My ringtones were not restored after the 8.1.2 upgrade and the various fixes...

I updated to 8.1.2 this weekend from a flavor of iOS 7 on my iPhone 5S.  I knew about the bug regarding ringtones and followed the steps to restore the tones.  First through iTunes directly with the phone plugged into the computer.  No luck.  Then I used the itunes.com/restore-tones advice that has been floating through these forums.  It showed the tones being downloaded, but I still do not see them as an option on my phone. At this point I have exactly one purchased ringtone installed on the phone, and it was a ringtone that I did not survive the move from my iPhone 4 (it was one I really didn't care about at the time).
So:
I'm using an iPhone 5S
I have the latest version of iTunes loaded on the computer
I have tried both fix actions to restore the tones
I still do not have access to my purchased tones on the phone
I have done a hard reboot of the phone
Do I restore the phone from the last backup (prior to my update) or is there a different fix action I can take?

No.  That did not work either.  What finally worked is the following:
- Attached phone to computer
- Deleted all ringtones that were on the phone
-- iTunes reported they were there, they did not show up in the pick list
- Added them one at a time
All are now present and accounted for.  Hope this helps somebody else.

  • I just upgraded my 3gs to latest iOS, all of my purchased and free apps were not restored after doing backup prior to upgrade

    Note: before upgrading i ctrl clicked on my device on my macbook pro (itunes acct) and backed up my 3gs and then did the upgeade to latest ios.
    When completed my apps failed to re-appear on my phone.
    a. I did a resore from back up > still apps are not on iphone
    b. Apps are on my itunes.
    c. How do i get them back on my Iphone?
    thanks in advance

    All applications are backed up in the iTunes ...laptop , Mac etc. contacts are better backed up to the iCloud account using your apple store account .
    Contect your iPhone to iTunes using MacBook or laptop which has internet connection ; most importantly to the one you backed up.
    Once your iPhone appears in the iTunes , go the applications . This will display all your purchased apps . Choose to apply and synchronize

  • Firefox has suddenly gone wrong. I was successfully running both Firefox and Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7. I auto-accept upgrades including the most recent Firefox upgrade and the suggested upgrade to Adobe Flash 10.1. But after this, Firefox stopped

    Firefox has suddenly gone wrong. I was successfully running both Firefox and Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7. My laptop is new and has plenty of RAM and HDD. I auto-accept upgrades including the most recent Firefox upgrade and the suggested upgrade to Adobe Flash 10.1. But after this, Firefox stopped working and does not work when I re-load Firefox 3.6. Also IE8 now works very slowly and does not locate major websites like Microsoft without a 'can't find the website message' and having to pressing Return a second time. When I do get to the Mozilla website and click on the button to try to download Firefox 3.6.6, I get this message "Oops! Internet Explorer could not find mozilla3.snt.utwente.nl". Can you help with what has gone wrong? As it stands, I can't use Firefox at all. Note: because Firefox did not work after the upgrade, I've downloaded the IE8 version of the Adobe Flash 10.1. What I really want is to be able to use both Firefox and IE8. But is this possible if they use different versions of Adobe Flash?

    I have been having the same problem as the original poster. After upgrading to Ffx 3.6.6, the program asks you to upgrade to Flash Player Plugin 10.1. I download and installed 10.1 only to find videos weren't loading.
    In my case, the problem is the previous installation of Flash Player (9.0.47) was somehow messing things up. To fix this, because I already had Flash plugin 10.1 installed I had to uninstall 10.1 using the uninstaller from adobe and then manually remove any files related the old flash player plugin 9.0.47
    Here is a run-down of my process:
    0. To check if you have a previous installation of the Flash Plugin lurking around, in Firefox go to Tools -> Add-ons -> Plugins (tab). At this point you may seen both Flash plugins.
    1. Proceed to uninstall Flash Plugin 10.1. Adobe provides an uninstaller here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    ( you have to make sure you have nothing running when you execute the installer).
    2. On my Mac (sorry I don't know what it is in Windows) I searched the hard drive for any files/folders with "Shockwave". I found a folder called "Shockwave 10". It wasn't removed by Adobe's uninstaller. For safety I deleted it and then emptied the trash.
    3. I then went to My HD -> Library -> Internet Plugins.
    Remove the file and folder named "Flash player.old"
    4. Restarted; ran the Adobe Flash Player 10.1 installer. Restarted again.
    5. Opened up ffx and double checked the plugins list (see step 1). Version 10.1 is installed and available. Went to problem sites to test it out and Success!
    Hope this helps.

  • Ringtones will not sync after Iphone 4 to 5 upgrade

    I just upgraded my Iphone 4 to a 5. Everything migrated fine except the ringtones. If I look in my Itunes in myTones folder the tones listed but they are not in the folder  but I have the tones in my Itunes library. Does this have to do with the file extension as I notice If I go to drag one of the tones from the music library to the tones folder in ITunes it does not allow me to .
    Any help here?

    Ann154, true!
    To the OP, I gave you your two options (not including paying full price) in my first post.  I'm sure that there are other creative options (ask for someone to buy it for you, wait and buy it on ebay), but these are too far out of the box to be realistic in the near future.

  • What Is The Legal Situation With Upgrades And The Original Copy Of FCE/FCP?

    Imagine you have an original copy of FCE/FCP.
    You buy an Upgrade and of course use your original serial number to make it work.
    You then register the new product with Apple.
    Can you then sell your original version and keep your legal entitlement to use the Upgrade?
    This question arises from an advert I have just seen on eBay where it looks as though the seller is doing precisely that (if you read their reasons for selling).
    Final Cut Suite
    Ian.

