  • I have created a m4.r file as a ringtone and its sitting in the Tones file on my iTunes.  I have synced my iPhone 5 with iTunes but it does not appear as an option on Ringtones screen?

    I have created a m4.r file as a ringtone in Tones on my iTunes.  How do I get to transfer it to the iPhone 5 and then convert it to a ringtone?

    Yes, it has to be smaller than 35 seconds.
    Enjoy your ringtone.

  • Every time I sync my iphone 4 with itunes my ring custom ring tones change.  I have 7 custom ring tones in itunes.  One time it will load 1 custom ring tone the next it may be 3 then the next it is one again.  The last time it gave me 4 of the 7.

    Every time I sync my iPhone 4 with iTunes the number of my custom ring tones change.  I have 7 custom ring tones listed.   The first time it will load 1 of the ring tones and the next time it will load 3,  The next time it will be back to 1.  If I have assigned one of the custom ring tones and it does not get loaded it goes back to the ring tone that came with the phone.  The last time itunes gave me 4 of the 7 so I have not tried to sync it again.  I am using iTunes 10 (10.4.10), and windows 7.
    Has anyone else had this problem??
    Any ideas to what I need to do??

    Have you ever had all 7 of them synced before? Are these ringtones you made yourself? Is there a chance they could exceed 30 seconds in length? Is there a chance you have moved the original file location on the computer? May need the answers to a couple more questions to try and determine an answer.

    please help my to sync my new applications with my PC

    Unfortunately just saying "OSX" isn't enough in this case because it applies to 10 different system versions.. You have to have at least OSX 10.6 (Snow Leopard).

  • I get an error message when I sync my iPhone 5 with itunes on a Windows 7 laptop. When I go back to my music there are exclamation marks next to many songs. I have reinstalled iTunes

    I get an error message when I sync my iPhone 5 with iTunes on my Windows 7 Samsung laptop.  I recently backed up all of my data using Samsung Recovery Solution 5 to an external hard drive so that I could restore my laptop.  I put all of my data back on the restored laptop and reinstalled iTunes. After the error message that says that certain items could not be found and the "sync" is finished I go back to my music in iTunes and there are exclamation marks next to many songs.  I follow some instructions regarding the Edit - Preferences - Advanced settings and the exclamation marks go away until I try to sync my phone again.  Then I get the same error message and the exclamation marks return.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and the same thing happens again.  I am about to schedule an appointment with the Genius Bar but would like to avoid that if possible.  Thank you in advance for any help. 

    Hello Courtney,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when syncing your music to your iPhone.  It sounds like iTunes is not able to locate the original file for the song to transfer it to your device.  I recommend reviewing the following articles to locate you music files on your computer:

  • Erratic syncing on iPhone 5s with iTunes 11

    I am going crazy trying to sync my iPhone 5s with iTunes 11.1.3.8. There is plenty of space as my iPhone is 64gb with apparantly 36.5gb available. Approx. 15.4gb of this is currently taken up by music, but it should be far more. I don't know if it is an iTunes problem or an iPhone problem - or both!
    I've always added music to my iPhone manually by dragging folders on to the device in iTunes (with "manually manage music" ticked in the settings). This never used to cause any problems, and I prefer it to having all my music choices in iTunes as I have different devices with different capacity etc.
    Since using my new iPhone, syncing is going wrong every time in strange and unpredictable ways:
    1. Not all the music will sync, seemingly at random.
    Some albums have the grey circle next to them and won't add whether I delete and re-add or not
    Some albums had the grey circle but synced when I deleted and re-added (these are the same type of files and from the same source as the ones that still don't sync)
    Some music suddenly shows up with the ! symbol and won't sync, for no reason - sometimes this is even a random selection of tracks on the same album stored in the same location.
    Some music appears in iTunes as though it is on the device, but doesn't show in the iPhone e.g. out of dozens of Bowie songs only 2 show up on the phone
    The last time I synced I added an audiobook of short stories, with each story as a track. When I went to listen to it this morning, around two thirds of the tracks had randomly disappeared. After syncing they seem to be back, but I have no idea why they vanished last time and if it will happen again.
    Sometimes after syncing a whole playlist will have gone blank in the iPhone i.e. tracks aren't there, but when I connect to iTunes the playlist appears as it should be. Syncing sometimes fixes this, but might then empty another playlist...
    2. I manually set compilation albums to "sort by album artist" e.g. changing my short stories audiobook to show under Artists as "Short Stories" rather than each author as an album with 1 track. At random, when I am looking through artists on my iPhone I notice that one or two albums have ungrouped, even though I didn't touch any settings in between.
    3. When I'm connected to iTunes the usage bar at the bottom seems to fluctuate randomly sometimes. Currently, having just synced, it shows 15.4gb audio with 36.44gb free. Ok now I added 1 album which is 92.5mb and synced - just that one chance.. Usage bar now reads 21.76gb audio with 30.08gb free. Now I'm adding a 173mb folder of 2 albums and syncing. Usage bar now reads 15.51gb with 36.16gb free. Somehow after adding 3 albums and not changing anything else, I end up with more space than before??
    I'm at a loss as to why iTunes/my iPhone is behaving so erratically. Perhaps the above are seperate, unrelated problems, but I'm writing them all here in case they are all linked to one problem.
    I have tried syncing using the original cable and over wifi. Have also rebooted the phone and restarted, to no avail.
    Please help me with some suggestions of what is going on and how to fix it? Let me know if you need any more info.

