Custom Ringtones

I'm having an issue with my custom ringtones assigned to my contacts. The custom ringtone does not work when the contact that I have assigned the custom ringtone calls. I get the general ringtone that I use for all other calls. I have tried deleting the contact and reentering it and assigning the custom ringtone again but still nothing. I have even tried pulling the battery out after entering in the contact and custom ringtone but still nothing. I don't have caller ID from my wireless carrier, Rogers, but I was told I don't need it to make the custom ringtones work. I even called Rogers but they were no help. Can someone pleas give me some advice on how to fix this issue?
Thanks

You may have an issue with your Sounds/Profiles database. Try clearing it and setting up all notifications again manually then testing the custom ringtones again. http://bbry.lv/lsuQXK

After iTunes/Yosemite updates, custom ringtones no longer available in Contacts on Mac but are on iPhone

After updating to Yosemite, my custom ringtones are no longer associated with particular contacts on my Mac. They seem to be in the right place in iTunes (ver. 12, updated at same time), and are still assigned to contacts on my iPhone (OS 8.1)--I haven't synched contacts, but I can't figure out how to get them re-assigned to specific contacts on the computer. when they're not there to be selected. These are a combination of purchased and GarageBand ringtones, and have been in use for years. Here's what I've tried:
In iTunes > Tones: Deselecting the ringtones, syncing (connected to mac). Then re-selcting and synching again. Ringtones are still visible on the iphone in Sounds, and in iTunes, but not available from within Contacts on the Mac.
Still in iTunes, used Get Info to identify where in Finder Tones are kept, which for me is: ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Tones/. Copied all of them, moved the originals to the trash. (Did not empty.) Restarted. Didn't make a difference. I put everything back.
I have had this problem once before with an OS upgrade or new iPhone, I'm not sure which, but the de-selecting/selecting had worked. Not this time, however. My mistake may have been to update to Yosemite before updating my phone to OS8.1, but that's the way it was presented to me, and I didn't realize it would matter. My preference is to sync my contacts. But this became de-selected during the update. (Other prefs changed, also, for example--I prefer local backup, and it defaulted to iCloud.)

regarding the ringtones, i was able to set custom ringtones myself, but ever since i did that i get errors when synching my phone in the form that some app's dont work, have any of you had this problem?

I have synced by I-phone to I-tunes to sync custom ringtones but they do not show up on I-Phone. They are in the syncing que in I-tunes but not on phone. Can someone help here.

I am having problems syncing the I-Phone ringtones from I-tunes to the I-Phone. These are custom ringtones and they do show up in the I-tunes ringtones and syncing seems to work but they are not on the I-Phone?

1. CC 2014 uses different folder for CEP extensions. If you installed both CC apps and CC 2014 apps, Extension Manager CC will install CEP extensoins to both "~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CEPServiceManager4/extensions" and "~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CEP/extensions". Please check if you can find your extensions in the latter folder.
2. Flash based extensions are no longer supported by PS CC 2014. So if some of your extensions are Flash based, even if they are installed to the folder above, PS CC 2014 will not load them. You have to install their HTML based counterparts. Refer to

Custom Ringtones Show Up in iTunes Folder, but Not on iPhone

I've recently upgraded from a 3GS to a 4G. I have a few custom ringtones that I created from .MP3 files (converted to .m4r files). I had these same ringtones installed on my 3GS and want them on my 4G.
I transferred to my 4G by dragging them from the Windows folder to the iTunes device folder. The 5 ringtones show up in iTunes under the Ringtones folder. Only one of them shows up on the phone as being transferred.
I had done this a couple of days ago, and noticed then that only one ringtone was being shown under Custom Ringtones on my phone. Tonight, I uninstalled them all, rebooted my phone, and then re-dragged the files as per above. Again, all show up in the folder on the iPhone in iTunes, but one shows up on the phone. This is now a different one than a couple of days ago.
Soooo... what can be causing this? The files are apparently on my phone, but not appearing in the usable list. I need some help in resolving this. I've looked through these forums and seen similar issues. There doesn't seem to be a 'proper' way to do this. I manage my phone manually, and have not done a 'sync' with the ringtones as they show up in the folder... (I don't really see the need to sync if they're appearing in iTunes as on the phone).
Thanks!

