I purchased an album of ringtones on iTunes yet it won't recognize any?

I purchased an album of ringtones on iTunes. They only show up in my library and can play them as songs but not as ringtones. Can anybody help? I'm a little ticked off at how I spent $11 bucks on album and cant do anything!

You still have to create the ringtones. Yes, even though you thought you were buying ready made ringtones.
There are several ways to do this. Google will find them.
I prefer Garageband. It is quick and simple.

ITunes 7.5 won't recognize any ipods

Since iTunes updated to 7.5, it will not recognize any of my iPods. Not the classic, not the nano. Connecting with USB, and I don't have a firewire cable to try.
Error message is +"An iPod has been detected, but it could not be identified properly. Please disconnect and reconnect the iPod, then try again.+
I am posting here because I believe it to be an iTunes problem, not iPod. I see some have had this error in the iPod forums as well. I connected the classic to a windows machine, restored to factory settings, and then tried again, with no luck.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes.
I looked for drivers and I get the same error whether ipoddriver.kext is deleted or not. Same with the itunesiphonedriver.kext.
Help? I'm pretty sure this has something to do with the itunes update, but do not know how to go back to an earlier version.

I would delete the preference file. That should work. To do that, quit iTunes and go to User Name>Library>Preferences. Locate the com.apple.itunes. Delete this file. And empty the trash. Open iTunes. iTunes will act like that this is the first time you open iTunes and ask you a bunch of questions. Don't worry as your music, playlist, play count are all intact.

I purchased an album years ago on itunes and now iv bought a new laptop and want to put all my purchased music onto it, however it says iv only bought two songs off the one album. i know iv bought the whole album because ive got it on my iphone.

Hello there Nihalith,
It sounds like you are trying to download a purchased album, but not all the tracks are listed as being purchased. If you still have the receipt that was emailed to you when you bought it, you can use it to report a problem with the purchase to the iTunes Store directly with this article:

See the chart below to determine whether you can upgrade your device and what you can upgrade to. If you do not have a Software Update option present on your iDevice, then you are trying to upgrade to iOS 5 or higher. You will have to connect your device to your computer and open iTunes in order to upgrade.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I know it can be frustrating when your iPhone is not recognized in iTunes. There are some good troubleshooting steps however to help you get this resolved. The steps may be different depending if you are using an Apple computer or a Windows computer so I will include both articles.

I have just updated my iTunes and it won't play any of my songs. What do I do?

I have just updated my iTunes and it won't play any of my songs, It will say that it is but the time does not move along and the sound does not play. I have uninstalled and reinstalled it but it hasn't worked. What do I do?

Hey B Noir!
Changing the 3D worked for me!
I am so glad that I ran across your post. I had been reading "solutions" to this problem all day, and most of them said to install/unistall/re-install itunes! No way! I knew there had to be an easier way, and you had it. Just a few clicks, and that was it.
Thank you for your help!
God bless.

Turn it off by holding home+ power button untill the screen goes black ( as soon as it goes black, release the buttons).. This might take some practice , so dont worry if on the first try your phone reboots and goes to itunes screen again.
Now, with your phone powered off, enter DFU mode:
Method 1)
Attach the phone to the pc
Turn the phone off
Hold power and home together for *exactly* 10 seconds
Release power but keep holding home until the pc beeps as a USB device is recognized.
Whilist in dfu mode, itunes will recognize the device and it will ask you if you wish to restore it. Simply click restore, and the restoring proces will begin.
This will hopefully fix your iphone.
Cheers

The new Itunes 6.0 won't play any songs

Since i downloaded the new i tunes software, neither quicktime nor itunes will work. itunes opens but won't play any of my songs, and i think it has to do with quicktime.when i click on quicktime, it won't open and says that there is an error. maybe 7.0.3 did not download, but i've tried downloading it again, and the itunes repair wizard appears, not changing anything. is there anyway to fix this problem, or can i go back to itunes 5.5. please can someone help me. by the way its for a pc.

Cynthia,
Look at THIS topic from Adam. See if his solution works for you.

