded these episodes to my iPad, about a dozen full seasons of various shows popped up, too.  No money was removed from my iTunes account & theses particular shows aren't in my iTunes library on my desktop.  I've tried every which way to delete them from my ipad, but can't.  I went to the Apple store & they suggested I contact expresslane.apple.com for help.  I submitted my problem, via email Friday, as they asked, but have not received any response.  Any suggestions on how to get rid of these "phantoms?".

  • HT1386 HELP!!! I cannot sync my iPhone to iTunes. The message says I don't have enough access privelages. And I cannot drag/drop any songs into my device. After updating, I have no music content on my phone. Please, can somebody tell me how to fix this?

    Can someone please help me? I cannot sync my phone with iTunes after updating the software, & my phone has no music. The message window keeps saying I don't have enough access privelages. It also won't recognize my new subscription to iCoud when I turn on iMatch in Settings. I have tried everything I can think of & am ready to throw this thing out of the window in frustration.

    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases.  File>Transfer Purchases
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  Use your backup copy to move everything to your new computer.

    If you bought them on your iPad then you will need to connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over to the Tones part of your computer's iTunes library and you can then sync them to your iPhone - ringtones are a one-time only download, so you won't be able to redownload them directly on your phone.
