Individual contact ringtones

Individual contact ringtones are not working on my new S5. What can I do to fix this? It's annoying!
Thanks!

Rottieone,
Thank you for reaching out to us. I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with features on your device. I just got this phone recently myself and love, so I hope you are as well. What exact issues are you having with the ringtone setup? Are you using a 3rd party app to set this up or uploading music to your phone from a SD card or computer? Do you get any error message? Please fill us in and I am sure that we can work together to get this resolved.
Thank you,

Individual contact ringtones quit working

Has anyone had an issue with ringtones assigned to a contact stop working?

@hobergmo
I understand the importance of being able to recognize certain callers by the ringtone you've assigned! And it appears you have figured out the solution to your problem. Please let us know how that worked out for you. Thanks!

How do I assign a contact ringtone to my fascinate phone?

I have looked all over this website and still can't find how to assign contact ringtones. Does anyone know out there?

There are a few ways to assign a ringtone. Here is one way. It may not be the easiest, but it works for me.
Setting a ringtone on the Fascinate is not as straight forward as it should be. Try this:
-Go into your contacts and select a contact.
-Hit your menu button. Select Edit.
-Up top, make sure you select "Phone" and not "Google."
-Scroll down and you will see "Ringtone."
-Hit the Arrow Key. You will be asked whether you want the default ringtone or phone ringtone.
-Select Phone Ringtone.
-Select the Ringtone you want and select Okay.
-Save your entry.
That should set your ringtone for each contact. Now, how do you get a ringtone you downloaded from an app into the list of "Phone Ringtones" in which to select from? For me, I have an app that I download ringtones from. So any song that I have downloaded has ended up saved to my sd card (go to Apps and select "My Files.") in that apps' file. Find where your ringtones have been saved on your sd card. For me, the app that I downloaded has its own file folder on the SD card. Go to each ringtone in that file and do the following:
-Long press on a ringtone. Select "Copy." You will be returned back to the list of your files.
-Select the "Media" file.
-Select "Audio."
-Select either "Ringtones" (if you want a ringtone for calls) or "Notifications" (if you want a ringtone for a text message, voicemail, etc.).
-Paste your ringtone into the selected folder.
-Repeat as needed.
After you do this, then you can go into your individual contacts as noted above and select your ringtones for each contact instead of having to use the default ones that came with your phone. Hope this helps!

Asha 501 - Can't set individual contact ring tone ...

I cannot see any profiles in my asha 501. I need to manually adjust every time the settings, I can only see the silent option beside the mobile data pack.
Also, can't set indiviual contact ringtone, not sure if other phones in asha series support this
Solved!
Go to Solution.

@vsai :
I think you don't check the settings.
The option to set individual ringtone is possible in asha 501. Its an asha but can do MORE.
Go to a contact open it,swipe from down tap on edit and now again swipe from down and tap on ADD DETAILS and there u find a RINGTONE option select on that and choose your favourite one.

Contact ringtone defaults

every time i "fetch" or "push" to sync with my other macs the iphone ringtones i have previously set for individual contacts reverts back to the default ringtone for all contacts. Anyone having same problem or knows how to fix.

same thing here !
I thought I didn't do it after upgrading to firmware 2 buth then it keeps losing the ringtones again and again !
please Apple do something so the pushed contacts keep their ringtones !
even better, let us assign a ringtone from Address book on the mac !

Mail-how to send to a list without entering ea as individual contact?

I sent email reminders monthly to a group of about 20 email addresses. I don't even know most of the people & there are changes each month with additions & deletions. In Eudora on my old Dell I just had a contact with the whole list in it. Then when i got the MacBookPro I was syncing to a windows mobile phone for biz so I synced to Outlook. Outlook woudln't let me have a group contact but I finally figured i could but the list in the bcc field. Then each month I just opened the previous month's email & said to send again & edited it.
I finally got my emails imported from both Eudora & Outlook to mail. But I find that I can't even see the contents of the bcc field from the mo before--its blank.
OK, I thought I could copy the list & then paste it in each time. I have the list with the name of the person followed by their email address. I had originally entered it by putting brackets around the email addresses. But in the list the email addresses are showing as a link. OK. But I tried copying it into both Note & also tried Pages & then tried copying from there into Mail.
In both Note & Pages the email addresses show as a link, but when I paste the list into the bcc field of a Mail email it just shows them with a space between the name & the email address with the email address not being set apart.
This is getting more & more complicated--what was easy in the Free Sponsored Eudora, & not too bad in Outlook. But right now after trying what worked before, it doesn't look like any of the solutions are going to work.
If I could copy them in from a list & paste them in, I could live with that, but it doesn't look like that is going to work at all since in the other programs they are links which seem to be lost when pasted into Mail.
I also tried pasting the list into the body of an email & from there to the bcc field but again, it seemed lose its formatting so that it recognized the email addresses.
Any suggestions on how to have a group list that I can send without them all displaying to everyone & use mo after mo?
OK, I just tried retyping a couple of the names with brackets around the email address in Pages & copying it into the bcc field & it looked like it worked. I guess that might work. But is there are way to convert the links in pages to I guess it would be html with the brackets around?
Or any other suggestions?
Mail 4,5

