How to find purchased ringtones on iPhone 4s

I'm new to all this. New to iPhone, new to smart phones, basically new to iTunes - I've had the software on my computers for years, somewhere along the line I created an account but really never used iTunes.
I bought a ringtone on my phone and want to put in on my wife's phone - we share the same iTunes account. After I purchased the ringtone, it showed up in my ringtones fine. However I can't figure out how to get it on the other phone, while playing around trying to find the way I went to the store from my phone, from the ringtones settings and can't even find that purchase at all. I know I was charged for it. When I look at recent purchases it has options for:
Music
Movies
TV Shows
When I tap Music it shows all the music we've purchased but no ringtones - no option for Ringtones or Tones on recent purchases so I'm lost, please help and remember, I come from a Windows background and am not that fimilar with iTunes. I've googled for restoring lost ringtones but all the directions seem to be for a previous version of iTunes because I can't find what they are talking about.
Thank You for your help!!

while I was playing around last night in between your answers to my questions I hit 'Consolidate Files' on the right click for the ringtone and didn't restart iTunes, didn't think about it last night but if the files were moved maybe iTunes needed to be restarted. I do not know this software but I'm guessing that is the cuase of my problems.
However I did hit Revert and Apply so I don't know.
On iTunes when you click menu File > Library > Organize Library... > Consolidate Files, you are letting iTunes manage your content, it will make a copy of your content to the path where iTunes keeps indices, media structures, etc.
It is a good idea to do that since it will update the database as well.
I am wondering if I should delete the back-ups for both phones and start over following your procedures again, I'm just a bit leary to do that. If I go that route, would I need to deregister and re-register phones too?
You can delete the backups in iTunes > Preferences...(Windows: Edit > Preferences...) > Devices > delete the backup here. After that, you can right click on iPhone in iTunes sidebar and do a fresh new Backup.

No, you do not need to de-register and re-register iPhones.

  • How to find purchased apps - Stolen iPhone and New Computer

    I got a new iPhone 3gs, but had a broken laptop at the time. I set up iTunes on the phone and went on holiday. Whilst on holiday, my iPhone was stolen. Now I am back, my laptop is fixed (but had to be completely wiped and so iTunes and apps lost), and I have just received my replacement iPhone.
    I have downloaded iTunes, and put in my iTunes login, and was hoping my apps would magically appear, but they don't seem to be anywhere.
    I'm worried that because my iPhone was not plugged into my computer after downloading the apps and before losing the phone, I have lost them completely, and some of them were quite pricey and I downloaded loads.
    Any advice appreciated, or should I just cut my losses and give up trying and just start again?

    Log into iTunes, view your account and *Purchase history* to see what you have purchased.
    You can redownload Apps for free.

    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 to find which model of iPhone 5 I am using? and is that GSM or CDMA?

    How to find which model of iPhone 5 I am using? A1428 or A1429 ? Is there any short code you can dial in and check the model number ?
    And which is GSM or CDMA out of this model.

    If you purchased the phone in the US with an AT&T contract then you have the locked CDMA A1428 version of the iPhone 5. 
    At the moment and if the contract is a new contact, then you won't be able to get the phone unlocked at the moment and no, you won't be able to use it in your home country.  You will also have LTE 4G compatibility issues too and your phone will only work on 3G and also you need to remember that iPhones are only covered by country specific warranty, so it is only covered in the US, so if you go home and then have a problem with your phone, you will have to come back to the US to get it repaired.
    You need to approach AT&T about whether they will unlock your phone for you as they are the ONLY ones that can do it, but the answer to your question is no and if you had wanted to use your phone at home, then you should not have purchased it in the US.  The best that you can hope for at the moment is to use it on international/roaming.
    If you purchased your phone in the US, then it will be a CDMA phone.  You don't have a GSM phone, but GSM phones are unlocked anyway and these are the ones that are selling in Canada and the UK.
    If you have your phone on an AT&T contract then ultimately, AT&T are the only ones who can help you with any questions regarding unlocking and they are the only ones who can unlock it for you, noone else.

  • How to find out whether my Iphone 3Gs is officlially unlocked ( factory unlocked ) or "made" unlocked ? Can I upgrade its OS to OS 5 even if my phone is "made" unlocked ? how to up gared its OS ? are there any better ways to do it ?

    How to find out whether my Iphone 3Gs (OS version 3.1.3) is officlially unlocked ( factory unlocked ) or "made" unlocked ? Can I upgrade its current OS 3.1.3 to OS 5 even if my phone is not officlially unlocked ? how to up grade its OS ? what are there any better ways to do it ?
    Thanks,
    PRANAJ

    Depends wher you obtained the iPhone from and it's original supplier
    If the iPhone is an authorised unlock ( approved by the carrier) or was
    purchased from Apple as an unlocked iPhone  updating the iOS
    will have no effect on the iPhone and it's lock status
    HOWEVER if the software has been tampered with to remove the lock,
    updating the iOs will lock the iPhone back to the original carrier who holds the lock
    To find out the status of your iPhone  you could call Apple support
    and they may tell you if the iPhone is locked or not and if it is which carrier

    can any one help how to find purchase order bapi.

    This isn't a Web Dynpro Specific question - moving to ABAP general.
    However have you considered going to SE80 and searching for function modules that begin with the name BAPI and have purc in the name?  Or maybe going to the BAPI Browser transaction (T-Code BAPI) and searching either in the Hiearchy or Alphabetical list.  Probably not too difficult to find the purchase order object.

  • How to find the date my iPhone 4s was manufactured

    Hi, Please can anyone tell me how to find the date my iPhone 4s 64gb was manufactured. I have the serial and i-m-e numbers. For some reason my Insurance company want to know, all I wanted to do was add the phone to my all risks policy. Thanks in advance for any advice.

    That's all you will get, there is no way to know the manufactured date only the warranty status from date of original sale and it is most unlikely your warranty is still "good" on an iPhone 4

  • Could someone tell me how to find purchase date so I can register

    Could someone tell me how to find purchase date so I can register my Airport extreme on the Apple Support Profile page?

    Unless something has changed, the Apple does not provide a specific support warranty for their AirPort products. Instead, typically, you would get this type of warranty only if your purchased an Apple desktop or laptop at the same time and the AirPort would be covered under that one.
    If you bought the AirPort directly from Apple, they should have a copy of the receipt. Otherwise, if you used a credit card, check with your card provider.

    How to recover purchased ringtones after wiping phone and laptop

    From your computer backup.
    Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not all media formats are available in all countries (see: iTunes in the Cloud, iTunes Match, and iTunes Radio availability by country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085); apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this).  Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones, audiobooks), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple recommends,  "... back up your iTunes library.
