HT204389 Creating ringtones from itunes iPhone 5

Creating ringtones from itunes iPhone 5?

The name of the folder shown on the left under Library changed to Tones recently but I thought the tab at the top, while syncing, still said Ringtones.  I guess I'm not sure.   At any rate there are many youtube videos that will walk you through this if you want to check to be sure you are doing it correctly.  Here's one I picked at random: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwXUM2kCfig.

  • How do I create ringtones from iTunes songs with Garageband?

    I have an iPhone 5s.  Is it possible to convert itunes songs into ringtones with Garageband ios?

    Yes, you can, if you sync your iTunes songs to the Music.app.
    See this Help-Page:
    http://help.apple.com/garageband/iphone/2.0/index.html#chs39284d66
    Share a GarageBand song as a ringtone or text tone
    In the My Songs browser, tap the Select button, then tap the song you want to export (or touch and hold the song).
    Tap the Action button , then tap Share Song As Ringtone.The Export Ringtone panel opens, showing the name for the ringtone. By default, the ringtone uses the same name as the song.The maximum length for exported ringtones is 30 seconds. If the exported ringtone exceeds the maximum length, a dialog appears. Tap Continue to have GarageBand shorten the ringtone automatically, or tap Cancel to return to the song so you can shorten it.
    To rename the ringtone, tap the name and type a new name.
    Tap Export.
    In the Ringtone Export Successful panel, do one of the following:
    To return to the My Songs browser, tap OK.
    To choose a use for the ringtone, tap Use sound as, then do one of the following:
    To use the ringtone as your standard ringtone, replacing the existing ringtone, tap Standard Ringtone.
    To use the ringtone as your standard text tone, replacing the existing text tone, tap Standard Text Tone.
    To see a list of your contacts, tap Assign to Contact, then tap the contact you want to use the ringtone with.
    To return to the My Songs browser without assigning the ringtone, tap Done to return.
    The next time you sync your device, the ringtone also appears in the GarageBand File Sharing area in iTunes. You can drag it to the Tones list to add it to your iTunes ringtone library.
    And see this page, how to add a song from the Music.app to a track in GarageBand:

  • HT1473 My laptop hard drive crashed and I lost my ringtones, but they're still on my iPhone.  If I sync my iPhone with the reimaged hard drive, I'll lose the ringtones from my iPhone.  Is there any way to transfer ringtones from my iPhone back into iTunes

    My laptop hard drive crashed and I lost my ringtones, but they're still on my iPhone.  If I sync my iPhone with the reimaged hard drive, I'll lose the ringtones from my iPhone.  Is there any way to transfer ringtones from my iPhone back into iTunes?

    Thanks, but ringtones not purchased from iTunes, created them just before computer crashed.just before the next scheduled biweekly backup.
    I found and downloaded TouchCopy 12 for PC and was able to copy the ringtones from my iPhone to my Windows laptop very easily.  It also enables you to transfer photos, memos, voice messages, etc.

  • How do I get ringtone from iTunes to iPhone?

    I bought a ringtone from iTunes, but it downloaded itself to 'Music' folder instead of the 'Tones' folder. I can sync it to my iPhone (in the music folder) but cannot select it as a ringtone. Bizarre!
    In addition, the inflexibility of iTunes means that I cannot simply drag and drop the ringtone to the tones folder in iTunes on my mac prior to sync. No idea why?
    Can anyone help? In short, how do I get my iTunes purchased ring tone in to the ringtones folder on my iPhone. Surely it cannot be so unecessarily complicated ...?
    Thanks.

    You probably purchased a song that was designed to be converted to a ringtone.  To confirm this, right-click on the file in iTunes, select "Get Info", then verify on the Summary tab that ie says "Kind:Ringtone".  If it doesn't, you must frst convert it to a ringtone, then import the converted file into the Tones folder of your iTunes library in order to sync it to your phone.  This video will show you how to do this: http://cnettv.cnet.com/create-free-ringtones-itunes-10/9742-1_53-50093086.html.  (If you're using iTunes 11, first go to View>Show Sidebar in order to follow along with the video.)

  • I downloaded a ringtone from Itunes and apple owned company to my Iphone4 and then followed all the instructions sent to itunes on pc and synced back to iphone still got squat. Why does apple need to be so hard for something so simple.

