Editing purchased ringtones

Dear All,
Is there a way to edit a purchased ringtone?
I purchased the ringtone from one of my favorite movies but it takes too long to start. Is there any way to edit the start time.
The start end timer is greyed out and even if I attempt to change the file to an mp3 or mp4 it is still greyed out.
The song is very hard to find as its from a movie so I can not manually do it and save as m4r.
Any suggestions

I found a solution here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/16442810#16442810
I hope it helps you too

How do I get a purchased ringtone from my music library to Ringtones?

I've purchased a couple of ringtones from itunes but they downloaded into my music library and I can't figure out how to move them to the Ringtones folder in my library. I tried going back to itunes and downloading them directly onto my phone but they show "purchased" and will only play, not download.
TIA
alice

No, what I actually purchased was a ringtone. I actually purchased it on my iphone from contacts by selecting a contact, clicking edit, clicking ringtone, clicking "buy buy more tones", being taken to the "tones" section of the itunes store, finding the tone I wanted in the "tones" section of the itunes store and buying it. It download as an m4r file and remains in m4r file. Unfortunately, no matter what I do, I cannot get this m4r ringtone file that I purchased from the itunes store "tones" section from the music folder in itunes media to the ringtones folder.

HT201272 purchased ringtone. REceived e-mail confirming purchase and charge to credit card. Can not find ringtone anywhere

Purchased ringtone from apps. Billed and charged. Can not find it on iPhone 4S or on computer.

If you bought it on your iPhone then it should be on it - it will only be on your computer's iTunes if you've copied it over (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases), in which case it should copy to the Tones part of your library (they won't appear in the Purchased link for re-downloading). It doesn't show on the list if you try to change one of your notification sounds on your phone via Settings > Sounds, or if you go into Contacts and select a contact and tap the Edit button at the top right does that allow you to assign that ringtone to that contact ?
Or is is a ringtone that you bought in an app i.e. not a ringtone from the iTunes store ?

You would have to create the ringtones.
Google will find several way to do this.
You cannot buy ready made ringtones from your computer.

My purchased ringtones are not showing up on my iTunes account?! Where are they??

The screen on my laptop has an internal crack so im using my mom's laptop for now. When I connected my iPhone to the computer, I couldn't do anything without syncing my phone which meant everything got erased! I wasn't too upset because I backed up everything on iCloud. Well for some reason, it didn't back up anything and I lost all my media. No biggie. I added most of the songs and apps back. I tried to add the ringtones I've purchased from iTunes but they're not showing up under the "purchased" section of my iTunes account. I don't know why they're not showing up. It's at least 20 ringtones that I've purchased at $1.29 each! Please help!!

I purchased three ringtones on my iPhone 5. They installed quickly and I was easily able to assign them to contacts. The next time I connected my iPhone to iTunes on my computer the ringtones disappeared from my iPhone. They were still showing in iTunes ringtones section on my computer. They showed up on my iTunes accounts page as being purchased too. I tried everything suggested on the forums to get my purchased ringtones to show on my phone again, with no success.
I started trying different things out of desperation and finally lucked upon a solution. I opened iTunes on my computer. Under the Library section I opened Tones (left side of screen same section as music, movies, etc.). When the tones section opened it showed my three ringtones. I dragged the three ringtones to the desktop. I then deleted the three ringtones from the tones menu. It asked if I wanted to delete them from iTunes completely or just from the tones section. I chose to delete them from the tones section only. Once they were deleted From the tones section i went back to the desktop and dragged the three ringtones from the desktop back to the tones section. The computer automatically synced to my phone and VIOLA! the three ringtones appeared on my iPhone again.
Extra suggestion. I have been using an app from the iTunes Store named Ringtone Maker Pro. It takes songs from my iTunes library and converts them to ringtones. It does a great job. There is a video attached that shows exactly what to do step by step.
Hope this helps.

