Ringtone not sounding

I have the ringer volume up and set a ringtone. However now incoming calls only vibrate and flash the blue LED. The ringtone used to work but will not anymore. What's up?

Yea read about that too, I really don't wanna wipe it though that's just such a hassle. Motorola said that a fix should allow functionality of the smart profile after a software update to be released. Since there are rumors of Android 2.2 Froyo coming hopefully next week I'd guess they're coming together. Dunno if I'll have to do a factory reset anyway but holding out to see, I can deal with call vibrate only for a bit. If an update doesn't come soon then I'll reset.

Ringtone problem, assigned ringtones not working

I realized that the phone would not ring assigned ringtones. I made numerous phone calls to tech support and spent hours with them troubleshooting this problem. We tried everything
When your ATT account has caller ID block, in order to unblock the number so people can see your phone number you have to enter *82 in front of the phone number in contacts. In one of the first conversations I had with tech support I believe I mentioned this and was told that it should not cause a problem.
_**It does,_ if there is anything at all besides the phone number under the contact the phone will not recognize that the number has an assigned ring tone.
Also if you have the same number in contacts twice for any reason, (maybe a contact and under favorites) you have to delete the duplicate or assign the desired ringtone to all contacts. Otherwise the phone will ring the default ringtone, not the one you assigned.
I hope this helps someone not to have to spend hours workig on this problem

Hey there Taralynn7,
It sounds like you have assigned ringtones to some of your contacts, but the customized tones aren't playing, and instead you get a default ring when they contact you. Any number of things can cause that issue, so I would recommend starting by quitting all the open apps on your phone, and then restarting it:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

Where can I buy a ringtone that sounds like a phone?

I would like a ringtone that sounds like the phone on the Apple commercial. Where can I buy one? I'm over 30 y/o and I don't want music as a ringtone. Is that too much to ask?
I had one before I updated my Itunes, but Apple removed it from MY phone.
Thank you

Have to agree that while I love the iPhone, don't mind AT&T, am fine with it locked down and I never plan on hacking, when it comes to ringtones I feel Apple is just asking too much. Ok, I know the record industry won a court case saying a ringtone is a new work of art different from the original (which I disagree with) which gives them the law on their side saying they can charge for it (record industry wanted it this way as the artist doesn't get money from ringtone sales since they are considered a different work of art). But if I can make an MP3 myself (record my wife talking or record an old phone) then put it in iTunes and put it in my iPod player, why can I not put it as a ringtone since I legally own it. I made it thus not even the record industry can say I am stealing a piece of their work. On every phone that I owned since they had custom ringtones I have been able to put my own ringtones in free of charge (without hacking). I have always had recordings of my wife saying "Hey, sexy, your phone is ringing" or something similar. I hate that I cannot now when I have what I feel the best phone out right now.
Sorry Apple, I am on your side with all the bad PR coming your way about everything else, but Ringtones, come on. Go ahead and charge if iTunes knows it is your format and bought from your store thus you know the ringtone technically is the record guys art thus you have to charge to keep them happy, but if it is an MP3, technically you have no way of knowing if it is something you can charge for so just let it be free. You will make less money yes but there are plenty of non computer folks that just use iTunes and all thier stuff is from you and they will pay for ringtones.
Also, my wife (and I) was upset that we own a CD and I ripped it to MP3 and we own the songs legally, and she wanted a ringtone of one of the songs. Went to iTunes and saw I can make one (icon) but I couldn't click it because I would have to first buy the track from you (though I already have my copy) before I can opt to buy again a ringtone. You try to claim the price is .99 for a ringtone, but for everybody that had music before you guys, ringtones actually cost $2 if we want anything we already own.

HT2998 Hi, I try to conect Mac Mini from 2009 with my HD Tv Samsung F 6400 . With Mini Dvi conection and adapter to HDMI input in TV I got picture but not sound! I have analog cable from the phones out from mac but imposible to conect to TV? Can you HLP

Hi, I try to conect Mac Mini from 2009 with my HD Tv Samsung F 6400 . With Mini Dvi conection and adapter to HDMI input in TV I got picture but not sound! I have analog cable from the phones out from mac but imposible to conect to TV? Can you HLP?

You really need a newer Mac Mini with a true HDMI output, because that Mac Mini's DVI output does not support Audio.
You might try a 3.5mm to RCA adapter
from the Mac Mini's headphone jack to the TV's audio input,
but that would require being able to select the Audio input in the TVs menu while using it's HDMI input.
Optionally you could also use an external 2.1 Speaker System or patch the audio from the Mac Mini to your home stereo system to enhance that older Mac Mini's audio.

I am having trouble using reverb of any kind; it does not sound natural, but rather "pixilated." Does anyone have any ideas for a solution? I have used Silververb and Space Designer and am having the same problem...

I am using Logic Pro 9 with two MXL 990 microphones in my piano and a Rode NT1A for vocals. I have tried recording with added reverb and keeping getting not a natural reverb sound, but a rather "pixilated" one that does not sound natural. Does anyone have any ideas on how to solve this issue? I have tried using Silververb and Space Designer, and both result in the same problems. Thank you!

