HT4528 How do I attach a song I have downloaded to be the ringtone for specific contact

How do I attach a song I have bought on Itunes to be a ringtone for a specifica number?

You'll have to create a ringtone from it first as it is not in the correct format.  Do the following:
Connect your device to your computer, open iTunes and, wait for the name of your phone to appear, then go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.
If you're using iTunes 11, go to View>Show Sidebar.
Locate the song in your iTunes library, right-click on it, select "Get Info", on the Summary tab check if it says "Kind: Ringtone".  If it doesn't, then you must convert it to a ringtone, then sync it to your phone.
Convert the song to a ringtone following this video as a guide: Create free ringtones with iTunes 10 video - CNET TV.
Sync the ringtone to your phone by selecting it on the Tones tab of your iTunes sync settings, then clicking Apply at the bottom to sync your phone.  The ringtone should then be on your phone.

    No I never touch assuming ITunes protects them !
    I'm not sure what you mean by that.
    If you haven't done any of the things that I previously suggested, and you don't use something like Windows Media Player (which may rename songs), then the only other explanation is that you have disconnected the drive where the files are stored. So, are the songs on an external hard drive or memory stick? Have you recently added the music to your iTunes library and now that same music is missing?

  • TS3297 How to redownload a song that only downloaded 1/2 the song on a computer?

    How do you redownload a song that only downloaded 1/2 the song on a computer and then jumps to the next song?

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • Some of the songs I have downloaded onto i tunes won't play when I select it to do so.  The error message I get is "The song could not be used because the original file could not be found.  Would you like to locate it?"  How can I get my songs to play?

    Some of the songs I have downloaded into i tunes won't play when I select it to do so.  The error message I get is "The song can not be used because the original file can not be found.  Would you like to locate it?"  When I select yes I'm sent to a screen that has my i tunes library listed.  When I select the song in question I'm asked if I would like to open the song.  When I select this option I get nothing.  The songs I have downloaded must be somewhere because they are listed in my i tunes library and on the screen I've been sent to.  I can't the songs to play however.  This is not true of all of my songs but it is true of quite a few of them.  Actually, one song is too many.    How do I get my music to play that seems to be locked up somewhere in the computer?

    Presuming they're on your computer, right click on them and then follow the prompts to locate hte file on your computer.

  • How do I add multiple songs to an existing playlist from the (no longer called) Library? Highlighting multiple songs and clicking the "Add to" button will only add the with the little arrow, not all the highlighted ones!

    How do I add multiple songs to an existing playlist from the (no longer called) Library? Highlighting multiple songs and clicking the "Add to" button will only add the one with the little arrow, not all the highlighted ones! I am using the "new" iTunes.

    For the moment there isn't a way for us end-users to control what is "matched" or "uploaded." That is purely a result of Apple's server-side algorithms.
    To re-add multiple songs at once simply highlight all the songs you want to re-add, then right-click (or Control+click) the list and choose "add to iCloud."

  • I have an older Ipod shuffle with many songs loaded on it. How can I transfer these songs to a new computer since the old computer is no longer available

    I have an oder Ipod shuffle with many songs loaded on it. How can I transfer ths songs to a new computer since the old computer is no longer available?

    I had the same problem with my iPad, i couldn't get the newer version of itunes because the computer was too old and my iPad couldnt sync with the old itunes. I got a PC from school a few months later so that solved the problem for me. Unfortunately i don't think there would be a program to put your music on your iPod, iTunes should be the only way to transfer files to Apple devices. What operating system are you running and what version of it is it?

    how do you get your songs to play after you authorized the computer your on itunes?

    Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola.
    If it's a Mac, try Senuti or Music Rescue.

    Diavonex was not treating this as a joke. He was giving you the answer to your question in a perfectly polite and respectful way. Without the Apple ID credentials to which the iPad is locked or proof that you are the original purchaser, there's nothing you can do. The device is useless to you.
