Ringtone not "authorized" to sync

I just bought a song from itunes and then i created a ringtone but it would not sync to my iphone. Does anyone have any tips? the error message i recieved was ""song name" was not copied to the iphone "my iphone" because you are not authorized to play it on this computer".

If your downloading ringers from Itunes AND then creating ringtunes im guessing via another program. Why dont u just skip step 1 and save yourself money as well. Google "IRinger". Its a program that exports any song on to your computer to Itunes and enables you to sync it onto your phone. It even opens up a custom ringer box in the settings of your Iphone. You can alos cut the song to start and stop whenever you want to. Saves alot more time and put a couple extra bucks back into your pocket!

  • Ringtone not authorizing for syncing

    I downloaded 3 songs today and purchased ringtones for them. Initially they did not sync to my iphone, and I read to authorize the computer. I did that and 2 of the 3 finally synced. Then I read further in trouble shooting to enable "show hidden folders" (or whatever it was) and to delete an SC folder elsewhere then reboot. I did that and went to authorize the computer again and it still is saying that the comp is already authorized but on syncing the phone I am prompted that I need to authorize to listen to the last ringtone. I'm out of ideas on how to fix this now, and being my first attempt at making a tone flopped and I purchased it too short then made another purchase, I've already paid for this ringtone multiple times. I just need to get it to my phone now.

    I just had the same thing. I purchased a song, then made a ringtone for iPhone and purchased that. Then went to sync and it said "Not synced because you are not authorized to play that song on this computer." Huh? This is the only computer I have. Maybe because the ringtone is for the iPhone, not for my computer? How do I get it on my iPhone after going to all the trouble to make one correctly?

  • IPhone not authorized to sync movie purchased on iMac

    I purchased a movie on my iMac using my apple id. When I sync my iPhone with my computer, I get a message saying that my device is not authorized to sync the movie. Can someone help me? Thanks!

    Hi bt,
    Download the Movie to your Mac via your Purchased option in the iTunes Store. Click on the iTunes Store, then click on the Movies tab, then click on Purchased under the Quick Links section on the right. Your movie should display with a little cloud next to it. Click on the cloud to download.
    Cheers,

  • Sync problem "not authorized to sync from this computer"!!

    When I want to sync my iphone with application that I download to my itunes in my comuter. it gives error and says you are not authorized to sync your iphone at this computer???Why not??

    Diane,
    I may have had another ID when I first started using iTunes - I just can't remember - I'll try to narrow it down using the smart playlist that you have suggested. As I'm thinking, I wonder if a disk that my daughter created for me a few years ago as a birthday gift (Dad's Mix) contained music that she had purchased with her account ID on iTunes, could be the culprit. Anyway, as I said, I'll try to whittle it down to isolate the songs that are generating the message. Thanks.

  • HT1977 It says that my computer is not authorized to sync apps to my ipod. How do i authorize it?

    It says that my computer is not authorized to sync apps to my ipod. How do i authorize it?  It tells me "go to store>authorize my computer" But i cannot find this anywhere!

    Open iTunes and from the Menu Bar select Store...
    From the Store menu, choose Authorize This Computer. (In earlier versions of iTunes, access this option from the Advanced menu).
    When prompted, enter your Apple ID and password, then click Authorize.

  • HT1386 When synching iPad to iMac, get a message saying I am not authorized to sync the iPad!

    Can't get iPad to recognize songs from computer.  Says I am not authorized to sync it.  songs are on the iPad but not bold, so can't play them.

    Launch iTunes. Click on Music under the Library Heading to get into your music library. Right click on one of the songs and select Get info. You will see the Apple ID with which the music was purchased in the lower right corner of the window.
    Obviously, this only works if the music was purchased from iTunes.

  • Recently getting "not authorized" to sync apps to computer

    For some reason I'm getting a "not authorized" to sync apps installed on my iPad to my computer. I've done it before, however, its not allowing me to sync now, even after I attempted to re-authorize with my correct account info.

    Fixed it by doubleclicking on the game in iTunes and authorizing it.

  • Ever since updating to IOS5 my iPhone will no longer sync with my iTunes on my computer. It states that my computer is not authorized to sync with my iPhone yet it is authorized. My "Music" folder on my iPhone is now showing as completely empty.