How can I get a custom ringtone onto my phone?

Phone type: Samsung Reality
Note: No texting plan; 25 MB Data Package, as required
Hi everyone! I got the Samsung Reality, and -sadly- the Data Package that is requiired to go with it. I don't have any texting plan, but I want to use a custom ringtone (from my computer). I know we can send a text message to ourselves using free websites such as Ventones, but that would mean i have to pay for the picture Text message because I have no texting plan.
Is there another way I can get custom ringtones onto my phone without sending a text message or downloading them from the APP? There are some korean ringtones I found online that I would like to use on my phone.
I was dissapointed that the songs I put onto my phone could not be used as my ringtone. Could I email myself with an attachment of the song file (usually 30~35 seconds long), and set it as my ringtone? Or is that virtually impossible (if its impossible to do it without texting, how much would a text message with a song attached to it cost me)? Any help would be appreciated!

Picture messages without a texting plan are 25 cents each. Better than the $1.99 or $2.99 from the online store....
Attaching to an email would not work as mobile email does "do" attachments.
Sending to your online album will use text messages, I believe. Better to use a micro SD card, save to the card, and transfer them to your computer that way.

One Custom Ringtone at a Time - That's all we get?

Has anyone successfully loaded more than ONE custom ringtone onto their iPhone and had success using the additional tones?
I bought three from iTunes and created one of my own. I'm only able to have ONE of these tones on the phone at any one time. If I load all four (or any subset) the correct NUMBER of files will appear, but they will all be the same.

I too had the same tone showing up where all the others should be but (thanks to the guy at apple support) fixed it.
First of all, you need to re-set your library as this is most likely the problem.. Follow the instructions on this link:
http://www.info.apple.com/kbnum/n93313
If you have more than one folder then do the same with that one. You may end up with duplicate tunes but just clicka and hold down ctrl then delete to get rid of them. Note: make sure both copies play first!
Afterward, COMPLETELY restore your phone (as easy as clicking restore in itunes but): http://movies.apple.com/movies/us/apple/iphone/2007/tips/iphone-tip-resetiphone560x316.mov
DON'T set it up as a new phone after this, use backup option as this works fine.
Then buy/ make your ringtone (if you make them your self please be sure they are under 30 seconds long)then drag them into the ringtone library on itunes library ABOVE the phone NOT the phone one itself. Then, click on your phone device in itunes, go over to the ringtone tab (between info and music in the top middle of the screen) and then click selected ringtones and tick the ones you want and then press sync. You should have them all there now and you are done.
Good luck. It was a great guy in european apple support that helped me. Custom Ringtones are only supported in the USA right now and he had to leave me quickly but he solved my problem and didn't even know it. Hope this helps you all.

Only one custom ringtone at a time?

I've uploaded more than one custom ringtone at a time onto my phone, but it shows two of the same song and won't upload anymore. Anyone with a suggestion?

Wordartist65
When you connect the iphone up to itunes, click on the iphone on the left side.
To the left of the name of the iphone on the left hand side of itunes, there is a triangle.
Click on that triangle and it will expand a menu down or up.
Click on the ringtones under the iphone and see if the ringtones show up as duplicate or different.
If the ringtones are different, then there is corrupted on the iphone that is not allowing it to read the ringtones correctly.
To fix this you will need to restore the iphone.
After the iphone has been restored an option will come up to restore from back up.
Do not restore from back up, set up as a new iphone.
The reason for this is if there was anything corrupted on the iphone that was not allowing the iphone to read the ringtones correctly, you do not want to put it back on the iphone.
here is an article from the apple support website that might help in the restore process.

