IPhone 4: Setting different ringtones for contacts not working.

I can't add personal ringtones for each contact. I have followed all contact editing info to the letter, yet I still only get the same one ringtone for each contact (the default ringtone I set for the phone). Setting different ringtones for text messages works fine, but not for telephone contacts. Is this feature broken? Is anyone else having this issue? Thanks.

It happened to me also when I first added specific ringtones to contacts, but just turning the phone off/on fixed it for me. You can try a reset also if that doesn't work (hold down the home and sleep/wake buttons at the same time until the Apple logo comes up)

  • Set different ringtone for different group of people

    I can not set different ringtomes within iphone 4s for different group people in order to know the different rigntone from which group of people.

    You can't and need to assign the ringtones to your contacts on by one.

  • Assigned ringers for contacts not working

    Within the last few days my assigned ringers are all defaulting to the default ringer.
    I am still using the previous operating system - did not do the upgrade.
    In the past, I have had assigned ringers get switched back to the default setting but that is not the case this time around. All the assigned ringers are still set to the appropriate contacts.
    I have tried shutting the phone completely off but it did not fix the issue.

    Any thoughts??

  • Setting different vibrations for contacts is not working in iOS 7. Thoughts?

    Setting a different vibration alert for a variety of contacts "appears" to be working; the settings are accepted and visible, however, when an incoming text arrives, they all vibe the same - not differentiated. <shrug>.  Using iphone 4S / iOS7

    Works fine for me on my iPad and iPhone.
    Did you turn it on on the iPad?

  • E61 voice command for contacts not working

    I have not been able to get the voice command function on the E61 to work when trying to call contacts.
    I can get it to go to the contacts application by speaking the word "Contacts", but nothing else.
    Any idea?

    It doesn't work on my E61 either. The hit rate I have so far is Zero. Not to mentioned I have a few person call John Smith (e.g.)

  • Different ringtone for each contact

    Is it possible to set a different ringtone for each person or at least each person on your Buddy List?

    I bet all your contacts are Google/Gmail imported right? I had the same problems when I got the phone. I used to have a Droid so when I switched over my contacts where synced through Gmail....and thats where the problem is at...and here's the bad news: you can assigned different ringtones to your contacts but they have to be IN PHONE CONTACTS...meaning that they must be saved directly into the phone(the old fashion way) not sync'd from another source. To prove my point try this: open up your contacts and click "add new" fill in the usual info but after you enter in the phone number dont hit save but keep scrolling down and guess what you'll see......yep, "ringtone" Weird but thats just how this phone is. After finding this out I had to stop gmail from sync'ing my contacts, wrote down all my contacts, erased the contacts that were on the phone, and began the long process of typing in all my contacts into the phone. have fun....

  • Pixi able to have different ringtones for different callers??

    So after about 4 years I finally had to get rid of my trusty Treo 650.  I went with the Pixi and just got it a few hours ago.  So far I like the phone, but have not been able to figure out how to set up different ringtones for different callers.  I am on call with my work and having a distinct ringtone for when work calls me is super important (they showed up as NO CALLER ID on the 650 if that helps figure this out) .  Also it was nice having a few other distinct ringtones so I knew right away who was calling and made it easier to decide if I wanted to take the phone out of my pocket to talk to them.  So I guess long story short:
    1.  Does the Pixi support distinct ringtones for different callers?
    2.  If so where do I set that up?
    3.  If not does anyone have any idea if this will be something that can/will be addressed in an upcoming software update?
    Post relates to: Pixi p120eww (Sprint)

    So after playing with my phone some more I figured out how to give contacts distinct ringtones...but I still havne't figured out how to give "uknown callers" (at least thats what the Treo 650 called them) a distinct ringtone.  This ringtone is the most important one due to the fact that when work calls me they come up as "NO CALLER ID" (once again thats what the Treo 650 did, been lucky enough to have not been called out in the few hours since I bought the Pixi....yet). 
     Anyone have any idea how to set up a distinct ringtone for "uknown callers" in the Pixi??

  • After ios7 upgrade, I cannot select different ringtone for different phone #

    I had set up different ringtones for specific phone numbers but after ios7 upgrade, all the phone numbers ring with the default ringtone. The ringtones are still individually assigned correctly when I look in the addresses book. I have even tried changing an assigned ring tone to something else & heard the new ring tone when it was selected, but when the number was called, I just got the default ringtone.
    Any ideas or solutions?