    I downloaded a ringtone from itunes (an apple company) to my iphone4 (an Apple product). Followed all the instructions from "Help" boards, sent to itunes on my pc converted to m4r synced back to iphone and still got squat. I thought iphones and apple were supposed to be so user friendly? Any other phone you download a ringtone click on it "use as ringtone" and your done.

    Frank, thanks for your note.  I wrote "COMPLETED" because I had gone to a lot of effort to get the content of the book precisely as I wanted it. I would fully expect to see my level of effort and care matched by functional competence in Aperture 3 to render the book the way I created it.  Too much to ask?
    And yes, I upgraded the Aperture 2 Library first.  [Not ALL my tens of 000s of pix, because I use Lightroom selectively for photo editing. But Yes to the Aperture 2 Library.]  That step took a number of minutes, but seemed to work fine (no error messages of any kind).
    Then I opened the existing book project in Aperture 3, which followed some "magic-box" process that took a minute or so.  As I said, when that step was done, by all appearances the book was ready to submit for printing - until I examined the photos a little more closely.  You did see the blurry example I included, didn't you? That is what each and every photo looks like.
    Text-box content appears to have been rendered pertectly, for the record (including captions).
    So, ... is this result something you have heard of before?  Do you know of a one-step solution?  Or am I looking at an extended picture-by-picture fix?

  • Creating Ringtones on itunes for iPhone

    I have been trying to create ringtones for my iPhone from itunes.
    But every time I try ti great it, it comes up with an unknow error 1156. and says that itunes cannot connect to itunes store.
    Is anyone else is also facing this problem?

    This worked for me...
    In iTunes, right click on the song you are going to make into a ringer and select “Get Info.”
    Go to the options tab and go down to the “Start Time” and “Stop Time” check boxes. Check both boxes and input the time you want your ringtone to start/stop. The ringtone has to be 30 seconds or less. Click OK when you’re done.
    Right click on your newly “clipped” song and select “Convert Selection to AAC.” The song will be re-encoded using the start and stop times determined (If your menu item does not read “Convert Selection to AAC” and reads “Convert Slection to MP3″ (or some other format) please go to iTunes > Preferences > Advanced > Importing and change the “Import Using” drop down menu to “AAC Encoder”).
    After the song is done encoding navigate to your iTunes Music folder, locate your song, and drag it to your desktop. After the song is on your desktop go back to iTunes and delete the clipped version from you iTunes library (It won’t delete it from your desktop, it will only remove it from iTunes).
    Go back the song on your desktop and right click on your song and chose “Get info.” Go to the name and extension section and change the extension from .m4a to .m4r (or you can just change the extension right from your desktop)
    After the extension is changed simply double click on the file to add it to your iTunes library under the ringtones section. Sync your phone with iTunes and you’re done!
    What you need to do is turn on "View File Extensions" under your folder view options.
    Then go to your desktop right-click, rename and change the .m4a to .m4r and sey yes when it asks if youre sure.

  • Missing Ringtone When Syncing with iTunes - How do I remove Corrupt Ringtones from my iPhone?

    PLEASE HELP!  I've been having trouble with a ringtone I purchased a few months back. Everything was fine, until a month ago when i synced my phone with iTunes, and my ringtone suddenly disappeared.  I have tried several times to sync / resync my phone again and again, and the ringtone is not there.  It is in my iTunes library under Tones, and it plays when I double-click on it.  But for some reason it won't sync over to my phone.  I've been in contact with Apple Support over email and they have put the ringtone back on my account twice, and both times I have been able to download it back directly to my iPhone.  But it's the same story all over again when I sync with iTunes... the ringtone just disappears, even when I checked "Sync Tones".
    Interestingly enough, when I take a look at my iPhone in iTunes, under Tones, there are 4 instances of the ringtone, all of them have an error icon next to them, as shown in the screenshot below:
    I've tried to NOT sync ringtones, but this list still appears.  For some reason I cannot delete these corrupt ringtones from my phone.
    In my library, the ringtones appear fine, and play fine when I double-click on them.  I don't know why there are 2 of them though.
    Please help!  I've been at this for a month and cannot find a solution!  I've re-bought the ringtone twice, but everytime I sync, it disppears all over again.  I think removing the corrupt ringtones from the iPhone may solve the issue.  Once I remove the corrupt files, I can start from scratch since the ones in my library play fine.  But the problem is I don't know how to remove the corrupt files from my phone.  Please help!