    Hi Ian,
    The answer is NO. It would not be legal for either the seller or the purchaser (assuming the seller purchased & applied an Upgrade to his original installation instead of purchasing a whole new copy with its own full license).
    In the packaged software world, when you purchase an Upgrade you are only purchasing a license to upgrade from a previously legally owned & installed copy of the software. When you enter the serial number of the previous copy you are identifying that copy. Regardless of whether or not Apple actually tracks the serial numbers, your upgrade license requires you to be the continuing owner of the original license in order for your upgrade license to be valid.
    Under the circumstances as they appear in this eBay transaction, the seller would legally lose both their original and upgrade licenses and the purchaser would be illegally installing a previously licensed software package.
    The only way to conduct a legal transfer of license would be to deinstall the original software before selling. Of course, that means you would no longer have the software to use yourself.

    Hello Satish
    Please do following checklist:
    1. Check that the J2EE engine is up and running (e.g. log in with Admin)
    2. Check that the following application is running:
         Visual Admin => Cluster => Server => Services => Deploy
         Select "Application" and look for "sap.com/tclmctcutilbasic_ear
    3. Try to continue installation
    It could be helpful to apply the patch for CTC as per note # 938261
    before restarting.
    and also try to add more memory allocation.
    If issue persists,
    - I'd like to know which installation DVD/CD number being using ?
    - The contents of the LABEL.ASC file.
    - The installation guide reference and title used for this install ?
    - SAPINST version ?
    - Oracle version/patch level ?
    - Operating system version/patch level ?
    See also:

  • My tabs are NOT restored after I reopen close and open firefox. I have tried all the suggested decisions- didn't work.

    My tabs are NOT restored after I reopen close and open firefox. I have tried the default page - on it I don't have "Restore Previous Session" button. I tried with the history menu - the "Restore Previous Session" option is not even available, like I never had previous session. I have tried to put my settings to always restore the tabs from the previous time- in fact, this option is on "Show my windows and tabs from last time" for a very long time now. Still don't work. Please, give me ideas, or even set up some time to chat live. Thank you all in advance.

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Safari Bookmarks were automatically restored after Disk Reformat and OS X Mountain Lion re-installation

    Hi to All,
    I was just wondering how my Safari Bookmarks were auto restored after I performed a Disk Erase/Reformat, and re-installed from scratch my OS X Mountain Lion. After my login into the new reformatted OS X Mountain Lion Disk, I noticed my old Bookmarks were there as before on the Safari Bookmarks Bar.
    I know this is not a priority support question But I was just wondering how this was done, so I may continue to learn about Mac OS X Mountain Lion and its features like Safari, iCloud, and so forth
    Thanks in advance for the feedback. Cheers!

    Thx! Linc Davis,
    I anticipated you will contribute to my question
    I know iCloud does it, but I was confused on whether iCloud does it automatically or if I did something to enable this feature. Would you please confirm?
    Thx & Cheers!

  • 2nd drive unformatted and not restored after attempting restore from a system image

    I created a system image, which included drive C (where Windows is installed) and drive G (where some installed Windows programs are located).  I then ran into a situation where I wanted to restore from the system image.  With my first attempt,
    this process took several days.  When I returned home from work, my computer had booted up into Windows -- drive C had successfully been restored.  I soon found out though that drive G was in an unformatted state.
    Now, given the time it took for each drive to restore and the sizes of data for each drive (160gb for C and 1000gb for G), it seemed odd to me that the entire process had completed already, given the time that had passed and the progress indicated for drive
    G in the status bar, in the morning before I went to work.  It is entirely possible that one of my cats may have jumped on my desk and somehow cancelled the operation.
    My questions are:
    1. if the restore is cancelled while the 2nd disk is being restored, will the 1st disk (C) still be successfully restored?
    2. why does this process take so long?
    3. if there is some other error, is it displayed?  Does system restore automatically reboot after completion/cancellation?  Is there an error file created somewhere if there was an error, or perhaps something mentioned in a log file?  If so,
    where?
    4. has anyone encountered a similar issue before and can provide any insight?
    5. anything else I'm missing?
    I'm attempting to restore a second time, and it is not even halfway through drive C, so it might not be until the end of the week before the entire process completes.  To be safe, especially from nosey cats, I disabled the mouse and keyboard so no input
    can interrupt and accidentally cancel the process.
    thanks,
    Chris

    Hi Chris,
    For the first problem, if the restore is cancelled while the 2nd disk is being restored, the 1st disk (C) can be successfully restored.
    For the second problem, I think it is normal to take a long time to finish the process, it is depend on the size of the date.
    For the third problem, you may check the setup log files to find the clue of the cause.

  • Why is my Apple ID working on the Apple Website on the computer but not restoring my ipad... What is the problem with it????

    Why is my Apple ID working on the Apple Website on the computer but not restoring my ipad... What is the problem with it????

    When fist setting up your new iphone you will be asked to log in with an apple id and password. If this did not happen you can then do as you suggested going to settings to itunes and app store and add your apple id login. This apple id login must have already been created for the iphone to accept it. If this apple id is already created but is not being accepted by your iphone you then should shut down your iphone and restart the device.
    Good luck.

    Restore it as a new device first, then try again. If it still won't work, you're hosed, unless you can get hold of the old device and try backing it up again.