    Hit there tayls22,
    It sounds as if you are having some issues with your ability to create a backup in iTunes of your iPhone, which prevents you from completing the sync process. I have an article for you that can help you troubleshoot this issue further, and it can be found below:

    when i sync my iphone 4 with itunes, always show "determining apps to sync

    I've been experiencing the same problems, until my friend told me to manage my songs and albums manually instead of syncing it. to do that, connect your phone to the macbook via usb and go to 'songs', and scroll down. check the box that says 'manually manage songs and albums', and from there all you do is drag-and-drop your playlists into your iphone under the 'device' tabs. as for the random songs, uncheck the box that says 'automatically fill free space with songs'. hope this helps!

  • HT1212 Using the "if you have never synched with itunes" instructions, will I lose all data on the phone? That is the most important information, how to recover the data. The phone is fungible.

    Using the "if you have never synched with itunes" instructions, will I lose all data on the phone? That is the most important information, how to recover the data. The phone is fungible.

    Thanks @ KiltedTim, but losing "only" any data is really not acceptable and, in this case, the phone had not been backed up, but thanks for taking the time. Also, yes, fungible means what I think it means. An iphone is a completely substitutible commodity, unlike my data, so instructions that inform me as to how to fix a phone I could replace for a small sum of money while failing to address the more important issue of the data are almost useless - they potentially save me the $99 it would cost me to replace the phone if I were so inclined to trust another apple product. Not worth the hour it took to find them or the 35 minutes on the phone to confirm my suspicions about the data.

  • My Ipad 2 was working fine, after  syncronizing with iTunes the contacts App froze completely, in the Settings everything works, but if you go to the mail settings they the settings freeze. I can't send Emails. I am using outlook, anybody has an answer?

    My Ipad 2 was working fine, after syncronizing with iTunes the contacts App froze completely, in the Settings everything works fine but if you go to the mail settings the entitre settings freezes. I am usng Outlook but can't send mails.  Any body has a solution?

    Update to above question:
    Hello All,
    To anyone with the same problem described above, on THEIR iPad (if it is running iOS 7.0.2):
    Go to Settings; Mail, Contacts, Calendars; DELETE your *******@btinternet.com e-mail account, that you originally set up either using 'Other', or the 'BT' option which I am sure was in the list previous to the iOS 7 update.
    Then ADD a NEW account choosing YAHOO from the list of options. DO NOT USE 'OTHER'.
    Enter the correct details just as you (almost certainly) had already done in your previous attempts using 'other'.
    When you see the 'verifying......' and 'the blue ticks' you should be able to exit settings and open your mail app and then receive all your 'old' e-mails again, AND be able to SEND as well.
    All my 'old' e-mails, were NOT found in the 'old e-mail' folder though. THEY are still in my inbox.
    So this fix worked for me.
    After I deleted my account from 'OTHER' and put it in Yahoo, I like other people also ended up with more folders.
    I hope this works for you on YOUR Apple devices.
    Bob

  • My iphone 4 keeps searching the software update

    Hi,
    My iphone keeps searching for the software update if i tap on it.
    Whats up?

    iOS 5 or later is required to be able to download and install iOS updates direct with the iPhone.
    All apps, all paid and free apps include DRM protection that is tied to the iTunes account or Apple ID that was used to download the apps. App updates for all apps downloaded with your GF's Apple ID can be updated with your GF's Apple ID only.