  • I downloaded Ringtone from iTunes into my iPhone 6 and set it as the default Ringtone. Worked well until I had to recharge my phone. Now disappearred from my iPhone but shows in Tones when phone sync'd. How do I get to show back as default Ringtone

    I downloaded a Ringtone from iTunes into my iPhone 6 and set it as the default Ringtone.Worked well until I had to recharge my phone.The Ringtone has now disappeared from my iPhone and I'm left with just the Ringtones that come standard with iPhone 6. I sync'd my phone and it shows in the Tones folder. How do I get the Ringtone back as a default Ringtone in my iPhone 6. Quite frustrating!!

    In iTunes, try signing out of your Apple ID & then back in: click on iTunes Store on the left sidebar of iTunes, click on your Apple ID on the top right, sign out, sign back in.  Then try to sync your purchased music to your phone again.

  • Can't drag and drop apps and ringtones from itunes into the iphone.

    I'm sure it's something that I have to enable in itunes or the iphone, but I can't seem to drag and drop my apps or ringtones from itunes. This started when I got a replacement phone from my provider. I can't transfer them on my itunes. I get a block icon when I try to drag and drop. So the only way to get all the apps back is by re-downloading on the phone itself, but some apps are huge and I wouldn't want to do that. All the apps I backed up and even new ones I purchased can't seem to transfer. I tried deauthorizing and authorizing, re-downloading apps, syncing. So far nothing. Any tips?

    Thanks for trying but your answer is incorrect, according to an email I received today from HP Connected:
    "I have reviewed your email. I understand that you have questions related to rearranging the order of the apps on the printer. I know this can be frustrating, and I want you to know you're certainly valuable to us and I want to do everything possible to ensure your complete satisfaction. The following information should provide the answers you need:
    1) Unfortunately when HP launched the new website (www.hpconnected.com) they did not include a method of rearranging the apps on the printer. They may include this feature in a future update, however as this time it is not available.
    2) If you have made the upgrade from eprintcenter to HP Connected you do not have the option of returning. Eprintcenter is in the process of being eliminated and unfortunately retuning to the old site is not possible."
    I hope <<S-O-O-N>> HP fixes this new website -- it's crazy to take away any controls like this from their customers and not either embellish them or at least leave them be.
    I may take this 7610 OJ back for a new Brother 11x17 all-in-one --- they look nice )

  • I bought a ringtone from Itunes, after I synched my Iphone 4, the ringtone is gone - why?

    Does anyone know how to retrieve a purchased ringtone from Itunes?
    I bought one last week, and after I synched my Iphone 4 my purchased ringtone is gone. I have the Itunes receipt, but keep getting caught in a big loop when I try to report a problem. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
    Carter

    I am having the same problem. I downloaded it from my 4S and my ITunes account shows it was downloaded. It's not listed in the ringtones on my 4S. When I open ITunes, and plug in my 4S, I can look at the media on my device. There is a checkmark next to it and a circle to the far left, but it is not on my phone. This has not happened before. Hopefully there will be an answer soon.

  • Ive purchased ringtones from itunes.  They were assigned to contacts.  I did the latest update and now now of them are in the list of ringtones.  I've synced twice and they are not on my iphone.  Does anyone know how to find them?

    Ive purchased ringtones from Itunes.  They were working before I did the recent update.  I cannot find them on the iPhone and they are no longer assigned - I had five. I have synced several times and does anyone know where they are or how to assign them again?

    On your iPhone tap Settings > Store
    Make sure Music is switched on.
    Now reset your iPhone.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • HT1751 Few days back i bought 8 ringtones from my iphone application for itunes and when yesterday I sync it with itunes all my ringtones washed off. I tried to again download the same ringtones from itunes then it again asked for payment. Why?

    Few days back i bought 8 ringtones from my iphone application for itunes and when yesterday I sync it with itunes all my ringtones washed off. I tried to again download the same ringtones from itunes then it again asked for payment. Why?

    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)