TS3540 iTunes and iPhoto won't recognize my iPhone when plugged into my mac.

iTunes and iPhoto won't recognize my iPhone 4S, or my wife's iPhone 4 when pluged into my MAC. I am running OSX v10.5.8, and both iPhones have the latest version of iOS. I tried a few of the other trouble shooting tips from the community, but nothing seems to work.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

ITunes & iPhoto suddenly won't recognize my iPhone 4S

I've made some purchases recently both in and out of iTunes, so I decided I wanted to download them to my phone this morning. I plugged in my iPhone 4S (v7.1.2) and opened iTunes (v11.3), but iTunes wouldn't recognize the phone, even after I rebooted the phone, checked the cable, rebooted and reinstalled iTunes, etc.
My phone is charging, so my MacBook (which is running Mavericks OS 10.9.4) is definitely connecting to it.
But when I tried iPhoto, it won't recognize my phone, either. I rechecked the cable. It seems to be fine. I even tried a new cable. No dice.
What's going on? Anyone else experience this? It's the first time since I first starting using iPhones in 2008 that I've ever had this kind of problem.
Thanks in advance!

What do you mean OS X won't allow you to uninstall iTunes?
Very rarely is needing to uninstall iTunes on a Mac before reinstalling required as is required with the spagetti code involved with Windoze.

Itunes for mac won't recognize ipod but iTunes on parallels will

Just upgraded itunes to 10.5 and purchased a new ipod classic (160gb). All my music is on my old macbook, but itunes won't recognize that the ipod is attached. Finder will, but iTunes won't. However, when I run iTunes in parallels desktop on the same mac, it recognizes the iPod and asks to sync. How do I get the mac itunes to recognize the ipod?

Sorry for the late response. I realised my notifications are off. I've tried that. All my software is up to date, setting for wifi sync are all checked off. I spent 1 hour on the phone with Apple with no results. Most threads are about Windows PC. I run a a MacBook. Variables could be my Linksys router but i/ve played with the firewall settings and nothing. I have a range extender but all devices are using the same network. Any final ideas?

ITunes 9.1 won't recognize my iPod.

I only use my classic iPod for mp3 music files ... no artwork, pictures, TV, radio, or ANYTHING other than my music. It worked fine for 3 years, but now, I plug-in my iPod and nothing happens. iTunes doesn't see it. I've taken all my hardware to an APPLE store and verified that eveything works well, but iTunes still won't see it. What a piece of crap this has turned out to be. I tried older versions of iTunes, but they won't execute because a file "iTunes Library.itl" was created by an updated version. Don't know what to do next. As a programmer, our top priority was to make new versions of our software BACKWARD COMPATIBLE ... no excuses, it HAD to work or else. Version 9 doesn't work backward.

I had the same problem. After reading some other posts I found the solution for now is removing itunes 9 and reinstalling iTunes 8.2.1 for G3. Open applications, remove the itunes app, also remove it from your dock. Open Finder, click Music, open itunes folder and move album artwork folder and itunes music folder to your desktop, delete all other files, librarygenius.itdb, library extras.itdb, music library.xml, and itunes library by moving them to trash and emptying. Don't worry once you download 8.2.1 for G3, http://support.apple.com/kb/DL857, and install it they will reappear. Reinstall 8.2.1, when install is done, open Itunes, go to Preferences, click the Advanced tab and uncheck "copy files when adding to itunes music folder". Now, open Music in Finder, open itunes and take your album artwork folder and itunes music folder from your desktop and place them back in the itunes folder in Music. Go to itunes, file, add to library and add the itunes music folder and your music will upload without creating duplicates. Once the adding is complete, lastly connect your Ipod and it should appear. Hopefully, this isn't difficult for you to understand but it worked for me.
Just a side note and this might not be necessary but I did it anyway; I opened up Finder and searched for any file that was connected to itunes and removed them all except for my artwork folder and itunes music folder. I tried uninstalling 9 and reinstalling 8.2.1 the way it is suggested in previous post and after I completed the process and I went to open up itunes, I got the error message "could not open because itunes was installed with a newer version". That is when I decided I will clean my mac of any files related to itunes, except for artwork and music, download 8.2.1, do a completely new install. Good luck.

Itunes won't recognize any of my music folders! Help!?

When I go to "File -> Add Folder To Library" And I go to my music folder, it only shows the "iTunes" folder and none of my other folders what so ever.
This is ******* me off. Can anyone help?
In the past, I've been able to go to files, add folder to library, select one or multiple files/folders and it would add all the music/cover art/whatever to my library.
Now, it won't even recognize any other folders on my computer that aren't all about itunes or my ipod.
HELP ME.
Here's a screenshot I took of my issue:
