IPhone doesn't see ringtone from ITunes

I recently created a ringtone using a song from Itunes.  I changed the format to the proper one, and I see it in the Tones file when I plug my phone in since I've synched, but it does not show up on the list on tones to choose from under "Sounds" on the Iphone.

where does it say this?
It doesn't say this anywhere, same way it doesn't mention how it can't make toast. Apple doesn't list features the product doesn't have. It just doesn't do it.
and why???
To prevent music piracy.

  • Iphone doesn't see albums from the cloud

    My iPhone 5s doesn't show all of my albums after I update iTunes Match. I can see them on my wife's 5s but not mine. I tried turning match off on my phone and then back on again but still no joy.
    Anyone else experience this please?

    Check System Preferences/App Store to make sure it is set to check for updates automatically.

    Where don't you see the Photo Stream? On your iPhone/iPad or in iPhoto on your Mac?
    In iPhoto on your Mac check, if Photo Stream is still enabled on System Preferences > iCloud and in the iPhoto Preferences "iCloud" tab.

  • I bought a ringtone from itunes on my iphone 6 plus. But it doesn't show up my phone or my PC.

    I bought a ringtone from itunes on my iphone 6 plus. But it doesn't show up my phone or my PC. I did realize later that my credit card info was old when I bought it and updated it. Today, I a got an email saying I purchased it, but the ringtone still doesn't show up on my phone or the PC. What should I do?

    Connect your iPhone to computer iTunes
    Use iTunes menu File > Devices > Transfer Purchases from ....

  • How do I get ringtone from iTunes to iPhone?

    I bought a ringtone from iTunes, but it downloaded itself to 'Music' folder instead of the 'Tones' folder. I can sync it to my iPhone (in the music folder) but cannot select it as a ringtone. Bizarre!
    In addition, the inflexibility of iTunes means that I cannot simply drag and drop the ringtone to the tones folder in iTunes on my mac prior to sync. No idea why?
    Can anyone help? In short, how do I get my iTunes purchased ring tone in to the ringtones folder on my iPhone. Surely it cannot be so unecessarily complicated ...?
    Thanks.

    You probably purchased a song that was designed to be converted to a ringtone.  To confirm this, right-click on the file in iTunes, select "Get Info", then verify on the Summary tab that ie says "Kind:Ringtone".  If it doesn't, you must frst convert it to a ringtone, then import the converted file into the Tones folder of your iTunes library in order to sync it to your phone.  This video will show you how to do this: http://cnettv.cnet.com/create-free-ringtones-itunes-10/9742-1_53-50093086.html.  (If you're using iTunes 11, first go to View>Show Sidebar in order to follow along with the video.)

  • HT1751 Few days back i bought 8 ringtones from my iphone application for itunes and when yesterday I sync it with itunes all my ringtones washed off. I tried to again download the same ringtones from itunes then it again asked for payment. Why?

    Few days back i bought 8 ringtones from my iphone application for itunes and when yesterday I sync it with itunes all my ringtones washed off. I tried to again download the same ringtones from itunes then it again asked for payment. Why?

    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • I downloaded a ringtone from Itunes and apple owned company to my Iphone4 and then followed all the instructions sent to itunes on pc and synced back to iphone still got squat. Why does apple need to be so hard for something so simple.

    I downloaded a ringtone from itunes (an apple company) to my iphone4 (an Apple product). Followed all the instructions from "Help" boards, sent to itunes on my pc converted to m4r synced back to iphone and still got squat. I thought iphones and apple were supposed to be so user friendly? Any other phone you download a ringtone click on it "use as ringtone" and your done.

