Itunes won't recognise my ringtones ?

Hi Can anyone help please ?
When I drag ringtones into itunes, they just don't seemt o be recognised.
I have the ringtones pane showing in my library.
Ringtones are .m4r and I have checked the length - they are 20 seconds long.
In fact, I bought some ringtones from itunes itself . . I then founf out they had to be converted, which I have done according to various tutorials.
When I drag the ringtones into itues, they just don't appear at all in the whole library ?
Hope someone can guide me !
thanks
Sean

Have you tried to put your iPod into disk mode and do a restore ?

  • I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there.  I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working.  Please help.

    I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there.  I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working.  Please help.

    I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version.  I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again.  I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again.  My blue tooth doesn't work either.  I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this.  When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue.  My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!!  I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue.  Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it.  Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
    June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple.

  • I upgraded my ipad 2 on apple's advice now can't do the back-up on my now-empty ipad! itunes won't recognise my password! help help

    I just upgraded my ipad 2 on apple's advice now can't do the back-up on my now-empty ipad! itunes won't recognise my password! help help

    Just for information in case helps anyone else, I have now accessed the back-up, I tried a different password from memory but it is not the normal iTunes password I use - which is what you'd expect them to be after. Now I don't know how to get the app collection back onto the screen, they aren't opening. Wish I never had upgraded...

  • Itunes won't recognise Ipod touch 5G

    So this is for my friend who has a 5G, but her Itunes won't recognise the ipod touch 5G, but windows can recognise it, Itunes says to reset the Ipod touch, and she has done this before, and now again it won't recognise it, so she has to reset it, and this is quite annoying her, as resetting takes a long time. my friend had a 4G before, and had no problems with this, she sold the 4G to get the 5G. She has a window 7 laptop. I've tried several ways but it hasn't solved it.
    What can we do to solve it ?

  • Itunes won't recognise password

    I'm trying to de-authorize an older computer but itunes won't recognise my password... I know I'm using the correct one because 1 - i just re-set it and 2 I'm using it right now on my laptop to log in and post this question...
    The computer I'm trying to de-authorize is an old imac (the one with the movable screen) running osx 10.4.11...
    Any suggestions?

    Just dealt with this...I unplugged my ApTV and moved it to another television; this is why the trouble began.  The date and time wouldn't update, so hitting menu didn't help and home sharing wouldn't recognize our password.  Reset my password on iTunes -- everything else took it except for ApTV.  We reset ApTV a few times, same issue...
    We rebooted our router!  BINGO!
    Works perfectly again!
    Good luck but definately try rebooting your router first -- it will save you the frustration, believe me.
    Cheers!

  • Itunes won't recognise library

    Itunes won't recognise my library even though I have taken the newer update off and reinstalled an older one. Is there a workaround so that I can get it to recognise all of my music even if it means changing the suffix to each music file?

    Hello there dog lover,
    I have a recommendation for the issue you are experiencing. It sounds like it may be a good idea to recreate the iTunes library. This article will assist with that process:
    iTunes: How to re-create your iTunes library and playlists
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451.
    Re-creating the iTunes Library file
    Note: After re-creating your library, any devices that you sync with iTunes (Apple TV, iPod, iPhone, iPad) will see your iTunes library as a new library and will completely resync. The next sync with such a device will take longer and may reset some options since your rebuilt library isn't familiar to the device.
    1. Quit iTunes.
    2. Locate your iTunes folder (this is the folder that contains the iTunes Library and iTunes Library.xml files).
    Operating System
    Default location of iTunes Folder
    Mac OS X
    /Users/[your username]/Music
    Microsoft Windows XP
    \Documents and Settings\[your username]\My Documents\My Music\
    Microsoft Windows Vista
    \Users\[your username]\Music\
    Microsoft Windows 7
    \Users\[your username]\My Music\
    3. Open your iTunes folder.
    4. Drag the "iTunes Library.xml" or "iTunes Music Library.xml" file to the Desktop. If neither is available, learn how to add files back to the Library (because the XML file is not available, playlists and other information will not be available).
    5. Drag the following file from your iTunes folder to the Trash:
    Mac OS X
    "iTunes Library" or "iTunes Library.itl"
    Microsoft Windows
    "iTunes Library.itl"
    6. Open iTunes.
    Important: Do not add any content into iTunes at this point (such as by purchasing something from the iTunes Store).
    7. Choose File > Library > Import Playlist.
    8. Navigate to the "iTunes Library.xml" file on the Desktop.
    Mac users: Click Choose.
    Windows users: Click Open.
    If your Podcasts list in iTunes is empty after following these steps, learn how to add them back into iTunes.
    Regards,
    Sterling

  • Every time i try to sync my 4th gen ipod touch itunes won't recognise it and the ipod keeps beeping - is there anything I can do?

    This is really frustrating.  Every time i try to sync my 4th gen ipod touch itunes won't recognise it and the ipod keeps beeping - is there anything I can do? I've tried using different cables. Itunes works fine with my family members ipod's & iphones...