I can see only one ringtone in the custom ringtone box.plz help

i can see only one ringtone in the custom ringtone box.plz help

Cap,
This view, with the one photo big and the thumbnail strip across the top, is what happens when you double-click a photo with "Edit in: Main Window" set in the Preferences. There should be a button visible that says either Done or Return, to exit edit mode and return you to the library. If you still see only one photo, use the size slider in the lower right corner to reduce the photo size and get more thumbnails on the page.
If, for some reason, you can't exit the edit mode, you may have a corrupt preference file. Quit iPhoto. Use the Finder to navigate to Macintosh HD/ Users/ (your user name)/ Library/ Preferences/ com.apple.iPhoto.plist and move that file to the Trash. Launch iPhoto, and you should be returned to the main viewing mode. You'll have to go in the Preferences and reset them to your liking.
Regards.

I recently did an update to my iphone 4s and now i have lost all my custom ringtones and some music I had loaded. What have I done wrong ? I did a backup and restore.

Hello Chance1985,
Sorry for your wait. Okay so let's try re-connecting with iTunes on your computer and syncing your device. This may give you all your stuff back. Sync in Music tab.

I've spent an hour plus googling this and none of the 'fixes' works. My custom ringtones show up fine in itunes but are grayed out in iphone when I try to sync. This just happened when I synced my phone: previously worked fine.

I've spent an hour on this: massively frustrating. My custom ringtones disappeared from iphone when I just sync'd and now show up in itunes/iphone interface (on the mac) grayed out: won't sync to phone. I know the audio files work because they were fine two hours ago! (iphone 5 running 8.1.3)

I had this problem too after i upgdatd to OS X Mavericks... only the songs on my iphone 5s that i purchased from itunes would play.
i read something about it being a syncing issue. when you plug your phone into your computer with the usb cable, the person said to switch from automatic syncing of itunes to the "manual" option. mine was already set to manual so i wasn't sure anything would work. BUT, when i plugged my phone into my computer, it started to sync all of my music on my phone again (top of itunes bar where song playing/time is listed said "now syncing 123/534 songs to x's iphone"). once that was completed, i checked the music app on my iphone and everything was back to normal!
so, i would suggest setting your music syncing settings to manual if you haven't tried that yet!
hope this helps!

Custom Ringtones no longer working?

I recently installed 2.02 and just replaced my 8GB iPhone with a 16GB phone. Strangely, my old custom ringtones are on my new phone, but I am not able to add new ones. I am running ITunes 7.7 and am creating a custom MP3, I add it to Itunes then convert to AAC. I go to the folder that the m4a file is located, rename to m4r and sync. Did Apple stop custom ringtones in 2.02?

regarding the ringtones, i was able to set custom ringtones myself, but ever since i did that i get errors when synching my phone in the form that some app's dont work, have any of you had this problem?

I recently got a new computer and now can't transfer new songs from my library to my iphone. are not listed in my library so I'm afraid that if I sync with the new library I will lose all of my custom ringtones.

My custom ringtones don't show up in my iTunes library (only on my iPhone library) so I'm afraid that if I sync to the new computer I'll lose my tones. I've tried backing up on my computer, but then I can't find that information to bring into iTunes. I've tried backing up to the Cloud, but it requires me purchasing more space (which I don't want to do). I've already turned off most of my apps, but I'm still over the limit.

IPhone 3GS iOS 4.1 Update No Custom Ringtones

Hi Everyone!
I just upgraded my iPhone 3GS to iOS 4.1 and now I can no longer set customized ringtones for individual users. At first, my phone had lost all my contacts (which are synced to an Exchange server). When I restored my contacts I noticed that I can no longer have custom ringtones for individual contacts. There's no option there any more. Just the number, a "notes" section. Anyone else have this problem?

For some reason in iOS 4.1 the option to add a ringtone was removed from the main view of an individual contact. Now the only way to assign one is via the Edit option, which I find to be a pain! I liked it in iOS 2.x and 3.x that you could quickly assign ringtones WITHOUT having to tap edit and scroll down.
Once the ringtone has been added, THEN it does show up and is changeable without having to tap Edit on the contact you assigned one too.
Definitely a step backwards!
I would also love the ability (been asking since day one) to assign a ringtone to a GROUP of contacts. Such a pain doing them one by one and if you ever need to turn contact syncing off and on for MobileMe then you lose all your ringtone assignments.