    Frank, thanks for your note.  I wrote "COMPLETED" because I had gone to a lot of effort to get the content of the book precisely as I wanted it. I would fully expect to see my level of effort and care matched by functional competence in Aperture 3 to render the book the way I created it.  Too much to ask?
    And yes, I upgraded the Aperture 2 Library first.  [Not ALL my tens of 000s of pix, because I use Lightroom selectively for photo editing. But Yes to the Aperture 2 Library.]  That step took a number of minutes, but seemed to work fine (no error messages of any kind).
    Then I opened the existing book project in Aperture 3, which followed some "magic-box" process that took a minute or so.  As I said, when that step was done, by all appearances the book was ready to submit for printing - until I examined the photos a little more closely.  You did see the blurry example I included, didn't you? That is what each and every photo looks like.
    Text-box content appears to have been rendered pertectly, for the record (including captions).
    So, ... is this result something you have heard of before?  Do you know of a one-step solution?  Or am I looking at an extended picture-by-picture fix?

  • I downloaded Ringtone from iTunes into my iPhone 6 and set it as the default Ringtone. Worked well until I had to recharge my phone. Now disappearred from my iPhone but shows in Tones when phone sync'd. How do I get to show back as default Ringtone

    I downloaded a Ringtone from iTunes into my iPhone 6 and set it as the default Ringtone.Worked well until I had to recharge my phone.The Ringtone has now disappeared from my iPhone and I'm left with just the Ringtones that come standard with iPhone 6. I sync'd my phone and it shows in the Tones folder. How do I get the Ringtone back as a default Ringtone in my iPhone 6. Quite frustrating!!

    In iTunes, try signing out of your Apple ID & then back in: click on iTunes Store on the left sidebar of iTunes, click on your Apple ID on the top right, sign out, sign back in.  Then try to sync your purchased music to your phone again.

  • Can't drag and drop apps and ringtones from itunes into the iphone.

    I'm sure it's something that I have to enable in itunes or the iphone, but I can't seem to drag and drop my apps or ringtones from itunes. This started when I got a replacement phone from my provider. I can't transfer them on my itunes. I get a block icon when I try to drag and drop. So the only way to get all the apps back is by re-downloading on the phone itself, but some apps are huge and I wouldn't want to do that. All the apps I backed up and even new ones I purchased can't seem to transfer. I tried deauthorizing and authorizing, re-downloading apps, syncing. So far nothing. Any tips?

    Thanks for trying but your answer is incorrect, according to an email I received today from HP Connected:
    "I have reviewed your email. I understand that you have questions related to rearranging the order of the apps on the printer. I know this can be frustrating, and I want you to know you're certainly valuable to us and I want to do everything possible to ensure your complete satisfaction. The following information should provide the answers you need:
    1) Unfortunately when HP launched the new website (www.hpconnected.com) they did not include a method of rearranging the apps on the printer. They may include this feature in a future update, however as this time it is not available.
    2) If you have made the upgrade from eprintcenter to HP Connected you do not have the option of returning. Eprintcenter is in the process of being eliminated and unfortunately retuning to the old site is not possible."
    I hope <<S-O-O-N>> HP fixes this new website -- it's crazy to take away any controls like this from their customers and not either embellish them or at least leave them be.
    I may take this 7610 OJ back for a new Brother 11x17 all-in-one --- they look nice )

  • I bought a ringtone from Itunes, after I synched my Iphone 4, the ringtone is gone - why?

    Does anyone know how to retrieve a purchased ringtone from Itunes?
    I bought one last week, and after I synched my Iphone 4 my purchased ringtone is gone. I have the Itunes receipt, but keep getting caught in a big loop when I try to report a problem. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
    Carter

    I am having the same problem. I downloaded it from my 4S and my ITunes account shows it was downloaded. It's not listed in the ringtones on my 4S. When I open ITunes, and plug in my 4S, I can look at the media on my device. There is a checkmark next to it and a circle to the far left, but it is not on my phone. This has not happened before. Hopefully there will be an answer soon.

  • Ive purchased ringtones from itunes.  They were assigned to contacts.  I did the latest update and now now of them are in the list of ringtones.  I've synced twice and they are not on my iphone.  Does anyone know how to find them?

    Ive purchased ringtones from Itunes.  They were working before I did the recent update.  I cannot find them on the iPhone and they are no longer assigned - I had five. I have synced several times and does anyone know where they are or how to assign them again?

    On your iPhone tap Settings > Store
    Make sure Music is switched on.
    Now reset your iPhone.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
