Error 11556 when trying to convert songs to ringtones

i have bought a song from itunes to turn it into a ringtone for my iphone but when i try to convert the song into a ringtone i get this message. itunes could not connect to the itunes store, and unkown error occured (11556). i have heard you can't make ringtones in the UK for some stupid reason but i am in canada. please help

By any chance were these songs you are trying to turn into a ringtone. Did they come from the iTunes WiFi Store?
If so and the songs still exist in the iPhone. Try the following
1. Delete the songs in iTunes and ensure they go into the trash.
2. Go to iTunes Preferences - Devices - and Disable automatic sync for iPhones and iPods. Ensure you check this box.
3. Now connect the iPhone. Then go to iTunes menu bar and click on File - Transfer purchases - Once the songs copy back from iPhone. Now go ahead and try and turn one into a ringtone.

    Hello.  I am receiving "error codes" when trying to dowload songs.  It charges me but the songs never download and I have restarted itunes and it does not automatically start downloading as instructed online.  Help?

    I don't know exactly what they said b/c they are nolonger on my screen.  It said something to the effect of "incomplete dowload, there was an eror during the dowload of *Song*".
    The songs purchased were showing in my purchased list with an "exclamation point" by them, which I believe indicates the download was incomplete.  I restarted iTunes and the songs are no longer on my "Purchased list".
    I was still charged after restarting iTunes

  • Error message when trying to convert powerpoint presentation to Adobe Acrobat PDF

    When trying to create an Adobe Acrobat PDF file from Powerpoint (save as Adobe PDF from the Print menu), Automator gives the following error message: "an error occurred while saving the PDF file". Currently using version 14.4.6 of Microsoft Powerpoint for Mac, 11.0.09 Adobe Acrobat and OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 on iMac. Also had the same problem previously with Mavericks and Mountain Lion. The problem seems to be the Apple Automator not working correctly with the Acrobat interface. I create Acrobat PDF docs perfectly well on my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.7.5) and am scared to update to the latest version of OS X in case that also affects the ability to create PDFs.
    I have tried using Apple's own PDF creator, and doing this by first creating PS files then converting to PDF, however, many bugs appear in the files, and they are enormous - around 5x the size of Acrobat PDFs, so this is not an option. I have also tried troubleshooting with Adobe to no avail.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks,
    Jane

    Hi star2111,
    Please tell us a bit more about the error message that you're receiving, and where you're seeing it (in Adobe Reader, or the ExportPDF website?). It will also be helpful to know whether the error occur when just one file, or with any file that you try to convert.
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Virus on Hard Drive-Error Message When Trying to Backup Songs

    I think I have finally figured out how to select all my songs including ones purchased through iTunes. When I click in the upper right with a CD-R, DVD-RW, CD-RW in the upper middle of iTunes I get the following error message:
    Disc Recording Not Found
    What does this mean? As a test, I took a file and copied it directly to the CD and it worked fine on the CD-R.
    Also, when I copy these songs onto the CD will it copy the artwork as well for my Nano?
    HELP! I need to reformat asap.

    done

  • Error Message when trying to convert to Word

    I am trying to convert a 476 page training manual from the PDF  to Word and I keep getting an error message.  There are some pictures and tables in the document.  Could this be the problem?  Do I have to just select the text pages?  Help

    Are you using Acrobat or one of the online tools. Acrobat can create PDFs without any connection to a server.

  • Error -50 when trying to convert to 128 Kbps AAC

    I try to convert all my files to 128 KBPs but about halfway through one of the songs gets an error (-50) and it wont go on. I wanted to do this because I heard it makes the songs take up less room and my iPods almost full. If it helps any I'm using the latest version of iTunes on Windows 7 65 bit.

    Unless you happen to catch the name of the song it's syncing, I don't see how you are going to narrow this down.
    While syncing, if you click on the ipod in the left list, you can make the little triangle point down. Then click on the word Music underneath that. (Not the main music library, in other words)
    There will be little circles next to each song when that song is getting synced. There will also be the song name in the top oval. If you happen to catch that song's name, you could uncheck it and itunes won't try to sync it.

  • Error mesage when trying to load songs onto ipod, computer is authorized

    my husband and I have 2 different user IDs on vista and when I tried to load some songs from our public itunes directory onto his ipod, an error pops up saying this computer is not authorized to play these songs. When I try to authorize the computer in the itunes store it says, computer already authorized but I continue to get the error. I logged out of my account and back in but it still isn't working. Now when I tried to sync my iphone under my user id on the laptop I'm getting the error message that the computer is not authorized so it can't sync my iphone apps. It worked fine a week ago, this is not a new computer.

    I have the exact same problem, meaning I have to reinstall a game I bought in iTtunes Store every time I plug in my iPod.
    I just tried the signing out, restart, signing in proces, but it didn't work for me.. any other suggestions how to solve this?
    I've been experiencing this problem ever since I updated itunes to 8.1, and even now after updated to 8.2 it's still the same..

  • Receiving unknown error (-9812) when trying to download songs.

    Each time I try to download or purchase songs, I receive the following message;
    We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occured (-9812)
    This has continued for several days now. I have tried running diagnostics - Which informs me that iTunes could not establish a secure connection - and have also followed advice on network and firewall settings. An email sent to me by iTunes support also failed to rectify the problem.
    I currently use Mozilla Firefox as my default browser and saw no change when I reverted back to using Internet Explorer 7. ( However, the problem did occur after installing Mozilla, which is also the only recent installation performed) My iTunes software is also currently up to date.
    I would be grateful if anyone were kind enough to please help me with this issue, it is driving my girlfriend and I crazy. Thank you.

    Having the same problem I tried to use FAQs, apple support and so on without any help.
    Apple is using connections "deep inside" Windows and security certificates to safely connect to the iTunes store. Therefore the normal answer by apple is to refer to network connection problems and the Microsoft support.
    On the german website, apple support even refers to a microsoft service page no more existing.
    The problem is: Apple does not really care if you are having trouble with an Windows connection problem. They suggest to contact Microsoft for support without even stating which security certificates or such are needed.
    The only solution as far as I know is a complete new Windows installation. A new iTunes installation is no help as the user account - if any - is no longer available. I tried this and now can't even listen to my legaly purchased music anymore.
    Sad to realize that excellent sales and good reputation with iTunes and iPod leaves Apple in a position not needing to cope with unhappy customers... There are too many others.

    somebody told me it might work and sure enough it did. I had 10-15 files that could not be sent to my iPod so it took a little while but eventually, everything was back to normal. Hopefully this works for you too!
