Purchased songs on iPhone with ringtone options, not showing up as so

I purchased some songs on iphone last night. This morning while looking at the same songs in the iTunes store these SAME songs from the SAME album show that there is an option to make them into ringtones. But when I synced the songs purchased on my phone to my itunes on my mac, the ringtone options are not showing up. I have the column checked to show ringtone availability on my itunes but the bell icon is not showing up in the column like it is in the iTunes store for these songs. Please Help.

Right click on the song in your library and choose create ringtone. It will bring you to iTunes to make one. If it is not allowed, then not much I can say from there. I find the icons in ones own library are never accurate. Sort of like it scanned once, but won't again.

HT1727 help how do i make a purchased song my ring tone, it;s not showing on my list for ringtones

help how do i make a purchased song my ring tone, it's not showing on my list for ringtones

This song was purchased from the iTunes Store?
If so, you can't create a ringtone from music that was purchased from the iTunes store, but if there is a ringtone available for purchase and download at the iTunes Store with this song, you need to do that.
For music in your iTunes library on your computer that was not purchased from the iTunes store, there are a number of ways to create a ringtone with such music. With a Mac, there is an inexpensive or free app avaiable via Apple's online App Store named Ringer. Ringer has access to all music and sound files in your iTunes library that was not downloaded from the iTunes Store for creating your chosen segment of the song to be used for the ringtone. The app places the created ringtone in your iTunes library under Tones for transfer to your iPhone when syncing.
Creating ringtones on a Mac can also be done with GarageBand, and there is a manual way of doing this with iTunes.

I purchased song on ipod but it does not show up. It took my money. When I go to repurchase it says 'already purchased'. Where the heck is it?

In iTunes select Store > Check for Available Downloads.
If that does not force the content to download, contact iTunes Support.

Ringtone option not showing up for certain songs in itunes

Ok, so some of my songs that I purchased on itunes are now ringtone eligible and the bell isn't showing up in my itunes. I have the most up to date version of itunes. I don't understand why a song that I have purchased in the last month that originally wasn't ringtone capable, but now is, itunes isn't giving me the option to make it a ringtone. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Help!!!

There has been a bug reported in iTunes with bell symbols disappearing...it happened to me once a couple weeks ago.
Right click on the song in your that you think is ringtone-capable and select "Create Ringtone". If the song really is ringtone-capable, it will open the ringtone creation window. If it's not ringtone-capable, you'll get an error message.

Ringtone option not showing up. what gives?

I'm having a weird issue in the new version of iTunes where my laptop shows the Ringtone feature,
but my desktop (with the same version of the software) does not. Though Ringtone shows
up in the View Options on my laptop, it does not show up in View Options on my desktop.
Same version of software, different computers, different results.
I suspect it has something to do with doing the firmware update for the iPhone on
the laptop? I've re-installed 7.4.2 on my desktop and ringtones don't show up
anywhere - under view options or anything.
Anyone else having a similar issue? Any advice?
Thanks much.

Log on to the iTunes store using your desktop and try again. It will then be in your view options.

HT201272 I updated my IPhone and it took away all music including my ring tones. I have been able to recover the songs but my ringtones are not showing under purchased. How do I get my ringtones back?

I updated my phone and all my music, including rigntones went away. I was able to recover my songs under purchased. My ringtones are not showing under purcahsed. How do I get my ringtones back?

I don't understand this answer. What do you mean " your contacts should be in whatever program/service you have selected to sync."? The address book is created on the phone not in Itunes or any other program/service. When Itunes says backing up phone I have to assume it backs up everything on the phone. Most of what's on my phone does not come out of itunes. I download apps directly on the phone. When the software updates it does not bring those apps back. I have to go into the appstore and install them all over again. Itunes music library syncs with whatever is on the device your linked up to BUT the phone book just dissappears after you update the phone. There is no way to save it anywhere else.

I recently bought a new iphone 5s from UAE , but unfortunately i did not find the facetime on my new iphone, how come that i bought a new iphone with missing options , please help

Your earlier phone must have been originally intended for sale in another country and must have been purchased from somewhere other than an authorized Apple retailer. Phones that are intended to be sold in the UAE have FaceTime permanently disabled. The option is not there and cannot be made to work.

I purchased a bunch of songs on my iPhone but they are not showing up on it my computer.

I purchased a bunch of songs recently on my iPhone but they are not showing up in iTunes on my computer. They have always shown up in the past but these few haven't. I usually do a manual upload and backup of my phone, as opposed to doing it via icloud.
In the meantime, I went to the purchases for my account and see that they are listed there and I hit "report a problem". But it doesn't even ask me what the problem is....
Is there anything else I can do?

Go to View->Account and verify you're logged into the same AppleID as the iPhone
Then go to iTunes->Preferences->Store and verify that "Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases" is checked.

Purchased songs on iphone don't transfer

This issue is going on for long time but Ithink now I'm getting closer to the problem. Basicaly from time to time some of my songs won't transfer to my iphone. I think I'm able to reproduce now this issue.
1) Purchuse a song on the iphone from itunes store
2) Song will go to purchased playlist
3) Once the song shows up in itunes put it in a playlist that will sync with iphone
4) Sync iphone
now song is no longer on iphone. When I check the number of songs on iphone vs what sync tab shows in itunes those numbers don't match (iphone is smaller by the number of songs that didn't sync). However if i browse iphone music in itunes those songs show up but grayed out. There is nothing I can do. I rebooted itunes, signed out from itunes stores. Anyone haviong same issue?

This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
This is a picture of what it looks like now:

As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
any way to get around that?

I deleted some of songs by iPhone.but now it until shows all that songs.they seems partially visible not like other song totally black.actual songs are 701 shown in setting.in the music it shows 901. How can I permanently delete them???

I called Apple and spoke with a customer service representative regarding this issue. I was given the two things to try, and if they don't work, I was told I can call back in:
1. Go to iCloud.com and look at the advanced options. Since Photos can be deleted here, the representative thought there may be an option to remove songs here as well.
2. Go into the library that has the songs that were deleted and click Update iTunes match.
I tried #1--this didn't resolve the issue, as there is no option to remove songs this way. I can't try #2 right now since I'm at work, but if anybody else with this issue can try that step it can help us get the ball rolling on it. After I try that, I'll call Apple back to discuss this further.

Why is the airdrop and airplay option not showing in my iphone 4s ?

airdrop and airplay option not showing

That link is addressing only iOS 7 in general, not the iPhone 4S specifically. I have already answered your question here: airdrop and airplay option not showing iPhone 4S, iOS 7.1.2. It is the same answer as what wjosten have provided in this post. Air Drop is compatible with iPhone 5 and later.

I purchased songs that are now reported as not authorized on this computer. When I authorize this computer I'm told it is already authorized. How can I access the 21 songs I purchased

I purchased songs that are now labeled as "not authorized on this computer" and won't be sync'd to my iPod. I then go to the store icon, click on authorize this computer and am told that it is already authorized. I have another 169 or so songs I have purchased and have no problem with those. Anyone know what might be happening? I'm not really a "technocrat" so I hope there is an easy answer.

Read the various Knowledge Base Articles on deauthorization & authorization. One of them should solve your problem.
Good luck!