This is asking for the impossible! It does not sound natural because maybe it isn't and in judging so whats your reference anyway. If you are in dire need of some natural sounding room you can go and record it yourself. But even then, the chances that it sounds like you imagined it, are very slim.
There are very decent sounding reverberation plugins, based on artificial reverb generators or convolution-style, the last one is said to sound more 'natural' then the first one. Be it as it maybe, it really is like cooking food. You got all the ingredients for this delicious taste at hand and believe it or not to reach a satisfying result this is not enough, because if you do not mix the ingredients in the right proportion you will end up with a different dish you thought you'll get. This is exactly the same when one would mix audio, I dare say.
So treat yourself to some good ingredients and the rest is up to you, namely: taste and experience!
And looking at some of my past music productions I always find the same plugins for the 'ambient' task:
Altiverb by Audio Ease when I have acoustic ensembles (classical music mostly), the Sony Oxford Reverb in studio productions, Bricasti when I have to deal with drums and MMultiBandReverb from MeldaProduction for all-round stuff. Thats the base I start from, after that I can end up with dozen Reverb plugins which basically all are doing the same thing but just in a tiny different way.

I have a nearly identical problem with my Ipad 3. Mine is the left channel. I've yet to find help, but have found a number of other posts on this and other forums discussing the issue. People have tried restore, reset etc. Also, cleaning the ports with compressed air or cotton swabs. It appears to be a software issue, but no one is sure.
Along with the original poster, I'd appreciate any help.
As far as the 'level 6' poster, if you're going to be rude, please don't bother. Hope it was just a bad day.

Problem w/iMovie if you renamed a soundtrack that was used in a project. Will appear a warning sign and will not sound even if you replace or drag a new soundtrack.

Let's say you have a project in iMovie and after you include your imported videos, pictures, etc, then you add a couple of soundtrack songs from your iTunes Library. It works fine!.
If for some reason, later on, you decide to rename the soundtrack song in your iTunes library, when you return to iMovie it will display a yellow warning sign at the begining of the soundtrack or (voice over file) and it will not play the song. You cannot hear it.
Of course I guess it is due to a "missing" reference (as you renamed the one that you iniitally used).
The logical step would be to either deleted or replace that song in your iMovie project and drag the one with the "new name" or even a newone or different one.
It still not playing or you can not hear the audio.
Note that from this point on, any song that you want to add to your project it will simply not sound. If you have in this project other soundtrack songs that were not renamed, it will still sound in your project. I mean, you can still hearing all those that were previously working and you did not make the "mistake" of renaming or modifying some information of your song. BUT, ANY sound, song, voice over, that you want to include, add, replace, etc. WILL SIMPLY NOT WORK.
It is like you have been denied to add or replace or re-arrange any sound from now on ON THIS SPECIFIC project as you may create new project and those song will work fine in the new project.
The problem is that take a lot of work if you have to start your project from zero again. (The "Duplicate Project" option will simply not work as it "duplicate" the problem).
In other project I was working, now I realize that did happen exactly the same, but a that time it was related with still pictures. (I guess I changed "something" or deleted one of the still pictures) and from that point on, any still picture that I wanted to include in the project, It allows me to drag it but when you try to play it, iMovie just ignore it. It appears in the project sequence but simply is not displayed in the movie.

Hello tmock,
Welcome to the forum. It certainly would be an odd experience to attempt a common occurrence such as a simple exchange of the headphones you received as a gift for another item, and have it almost result in authority involvement! It sounds like the sales associate might have made a mistake processing the transaction, and I can understand not wanting to leave your gift behind with the uncertainty that you would ever hear from anyone again. I truly apologize for any unpleasant experience this may have caused.
I would be happy to look into this further to see if I can help you get the PS4 you wanted as an exchange, so if you could send me the information of the store you visited, I would appreciate it very much. Once I have this information, I will follow up with you as soon as possible.
Thank you for visiting the forum to share your feedback, and I look forward to continuing to work with you.

My recorded signal is not sounding like the signal I am monitoring.

My recorded guitar is not sounding like the signal I am monitoring. It sounds very good when recording, but lacks energy and detail when it is played back. If I am using input/direct monitoring am I also bypassing the Analog to Digital converters? Could this explain the difference in sound quality?
Would it be the same to monitor a signal directly out of the sound card and to monitor "through" Logic?
My sound card is a Presouns Firepod.

No.

Consult the manual of that device, to see if you can learn from where in the signal chain it gets your direct monitoring from --- PRE conversion or POST conversion... My bet is that it is pre conversion.

Why does my nano make a multi note sound and skip songs

When hooked up to a memorex ipod stereo, my iPod Nano (6th gen) VERY frequently will begin playing a song (while on shuffle/all songs) and after a few seconds or sometimes after a minutes or so the stereo will emit a multi-note sound and skip to the next song in the rotation. VERY ANNOYING to say the least. Is there anyone out there having this problem?

If it only happens when using Memorix iPod stereo, you need to contact their tech support.

Can't get ringtone to sound

Can't get ringtone to sound.

What troubleshooting steps have you taken so far?
For example, have you looked at your Ringer/Silent switch yet?

I just recently purchased an iphone 5s and today my speaker located at the rear end of my device is not sounding clearly, it sound muffed and blurry. Is there any way I could get a new one or get this fix for free?

Hi Jayliin,
Take it to the Apple Store where you purchased it from. It is still under warranty. They will replace it if necessary.

Allocated Ringtones not working

Hi all,
I have several ringtones I have allocated to different contacts but when the phone rings it is always the default ringtone, not the one I picked
Any ideas?
Thanks
B

I believe this is a known issue with Apple.
One thing to take a look at, and this isn't my observation but another poster's, is what initially comes up when someone calls you. Sometimes what can happen is that when you first receive the call, it comes up as "Unknown" and then quickly switches over to your contact. So if the phone doesn't recognize the caller until it's too late, it'll play the default ringtone.