    Hello ccrjon,
    Thank you for providing so much detail about the issue you are experiencing with Messages after upgrading to iOS 7.
    The first thing I recommend is quitting and relaunching the applications on your iPhone:
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    You can find the full article here:

    If you are still seeing the same issue after quitting and relaunching the Messages app, I recommend restarting your phone and then resetting if it's still not working:
    Restarting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    If the issue persists, the last thing I recommend is backing up and restoring your iPhone:

  • How Can I set Specific RingTone for one person and general ringtone for all?

    Hello All,
    I have a problem with ringtone. I want to set specific ringtone for manager in my 99 series ip phone. Customer needs to know when manager calls him, that is why he told me that he wants to set specific ringtone for Manager.
    Thanks a lot
    Bahlul

    Hi Bahlul,
    I don't see such a feature on CUCM where you can have a separate ringtone for a Directory number based on the calling party number. Even to have separate ringtones for different lines on the same IP phone you need to play with Distinctiveringlist.xml , but that too does not fit your requirement as it will always be the same ringtone for all the calls on that line. You may probably get this feature through some third party solution but i am not sure if it would be worth it for applying it on one phone only.

  • Is there a way to set different volumes for Alerts, phone ringing

    I would like to be able to set different volumes for Alerts, Phone ringing, and incomming mail.  Is this possible?

    No, not at this time. The alerts and phone ringing are all the same. You can provide feedback to Apple if you would like to let them know you would like to see this feature implemented by going to http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

  • Selecting different ringtone for in holster in OS v5.0 for BlackBerry 8520

    Updated yesterday to OS v5.0.
    Previously in v4.7 it was possible to select a different ringtone for when the phone was out the holster and a different one for when in the Holster.
    I cannot do that now with v5.0.  All that I can now do is turn the ringtone off or on when  in the holster but not select a different ringtone.
    Is there any way of doing this like in v4.7?
    THanks.

    That should have done it. Try the instructions below:
    You want to download this file:
    File name: 8520wifijEastAsia_PBr5.0.0_rel860_PL5.2.0.47_A5.0.0.509_Globe_Telecom__Inc.exe
    Do a backup of your device first, using Desktop Manager > Backup. Close Desktop Manager upon completion.
    1. Download the OS file to the PC then install it to the PC by running (double clicking) the file you downloaded.
    2. Go to c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."
    3. Plug in BB and double click on "Loader.exe." It's located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.

  • How to create a Platinum,Gold and Silver Customer and how to set different price for a single material based on customer?

    Hi All,
    How to create a Platinum,Gold and Silver Customer and how to set different price for a single material based on customer?
    Assume Material is Pen.
    While creating Sales Order in VA01 how to bring different price for the same material for Platinum,Gold and Silver Customers.
    Kindly help me out.
    Thanks,
    Renjith Jose

    A good place to start is http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/javatips/jw-javatip34.html
    Also, do a search in this forum on HttpURLConnection. That class allows you to use POST method to send form data to a web server.
    "Hidden" variables are only hidden in HTML. The HTTP that gets POSTed to the web server doesn't distinguish between hidden and not hidden. That is, the content you would write to the HttpURLConnection.getOutputStream() would be something like:
    hidden=1&submit=ok(Of course, the variable names would depend on what the web server was expecting from the form.)
    Also, be sure to set the Content-Type request parameter to "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"

  • I bought my iphone 4 through ebay and its unlocked. the problem is that my phone does not sync straight away. I sync my music file through autofill. I want to sync ringtones but its not working

    i bought my iphone 4 through ebay and its unlocked. the problem is that my phone does not sync straight away. I sync my music file through autofill. I want to sync ringtones but its not working.
    I saw cidya aap so i m not sure if it was jailbroken or not before but it is back to normal settings.
    My problem started when I tried to sync my music files. I pressed 'sync' all it says is waiting for sync start, preparing to sync and then waiting for the changes to be applied. but it does not sync at all.
    I found a way to sync my music files through autofill but I really wanted to sync ringtones but its not syncing and I really wanted to put ringtones in my phone please help.

    If you see the cidya app, your iPhone is hacked with the cutsie term for this being jailbroken. This also means all the built in security has been removed making the iPhone as insecure as an android device.
    Restore the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup to get rid of that hacking garbage. If the iPhone has hacked to be unlocked, the iPhone will no longer be unlocked when doing so.