    Hey guys. Can you please help me? My iphone is not showing that I own ANY music anymore. It will not sync at all with my Itunes ever since downloading ios5. It states my computer is not authorized but it is...... I had no problems with my ipad, all of my music transferred just fine. I have no idea what to do now with my iphone except maybe a restore???
    You all are much smarter than me. ;-) Can you help? Thank you.
    Heather

    Guys, I found another user and what he said to do worked!!! I have copied the information below:
    This was 1 of the things that happend to me too, the other one was that at the bottom of the itunes page were it says all the memory info, it marked that I had over 3gb of other memory wich I didn't.
    Anyways what I did was to unmark the calendar, contacts etc. ( so that they wont sync with the computer ), pressed apply,  then I marked all of them again, apply again and for last I pressed Sync wich is at the bottom right coner by the apply botton.
    I'm not sure that had anything to do with it but it worked, my music appeard both of my itunes playlists and the ones I bought in itunes.  Also the other memory dissapeard and it's all good.
    I'm not sure this will help you but thats my 5 cents, if the problem continues its better to call customer service and ask for a technician.
    Hope your problem gets solved. Have a nice day.

  • Applications from my iTunes are NOT AUTHORIZED to sync with my iPhone

    Hi all, I need help!
    I had bought a new MacBook and while I downloaded some new applications in my new comp in the iTune store and try sync-ing them into my iPhone3G that had been previously sycn-ed with my ex-Mac computer, it pop-ed up a screen saying:
    "Some of the applications in your iTunes library were not installed on the iPhone because you are NOT AUTHORIZED for them on this computer."
    it happens on all 11 x applications I had downloaded. How come it says it is not Authorized??? And so, how can I make it work? Do I have to restore my phone with the new laptop to make them sync?

    Thanks!!! it's now working and syncing !!

  • Why is iTunes repeatedly saying that the comp is not authorized to sync with my iPhone despite having repeated the steps to authorize it??

    iTunes does not sync with my iPhone; saying that the comp has not been authorized to. It suggests that i authorized it by going to Store > Authorize This Computer. I did exactly that, and it still refuses to sync.
    I'm not able to sync my music, videos, photos, etc as a result.
    This occurred after i had synced my iPhone to another comp in another location recently.
    Please help!

  • Only iPod not authorized to sync?

    I bought an iPod Classic today and I keep getting a message saying that certain tracks are not authorized to play on this computer and so cannot be synced. I'm used to this, so I did my usual troubleshooting of playing the song and re-authorizing the computer. However, the iPod still says the computer is not authorized. I can play the songs on my computer, I can sync the songs to my iPhone, but the iPod refuses to sync them.
    Has anyone else seen this or know a way to fix?
    Thanks!
    -Stephanie

    This hasn't happened to me, but you're not alone. There are others experiencing the same thing. Try de-authorizing your computer, then re-authorize it again to see if that does it.

  • Not Authorized to Sync some songs

    Whenever I sync my iPhone all but 13 songs get sync'ed. The message says some of the items were not copied because this computer is not authorized. I followed directions that said to got to "STORE" and authorize this computer but that didn't work. To be clear the iPhone is new and the carrier is also new. This problem pre-dates the iPhone and started when I got a new computer.
    So, I have a new computer (6 months)
    new carrier, 2 weeks
    new device (iPhone) 1 week

  • Ringtone not authorized to play, EVEN THOUGH IT'S AUTHORIZED ON MY MAC!

    It all started today, while regular songs with FairPlay DRM continues to play fine, ringtones with FairPlay DRM stopped working all of sudden today.
    It continues to ask me to authorize account, then after trying to authorize for playback, it says it's already authorized to be played back on this mac. And the loop continues.
    I tried all the possible solution provided in Apple support notes, but nothing is working.
    Is there something wrong on the iTunes server, and that I should contact iTunes support for additional help? (I already de-authorized, authorized hundreds of times, nothing is working)

    I have seen multiple threads on this same topic posted over the past two weeks. It seems this may be a bug associated with the newest version of iTunes or an error on the iTunes server side of things. I find it hard to believe that this many users (myself included) are all of a sudden having this issue pop up in the last few weeks when I had never heard of or encountered this issue before.

  • Ringtones Not Listed Under "Sync Ringtones" List

    I recently converted one of my MP3s to AAC, found it in Finder, renamed the file extension to .m4r, and reimported it into iTunes. It shows it under the Ringtones playlist and plays just fine. When I plug in my iPhone, however, under the Devices -> Brent's iPhone -> Ringtones tab, no ringtones are listed. I have it currently set to "All ringtones", but none are listed in the list below anyway, and none sync.
    Why does my iTunes Ringtones list show one, but my Devices Ringtones list show none?

    I also got this problem which I still can not solve.
    Are playing time of ringtones you use less than 30 seconds? Have you changed to other computer for syncin? Did it work?