How can I restore my purchased ringtones back to my iphone

I have lost my purchased ringtones to my itunes on computer. How do I restore?

i had same prob, try this ...
make sure u have back up of all tones in itnes and on external drive for belts and bracers.
i had to uncheck the sync all button and run a sync in itunes with iphone 4 via usb, it warned me that i would loose all personal ringtones on phone, as i had lost them all it was no brainer.
i ran sync.
then i rechecked the sync all tones in itunes and run again and bobs ya uncle up they popped from itunes back on to iphone.

All of my purchased ringtones and songs dissapeared out of the blue. How do I get them back without having to buy them all over again?

Out of the blue, all of my purchased ringtones and music aren't displayed anymore on my iPhone.
I went to iTunes to see if they were stored there, but the downloads folder also appears to be empty. If I try to select a ringtone I've downloaded before, a popup appears saying that I've already purchased that item and asking if I want to cancel or buy. If I click on buy, then I pay for the item again even if I already have it! The only place I can still see my purchased items is in the iTunes application on my computer, but even though I've already selected sync, the ringtones and songs still won't appear on my iPhone.
What happeneded and how can I get them back without having to pay for them all over again?
Thank you!

I'm having the same problem on an iphone 4s running iOS8; when i updated to iOS8, all my ringtones went missing, and when i got a £50 gift card for christmas (2014), I purchased some songs from the iTunes store on my iPhone. i downloaded songs from paramore, panic! at the disco, coldplay, and imagine dragons, over wi-fi, and they went into my iphone music library; but when i re-opened the music app a few days later, in a place where i had no wi-fi, except for my 3G phone signal, some cloud icons appeared next to my newly purchased songs, telling me to re-download them from the cloud, when i haven't even deleted them. this has happened twice now, and i had to use up some of my 5GB data allowance to redownload them from the cloud. This is annoying and i need to fix this issue ASAP.

Hi Janelh,
I also confused about this, I can't do that by myself I don't know the reason. I search it and see phone transfer tool needed. However what is the best tool? Maybe copy data from old iPhone to pc first? Just to see here: how about it?

How do I put a purchased ringtone on my contact?

I have purchased ringtones for my contacts but my IPhone does not recognize the ringtones or give me the option to attach the new ringtone to a contact. Help would be appreciated or a refund.

First, it has to recognize the ringtones.
Then to assign to a contact,
On your iPhone, go to the Home screen. Tap Phone and then tap Contacts. Choose a contact, tap Ringtone and select a new ringtone. When that contact calls, you will hear that ringtone.

HOW do I download my purchased ringtone to my Iphone5

How do I download my purchased ringtones to my Iphone5?

Ringtones are currently a one-time only download from the store - do you have copies of them in the Tones section of your computer's iTunes library or on your backup of your downloads that you can use to sync them to it ? If not, and if they are still in your country's store, you can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side

Purchased ringtone iphone 4 that is not in my itunes library when i click transfer purchases from it appears in the tones library but in a paler shade of print with a dotted circle to the left of it when i take any action it disappears

have purchased ringtone on iphone 4 not in my itunes library when i click devices, transfer purchases from, it appears in tones in my library but in a paler shade of print with a dotted circle to the left of it, if i try to click on it or take any other action it disappears and leave a blank space i have tried this several time i want to transfer library to my new iphone 5 but i will loose the ringtone

I had the exact same issue!! Seriously p*ssed me off when I checked out my ITunes purchased items (via my computer) and noticed that most of the additional tracks listed on my IPhone playlist was listed there too. However, I never authorized any purchases!! (I have actually written Apple Support asking for a full refund of all tracks listed on my purchased list)
Be careful when you swipe your finger to the left/right on those "additional" tracks on your IPhone playlist... I'm pretty sure that the cloud symbol is an option to download or automatically buy those tracks.
Solution for the problem:
1 - go to your IPhone settings
2 - choose "iTunes & App Store"
3 - go to "Show All" & "Music"
4 - turn off "Music" by moving the bar to the left (it should be a white color once you turn it off)
Should solve your problem :~)