     The best way to manage your music when you have multiple iPods is to change the settings under "Options" so that you manually manage your music instead of it doing an automatic synch each time you connect.  To add only the songs you want, highlight them and then "click and drag" them to your iPod.  This way none of your daughter's music gets added and you're not in danger of deleting your playlist as well.  It will show you how many songs you've added and you can then click on your iPod to verify.  To delete her songs off your iPod now, click on the music tab under your iPod so show everything you have stored.  Find those songs you want to delete, click on them to highlight then go up to the Edit window and click delete. This will erase them off your iPod but be careful when you highlight.  I did that and then had to reload a cd on my boyfriend's, lol. hope this helps

  • ITunes won't recognise my iPad since the latest update.

    iTunes won't recognise my iPad since the latest update. I have tried the solution on http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538, twice over but with no result.
    I have repaired each of the iTunes elements and restarted both the computer and the iPad several times.
    I have Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit operating system.
    Processor: Intel (R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz 2.40 GHz
    iOS 8.0.2 iPad 64GB

    Hi Skydiver119
    Thanks for your reply. That was what the solution I found on that link I posted, except it said to include the 'Bonjour' too. I've uninstalled everything, downloaded the latest iTunes, reinstalled and restarted the computer twice, but it still won't recognise the iPad. I've also rebooted the iPad each time.
    Any other ideas on what might work?
    Thanks in advance

  • ITunes won't recognise iPhone 3GS (Vista 32bit)

    Hi.
    I brought a 32gb iphone 3 days ago from the carphonewarehouse and the guy said in the store O2 will activate the phone within the next 24hours. Fine.
    Waited 24 hours then tried to sync the iphone to my windows vista Pc with itunes all loaded up, but itunes wouldn't recognise the iphone at all.I have spoken to o2 4 times and apple tech twice for 2hours each, doing complete removal of all apple/itunes related stuff then reinstalled itunes. I did this 3 complete times, and still itunes won't recognise the iphone even with the lastest itunes.
    If i go onto My Computer the actual PC itself picks it up but itunes won't.
    I ran a diagnostics test on itunes to find that under Ports:it says "NO iPhone or iPod found"
    The next test :iPhone/iPod Touch sync tests
    Results: No iPhone/iPod Touch found?
    ALL the other diagnostic tests i did showed all GREEN just these two are RED,which i am now?
    So yesterday mum and I decided to try and download itunes on my mums work laptop as a last resort since it won't work on my Desktop Pc.
    Downloaded the lastest iTunes from apple then synced the iphone, IT picked it up instantly (at this time the iphone haden't been activated but it has now thanks to my mums laptop.)I just ran through the procedures then, tried to sync it to my Desktop Pc. I had no luck. Same again itunes carn't recognise it at all. I need to get it synced to my desktop PC becuase i have over 1000 songs and over 20 movies on my itunes.
    I just don't know what to do, would appreciate some insight :confused:
    Thanks.

    Greetings,
    Make sure to run the Apple Update routine on the PeeCee - the PeeCee can be such a royal pain, and even though you aren't required to reboot, I would, as Winblows doesn't pick up on updates as it should.
    The next trick would be to reinstall iTunes.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • ITunes won't recognise my Internet connection

    iTunes refuses to recognise my internet connection so won't let me download the latest Ipod updater.
    I have run the diagnostics and it says to enable a network connection through "My Computer" but these are already enabled.
    Any ideas?

    I tried signing in on another account and I was able to restore my iPod. But now it keeps saying that iTunes is detecting an iPod in recovery mode, and that I need to restore it. ? I just did! It's an endless cycle.
    Now my iPod won't even take me to the main screen. It just says "OK to disconnect" and "Do not disconnect"

  • WIndows/iTunes won't recognise iPod

    I connected my 30Gb iPod one day, added some songs, disconnected it properly, listened to my iPod, then came back to connect it to the computer. I waited for a while to see why the "Do Not Disconnect" message hadn't appeared. Instead just the "charging" icon appeared and neither iTunes nor Windows recognised my iPod.
    I would restore it, but i don't know how without iTunes, and I would rather leave that as a last resort as i have a lot of data on their that I don't have backed up on the computer.
    Is there anyway to get my computer to recognise the iPod?

    First of all, try another port on your computer. Some ports are not connected direct to the motherboard and do not recognize the iPod as well as those that are. Reset the iPod each time you connect it to another port.
    Then try with the iPod in forced disk mode.

  • ITunes won't recognise my iPod on USB 2.0, only 1.1

    my computer won't recognise my iPod touch 1.1.4 when it is connected via my USB 2.0 PCI card, only when it is plugged in via the motherboards inbuilt USB 1.1 ports. I have plugged it into other computers (all pc's) and it works fine on their USB 2.0 ports.
    What could be causing this?
    cheers.

    Try this if you have not already. This removes and reinstalls ALL Apple software and sometimes that is required.
