HT1386 I BOUGHT RINGTONES ON MY IPAD BUT THEY DON'T SHOW UP ON MY IPHONE. DO I HAVE TO PURCHASE THEM ON BOTH DEVICES?

I recently bought ringtones from my ipad thinking that they would also be on my iphone. They are not showing up, do i have to purchase them on both devices?

Settings > Sounds > Ringtone > they should appear in the list.
If they don't show, try syncing your iPhone with your PC and then see if they appear.

  • I purchased tones on my ipad, but they don't show up on my computer or iphone

    Being that Apple doesn't allow my ringtones from my 5 to transfer to my new 6, I had to purchase new tones, from itunes. Well, I purchased the tones from my ipad, but now they won't show up on my computer, or my iphone 6. I set all of the machines up to sync wireless, and to share as well, but have had no luck. I am almost inclined to return this **** phone; can anyone please help?  Thanks

    I connected the ipad to the computer, but it is not the computer assigned to the phone (we have two different desktops). The older computer is where the ipad gets synced, and the new computer is where the iphone gets synced.
    Is there a way to get the tones transferred to the new computer?

  • I am trying to transfer my movies (mp4 files) to my IPad, but they are not showing up on the IPad. I have 13 movies showing on my IPad that they are in ICloud. I've sync'd the movies I want to the IPad, but only one is showing under the "movies" folder. ?

    I have been trying to transfer some different movies from my PC to my IPad, but they are not showing in the "movie" folder. I have sync'd the movies (these are mp4 files) that I wanted transfered, but only one is showing in the folder. There are 13 other movies in the folder that have the ICloud symbol in the corner of their picture. I understand that I can pull those movies from ICloud any time I want to watch them, but I want to watch the ones that I've just sync'd with my IPad. How do I find them? After I checked the movies I wanted, I "applied" them and watched it sync and copy the wanted movies to my IPad. Now what?  Thanks.

    There are some good programs that you could use to convert the format, Handbrake or Mpegstreamclip are two good free ones. Convert them to MP4 and then try importing them again.

  • HT201269 I downloaded the iOS7, lost all the custom ring tones that I had on my phone, how do i get them back.  when I sync my phone, itunes says that they have been selected, but they don't show up on my phone

    I downloaded the iOS7, lost all the custom ring tones that I had on my phone.  the iTunes sync page says that they have all been selected but they don't show up in my phone? Help?

    I had the same problem and was able to fix it. Go to your iTunes and click on the Tones folder on the left under library. Some of my ring tones had an exclamation mark next to it and those were the ones that did not sync. You have to click on those and find it in your computer. Once the exclamation mark is gone, go to Tones section of your device in iTunes, make sure you select the tones you want synced, and click apply. I hope that helps you!

  • I have downloaded 2 movies from itunes to my ipad, but they are not showing up on itunes.  where are they?  how can i find them?

    I have downloaded 2 movies from itunes to my ipad 2, but they are not showing up in itunes.  where can i find them?

    Tap the Videos app and tap the movies button at the top of the page.
    The iTunes app on your iPad is just a conduit to the iTunes Store.  To play your purchases, use the iPod app or the Videos app.

  • I've downloaded audio books successfully to my iPod, but they don't show up on my iTunes.. and I want to delete some.

    I've successfully downloaded audio books to my iPod for years but now they don't show up on iTunes, not under Music, not under books or Audiobooks - nowhere!
    And I want to delete some...

    Hello, mimi2216. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    This could be a result of Automatic Downloads not being enabled, the apps were too large to download via the cellular data network or a cellular data connection was not available at the time of download.  The best option would be to download the missing apps via the steps in the second article below.

  • I bought a ringtone on my ipad but I can't get it on my iphone

    I bought a tone on my ipad but it won't appear on my iphone.

    Do you have automatic downloads enabled for Music with your Apple ID on the iPhone - Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Automatic Downloads?
    Do you have automatic downloads enabled with iTunes on your computer - the computer used for syncing with the iPad and iPhone?
    If so, the ringtone should be avaialble in your iTunes library on your computer which can be transferred to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process - selected under the Tones tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. Or you can transfer content purchased from the iTunes store from your iPad to your iTunes library with iTunes on your computer followed by selecting this ringtone under the Tones tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.
    You have a number of options and this isn't all of them.

  • I bought Songs from the Store but they did not show up in my library

    I bought two american idol performances today, when they finished downloading, they didn't show up in my library. I checked for available downloads and it said that everything has been downloaded. Of course i was billed for these items in my purchase history but i do not have them. What should i do? Does anyone have any solutions.

    See if this helps: iTunes Music Store: Finding missing music and video downloads
    If you still can't find your purchases you can email iTunes Store Customer Services from this link. Choose a category that most closely describes your problem and add any additional information in the box provided: Customer Service - iTunes Store Support

  • I purchase ringtones on iphone, but they don't show up as purchased in itunes and i can't transfer from iphone to itunes.

    I have an iphone 3 on which i downloaded ringtones, two of which are not showing in itunes.  I now just purchased the iphone 4s.  When I synced the ringtones, those two were of course missing.  How do I get itunes to recognize that I purchased those ringtones on the iphone 3?
    Thanks!

    Well Defcom, your last response didn't fix it, however, it helped!
    You had me delete com.apple.ichat.AIM.plist and com.apple.ichatAgent.plist. I did that and restarted with no luck. However, when I was in there, I found one other file that was related that you didn't mention, com.apple.ichat.plist. I deleted it too, restarted and boom, it works and she shows up now. Also, the fonts and such are working properly now too haha. So while you didn't solve it, you pretty much did! Thanks for your timely and helpful responses!

  • Merged contacts to iCloud on iPhone but they don't show up on my iPad2

    I just completed the upgrade to both devices last night.  It went very smooth ( not quickly mind you ) with only one issue noticed so far with the Apple native Apps. The iPhone went first.  I sent my Calendar and Contacts to the cloud.  All seemed OK.  I then updated the iPad and after turning on calendar and contacts I noticed the calendar was still there but the contacts are not. I turned both off and on and no change.

    I had the same issue....within the address book app..... tap the "groups" tab and the page will flip and you will have the option to choose contacts from the cloud or from the computer..... choose the one with your email address associated with the cloud.... this worked for me.... my address book was then populated with all my contacts...

  • I transfer documents to Pages, but they don't show up?

    I transfered two different documents through iTunes (one document in .doc and the other in .rtf), and it said they both synced. But when I disconnect (or even still leave the iPad connected), my documents aren't showing up.
    I even tried restarting the iPad, but that didn't do anything as well.
    Help, anyone?

    From Pages (and the two other iWorks apps too) you need to go to the my documents screen and touch the icon with the open-top box and in arrow and then touch the Copy from iTunes button.

  • I purchased songs on my iPhone but they don't show up in my iPod touch

    I recently purchased songs via iTunes on my iPhone and I do see them on my iPad however not on my iPod touch. Ipod is of the first generation. How can I make them appear there? Thanks.

    The 1G iPod (iOS 3.1.3)does not support the automatic download feature. You have to sync them to your 1G iPod.

  • I purchased a ringtone on my ipad but I want to use it on my iphone, how do I do this?

    Please help me

    Ringtones are currently a one-time only download, so you will need to copy it from your iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases and you can then sync it to your iPhone