The issue is that, as I said in my original post, I'm trying to figure out how to do it without setting up each of the people in addressbook. A couple of them I know & they are in Addressbook. Most of them I don't know & don't really want to have to set each 1 up individually. I read something about that I could enter all the contacts in a field & the little blue bubble around the contact nickname would appear, but so far it isn't working with pasting the list in. For practically all of the contacts, I have the name then the email address for example: John Smith [email protected] On the list, the emails show as links in Pages or in Note, but when I paste them into the to or bcc field, the link appears to disappear.
So I need some way to set up a group of email addresses as a contact without setting them up individually in Addressbook.
I'm frustrated since this was so simple to do in Eudora (which I don't have on my Mac--was using it in Windows before coming back to mac.) Again, I don't want to set them all up as individual contacts to clutter up my addressbook since I don't even know many of them.
btw, tried to respond sooner but in the middle of it they were updating this part of the site so I couldn't. Then had the S California power failure here yesterday so not internet.

How do I sync individual contacts with Facebook?

On iOs6, on the iPhone 5, how does one sync individual contacts with Facebook? I don't wish to use the sync all contacts feature, as it adds thousands of Facebook friends to my contact list. I simply wish to connect the contacts already in my address book.

I realize this is really old, but on the off chance of you never having found a way, I figured I'd pop in with something actually useful unlike this Raz fella.
I couldn't figure out a way to do it without connecting to facebook at all, but here is what I did:
1. Connect to facebook.
2. Update contacts.
3. Click groups and uncheck facebook contacts.
Now contacts which are only on the phone because of facebook will not show up, and yet the others will have been connected.
If a specific person does not connect properly to facebook, add their FACEBOOK EMAIL (found in their about section) to the email section of contacts and again go to the facebook settings and click update contacts. This should connect that person.

Can't drag and drop individual contact into group?

I upgraded from SL to Lion. In the address books, I still have the individual contacts as well as groups. However, when I add new individual contacts and then drag them into a pre-existing group, it doesn't work. In fact, I can't figure out how to add new contacts to the groups. When I try to great a new group, it gives it the name "untitled" and I can't figure out how to change it or delete it (the delete option is greyed out in the edit menu).
Can anyone help?
Also, is there a way of restoring the three pane view instead of the present two pane view?
Thanks!

I need an answer to this, too! There seems to be no way to move contacts around unless you start new groups!
HELP! I'm beginning to be sorry I switched to Lion...

How do you edit the "group" in the individual contact?

By syncing my contacts with Google, I have my contacts all organized by groups.
But I can't seem to change the group of an individual contact from within the contact app.
Am I missing something?

Nothing
I don't believe you can edit Google groups from the iPhone.
without going to the google contacts through a browser.
iCloud contacts groups,
Go to iCloud.com
does the iPhone recognize the groups as "google" groups? When you go into the Contact app, you see the groups, but nothing there says a particular group is a "google" group or "iCloud" group.

Change first name/last name convention for individual contacts

Hello. First off, I'm aware of how to set the convention globally under System Preferences. However, what I'm looking for is the ability to set this for individual contacts. This is an issue, because not everybody has an English name, but for those that do, firstname/lastname works better than lastname/firstname -- the reverse is true for those without one.
Basically I just need a way to change this setting for individual contacts. Is there a way?

There's no way to edit the setting individually. However, there's nothing to prevent you from putting a first name in the last name field or vice versa if it suits your needs better.

How to delete individual contacts on iphone 6

I just got a new iphone 6 with the lastest update. There are all kinds of contacts on there that I am not familiar with. How do I delete them? I looked under the individual contacts using edit. There used to be a great big red Delete Contact button, but not anymore. Can anyone tell me how to delete these? Thank you for your time.

Put your finger to the right and slide to the left and a red "delete" options should appear. Before doing this, make sure that you don't share iCloud account with another family member or so since this may cause issues for them since the contacts will be deleted for them as well.

Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button.

Is anyone else having problems saving contact ringtones? I tried changing it and it keeps stay as default.

Motoblur: On Motorola’s phones, like Samsung’s, there’s an easy way to ensure that new contacts are always saved to Google. When you go into the Contacts application, go to Menu -> More-> Settings then Choose Contact Storage-> and it'll provide you with your various options to save the contacts to, Google being one of them. Give this a Try..

Can anyone help?   How do I get rid of these contacts so I can re-synch my iPhone.

I have exactly the same problem on my ipad. It is happening on only some contacts but, as with you, when I delete one of the contacts on the ipad, the second ipad contact and the contact on the imac are also deleted. This is even the case when I have differentiated the two contacts on the ipad and can see the one I have deleted on the ipad is not the same one as is then deleted on the imac.
